Pure history

I’m Neapolitan but I had never been to the excavations of Pompeii, or maybe I had been there as a child and I don’t remember it, I love to travel and I put culture first in every trip, I always look for destinations that have a lot to tell but what I saw on Sunday at the excavations was something that I can’t describe, a magical place where you see yourself catapulted into another era where you can see and touch the real story that you can’t perceive in the history books .. 10 stars would deserve
