Ercolano - Part II

We were stunned by Ercolano because it's so much more complete it's even better than Pompei!! Our experience was enhanced by the dramatic sound and light show provided courtesy of a massive thunderstorm that was going on whilst we were there.

One of the many fresco's


Street number IV - only three out of the five streets have been excavated - the "modern" town of Ercolano was built over the others and it looks like the archeologists are tunnelling under the town to explore more.



One of the mosaics.



Em tries out one of the Roman baths.... a little more water, oh and a glass of wine please!
