Herculaneum- Pompeii’s less famous neighbor. What’s left of a kitchen after Vesuvius erupted #InStone #Italy #Ercolano
Herculaneum. I found this place 100x better than pompeii (maybe because i'm lazy and there's less walking) but because of the amount that is preserved, it really does give you a feel of what it was like here. This picture was inside of a church ( i think?) and to imagine that this survived a volcanic eruption!? Overall it was a great day out, very educational ( I recommend a tour guide or a headset). Great location, surrounded by places to eat etc. and the train station is roughly 5-10 min walk down a straight road as you leave the station! 📸: Go Pro ( Hero 4)

Well worth a trip to this - smaller than Pompei but great.

Nicer than Pompeii and it has plenty of shade as the houses are more or less intact.

Fantastic ruins to visit to compliment a visit to Pompei. Although its smaller, the ruins are equally fascinating.
