Pompey

A must place to visit if in Naples, Pompey after much excavation, offers a window to the lifestyle of wealthy Romans who kept luxurious vacation homes. It all came to an end in August of 79 AD when Vesuvius erupted and buries the town. The place is not far from Naples and can be reached by the Circumvesuviana rail road.
