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.
