Pompeii

Next, head to the Necropolis of Nocera Portal, located by the namesake southern entrance of the city walls.

Amphitheatre of Pompeii

On the next step, visit the Amphitheatre of Pompeii on the south-eastern side of the ruins. Built in 70 BC, the oldest Roman Amphitheatre could hold up to 20,000 spectators from Pompeii and nearby towns. The simplistic yet impressive design of grandiose construction, which would host chariot racing, gladiator fights, and animal hunts, set a model for more advanced amphitheaters throughout the Roman colony.

Palestra Grande

Proceed to discover another ancient sports facility: Palestra Grande (Great Gymnasium of Pompeii), just opposite the amphitheater. The wide, open courtyard with a swimming pool at the center used to be a training ground for gladiators or a meeting center for young citizens encouraged to improve their intellectual and physical strengths.

Via dell’Abbondanza

Then, join Via dell’Abbondanza (Street of Abundance), the main artery of the ancient Pompeii. The stone cobbled road with raised walkways on either side is also the longest street of the ancient city, lined by numerous fountains and a number of significant sites, such as House of Venus in the Shell, House of Julius Polybius, and most notably The School of Gladiators.

House of Menander

Lastly, visit the House of Menander, one of the richest and most magnificent of the ruins. The ancient Roman residential complex with elaborate architecture takes its name from the striking fresco of the ancient Greek dramatist Menander hung inside the house, together with many other extravagant decorations, implying that the discerning owner of the house could have been a wealthy and influential aristocrat at the time.
