Rome PART ONE

A week ago I went to rome and Pompeii.


Pompeii


Pompeii is a roman city that got destroyed by mount vesuvius in AD 79 close to Naples. 

The volcano mount vesuvius destroyed Pompeii and covered it in ash.
It has been being restored for over 200 years.



Villa Fauna

Villa Fauna is the remains of a large luxurious villa that was owned by the Satrii family who also lived there. You know they rich were by the fact they had coloured marble floors,  because black marble was much cheaper.
It is called house of the faun  because of the bronze dancing faun [which was origanaly supposed to be a satyr]
