6. Pompeii
When Mt Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, it engulfed the whole city of Pompeii and its many innocent lives were buried under thick layers of volcanic lava and ash. This is what makes Pompeii the most visited destination in Italy and it attracts thousands of visitors that come here to witness this ancient city of Rome that now lies in ruins. You can get a glimpse of the lives of early settlers in this city that’s dotted with ruins of bath houses, brothels and bakeries.
