RE: The Incredible City of Pompeii

in #photofeed7 years ago

I've heard many times of Pompeii but never would I have imagined what it would be to be walking in it. Once a thriving and sophisticated Roman city, Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. It is over 64 acres large and use to be inhabited by about 20,000 people. It felt like we could not completely explore it in a single day.

I watched a movie that tells the story of the great empire Pompeii in 2016. The movie showed how the empire entertained themselves in with gladiators fighting to the death and towards the end everywhere began to collapse. The volcano erupted and consumed every living being.

You should watch it!!... It very interesting and captivating. At some point I got angry at the concept of the movie but I later realized it was a real story.
