The first images of this set are of the small port town of Bari, with its Norman Castle. A great place to stop in for a pizza and a walk through the charming old town.
The rest of the images are of the archeological site of Pompeii, an ancient Roman city completely covered in volcanic ash and thereby presreved in 79 AD. If you're unfamiliar with the history of this city, please refer to the Wikipedia article (yep, I'm lazy) and then enjoy the images!
