Honeymoon Part II - Pompeii






















We visited a brothel during our honeymoon. It was a great experience! There was a really long queue to get in, so must be a popular spot. This was one of the many interesting places to visit in the fascinating city of Pompeii. What was amusing was the sign on the road that pointed to where the brothel entrance was (see photo above). We were really amazed walking through the ancient ruins of Pompeii and understanding what life would have been like about 2000 years ago, before the city and its inhabitants were covered by volcanic rock spitting out of Mt Vesuvius when it erupted on August 24, 79A.D.
P.S. The 4th photo from the top is of a bakery.
