POMPEII THE EXHIBITION MINI BUS TRIP

In the year 79 A.D., Pompeii vanished beneath a thick layer of volcanic

ash let by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. But

what nature destroyed, it also preserved. Pompeii: The Exhibition features over 150 precious artifacts on loan from the Naples National Archaeological

Museum in Italy, which offer a glimpse into opulent lifestyle and tragic end of this ancient Roman society forgotten for centuries until its rediscovery over 250

years ago. Through excavated artifacts, multimedia experiences, and hand-on science exhibits, guests will learn the science of archaeology, volcanology, and Roman

engineering while exploring the ancient civilization of Pompeii.
