 ⛪️🤫The Secret Under the Church , The Roman Villa in Positano 79 AD💎🏺

 🖼️ The Roman Villa of Positano is a hidden treasure located 11 meters (about 36 feet) underneath the famous church with the gold dome in the center of town.

It was a luxury "vacation home" for a rich Roman official. In 79 AD, when Mount Vesuvius erupted (the same volcano that destroyed Pompeii), mud and ash covered this house and kept it hidden for almost 2,000 years.

🖼️The walls are covered in beautiful paintings (frescoes). Because they were buried for so long, the colors like bright blue and deep red look like they were painted yesterday.

🖼️You can see pictures of mythical creatures like winged horses, dolphins, and seahorses on the walls.

🏛️It was only fully opened to the public recently (in 2018), so it is much newer and "fresher" than many other Roman ruins.

📍Location : Villa Romana (MAR - Museo Archeologico Romano)

Piazza Flavio Gioia, 7, 84017 Positano (SA)
