Transfer From Naples Train Station/area to Sorrento 2hr stop in Herculaneum
Overview
The city of Herculaneum was accidentally found during the excavations for expanding a well in 1709. The excavations began only in 1764 then resumed in 1823 then stopped again in 1875, until they finally restarted in 1927. You will see narrower streets with normal height sidewalks, as the city was already provided with a sewer system unlike Pompeii, which was not equipped with it. Moreover the town had a city aqueduct that allowed rich people to have water directly in their houses. There is a good preservation of the houses in Herculaneum that are visibly more luxurious than Pompeii’s; the reason is to be attributed to the blanket of mud and to high pyroclastic materials from 10 to 25 meters high, which solidified until getting a rock floor called "Pappamonte" , a material quite similar to tuff. A residential location inhabited by the Roman aristocracy, differently from Pompeii, which was a working city.
