I visited Pompeii last year (August 2022) its a fascinating place to visit, especially for someone who studied geology and loves history. I was a bit disappointed that some areas can only be visited certain times of the week, (at least that's what our tour guide told us) but to say I was there, will be a memory I will hold dear for the rest of my life.

Communal bread ovens were still in use not that long ago… my Italian husband has talked about taking his mother’s bread/focaccia to the local oven and they even had a family stamp for identification. This was in the 1980s

Pompeii is so beautiful and a wonder for all who visit the ancient Roman city. We have learnt much about the lives of people living there almost 2000 years ago. I think when visiting we must do so with reverence for those who died in the volcanic eruption.

I visited there in 2009 and for me it was transformative in many ways. It really taught me that there is no real difference between a human born 10,000 years ago and one born 10 hours ago. Sure the modern baby may be much healthier, but only in relatively wealthy countries near cities with a lot of resources---one born today in rural nowhere would be virtually indistinguishable physically from one born in Pompeii 2100 years ago. The only difference is what we are taught after we are born. So, when others sometimes say "oh, people don't do / say / think that anymore...", I say BS. We haven't changed one bit; we are just healthier and have more knowledge.

I visited Pompei years ago and it was great even if the experience was generally ruined by the presence of a lot of loud turists going around in shorts and t-shirts. And in fact the only magical moment of my visit happened when I accidentally entered the amphiteatre (very well preserved) from the entrance used by the gladiators so I was basically at the center of it and it was completely deserted.

Your special spiritual moment doesn’t actually reflect reality while your experience of walking through the city amongst a thronging, loud crowd actually replicated what it really would have been like much better. Down to the multiculturalism within the city! Too bad you weren’t able to appreciate it and instead felt like you needed complete privacy to have a special moment.

The presence of modern people lessened that possibility but I didn't say I didn't enjoy the visit to the rest of the city. Probably your attitude towards ancient ruins is not the same as mine for me it's a sort of strange connection to the events that occurred there so you can't understand what I mean.

People are still unearthing more of Pompeii that they did before. But also finding more bodies of those who died on that awful day.

I strongly advise anyone to visit Pompei. You will be stunned by what you will see and what your senses will experience while walking in a real Roman city of 2000 years ago. It shows how advanced and modern was the Roman civilization. In few words they set the base for the western world as we know it now. 😊

I realize that while technology and clothing has changed, basic human desires, behavior, and the culture that comes from that has not changed at all.

Absolutely fascinating. It’s insane how closely people from so long ago lived just we do now. The fountain plumbing?!
