🇮🇹Ruins of Herculaneum Walking Tour - Walk and Learn about the ruins with City Walks 4K!

See chapters below. We are continuing our exploration of ancient Roman ruins in Southern Italy. Herculaneum was a small location for the rich that Vesuvius destroyed in the 79AD eruption. To compare Herculaneum vs. Pompeii consider that When Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D, it covered the city with ash instead of pumice. Hence, the ruins are actually much better preserved. However, it's a much smaller archeological park which makes it much more approachable. It's a short but straightforward walk from the train station. Many people catch a bus from the train station up to Vesuvius and then tour Herculaneum afterwards. Unfortunately, they were doing construction work up at Vesuvius so it was closed while we were in the area. You can totally tour Herculaneum without a guide or with a downloadable phone app. The site is small and there are plenty of restaurants just outside the gates. You can stay at hotels or vacation apartment rentals in Naples, Sorrento, or the little cities in between.

If you wish to visit Herculaneum, you can get tickets in the visitor center and they have lockers too. To get to Herculaneum from Naples, you can just take the train.

The Herculaneum Scrolls have recently made the news following a new scientific technique that promises to allow the full reading of these ancient documents.
