herculaneum ercolano

在去庞贝玩了之后的同一天我们又去了海格立斯城。我们是下午比较晚的时候才到的,到的时候那里都没什么人了,感觉好像整个地方都是我们的了,导游带我们去了古城里的每一个地方,太完美。因为意大利人素质都很高,因此在那里一点不会感觉到太商业化的景区,一切还还是保持原样很漂亮。里面很多区域的艺术品和室内装饰都比庞贝城里的保存得要好,超赞的。如果你顺路要去庞贝的话,千万不要错过这里,因为这两个地方离得很近。很值得一游。

一定要来赫库兰尼姆。布局紧凑,方便游览,虽然大多景点都有标识,如果没有陪同介绍的话,最好还是租用一个音频导游。上周我去参观的时候浴室没有营业,真不走运,大部分地方是开放的,包括巨型神龛和奥古斯都大殿。古代的海岸线和船库不允许进入参观,在入口处可以看个清楚。墙上画作保存完好,颜色依旧,镶嵌画是一大亮点。不能拿这里和庞培作比较。虽然这两个地方都由于同一个大爆发被掩埋,但赫库兰尼姆的城镇在面积上要小许多,而且它的位置就在埃尔科拉诺的现代郊区,被火山岩浆而非浮石掩埋,所以古代的东西保存得很好。在入口处可以看到船棚的木制门廊和小木船,让人难以置信。这里还有一个餐馆,但我去的时候也没开门。基础设备完善(最好使用语音导游处那个卫生间,比售票处的人少些)。书店有各种各样的资料,我买东西的时候员工要么在讲电话,要么在闲谈,这服务态度可不好。赫库兰尼姆和庞培在同一条火车线路上,很容易抵达,比庞培还少几个站。要给那些独自旅行或结伴出游的女性朋友们提个醒,游览完景点之后我在埃尔科拉诺的火车站月台上被人骚扰了,光天化日之下啊,那个怪里怪气的男的一路尾随我上了火车,走了好几节车厢,一路上盯着我看,一直到我在加里波第的广场下车。也许是我自己运气不好吧,但还是注意为好。千万不要一个人站在月台上,和其他人挨着站比较好,一旦有人靠近或是要摸你,或是说脏话,一定要大声呼救。赫库兰尼姆真是太赞了,不容错过。

比庞贝古城稍微小一点,不过还是很值得一游的,去到这里你就可以想象到古罗马时代人们的生活。坐火车过去,下了火车之后走15分钟就能到。不过售票处可真是够不正规的,只能付现金,不能刷信用卡,早上10点的时候没有英文的导游册,没有地图也没有语音导游之类的东西。

我很喜欢参观赫基雷尼亚(Herculaneum),甚至要多于庞贝(Pompei)。这里会小一些,不过人要少很多。这里面没有食物和水,所以你最好从市中心带一些进来。有声的导游器非常超值。另外一个加分点是售票处令人愉悦的工作人员。这是我们在那不勒斯遇到最好的工作人员。一定要去啊。地点就在距离赫基雷尼亚(Herculaneum)火车站500米的地方。

我们十月初去了赫库兰尼姆(herculaneum),令人惊叹,这里比庞贝古城(pompeii)小,但是我觉得这里更好。你能真正体验到那时的生活是什么样的,那些遗迹比庞贝保存得好,你还可以看出一些建筑墙上的颜色,有些还保有屋顶。你在那里的时候可以真正感受到命运来临的那天到底发生了什么,特别是维苏威火山(mount vesuvius)就屹立在其后。我们在那里的时候正有一些修复工作,不过不影响参观。赫库兰尼姆唯一的缺点是旅游区的公共厕所太脏了,尽量不要用。

Took the train from Rome to Naples and the short commuter train to Ercolano. A 5 minute walk down the hill and you can step back 2500 years into the bustling world of ancient Herculaneum. Make sure you hire an audio guide, which is very good, or you'll not be able to fully appreciate the sight.The most fascinating thing we did on our trip. Be sure to check out the Archeological Museum in Naples to see the original frescoes and mosaics.

Amazing, we returned to view again. Definitely not to be missed - good wall paintings and complete buildings.

We combined our visit to Ercolano Scavi with a hike up the Vesuvius. The city itself is very easy to be reached by train, after that it is a short (10/15 min walk) up to the excavation site.Walking around, we were quite impressed by the good state of several of the buildings at the site as well as the details that were still maintained and that could be viewed (such as fresco's and mosaic tiling). Also a plus is that you can explore the site yourself and do not have to take a mandatory guided tour. All in all, it was quite an impressive site (especially with the Vesuvius still looming in the background and the thought that an explosion of the very same vulcano buried the entire Ercolano city so many year ago). Entrance fees are quite steep (EUR 12 pp) but well worth it.

If you have just one ancient site to visit in Campania - Make it Herculaneum! It is better preserved than Pompeii, and involves less walking and more visiting different buildings within the ancient city.

We last came here 30 years ago and since then a lot more care is being taken of these amazing relics. It is a lot smaller than Pompeii - even so we were wandering the streets for at least 4 hours and were totally engrossed. Get the audio to go round and follow the numbers in sequence. The Roman baths here are the best preserved I have seen. A lot of work is still being done to preserve this site as in Pompeii, so don't be too disappointed if you can't get in everywhere. This is an amazing step back in time to immerse yourself in for a few hours.

Went to visit this site as I was advised it was much better than Pompei and it worked out to be one of the best visits I have ever made take the train to Ercolano and its a 10 minute walk to the site. The cost of a guide sounds expensive at 40 euros but it is worth every euro. We had a young archaeologist who made the visit very memorable by being able to point out and explain things you would have missed if you tour on your own.Wonderfully preserved structures murals mosaic and the buildings contained original items still as they were found. Don't miss out on this trip.

We went in February, and, even then the train (Circumvesuviana) was packed, so be prepared to stand for 20 mins. There's a 10 min. walk downhill to the site (so remember it's uphill on the way back!). There's no café, (just vending machines). The site itself is, of course, fantastic, and there were hardly any visitors. As it's small, it's a lot more manageable than Pompeii. However, lots of the buildings were closed.

I'm the type who loves castle ruins, archaeology, and history in general. This place was like a playground for me. Many of the buildings here still had furniture inside, and most still had the original artwork on the walls including some of the most beautiful tile-murals. There are some great documentaries about this site which are helpful to put into perspective how people here lived. It's amazing to think that the peoples' quality of life in these days was unmatched until recent times.

We visited this site on the awy back to Naples from Sorrento. Compared with Pompeii it is much smaller and two hours is sufficient to see all that is available. There were not many visitors to be seen during our stay. We were surprised by this. The audio guides are average as is found at many similar attractions. It is very easy to get around the site. The issue that we found is the same at many sites in Italy and Greece. There is a lack of clear signs and information that makes it easy to find your way around and to be clear what you are actually looking at. I was told by a friend that Herculaneum was far better than Pompeii, but overall I thank it is on a par

Couldn't believe just how well preserved this place is! The audio guide isn't the best, and the dudes voice is quite annoying after a while, but to be honest it was a good introduction and if I am honest, I am glad I bought the guide :) €6 for one €10 for two....you need to leave some Id and collect it when returning the guide. What you see here is fascinating. A true feel of how life was for the Romans...and also the skeleton's lieing next to the ancient beach.....don't want to spoil it for you though! The best food we had in the 3 days in campania was in the little rresturant at the far end of the car park. You have to go up some spiral staircase (health and safety would've closed the stairs in the UK lol) but trust me, the food is the absolute business. A simple caprese and pasta, good pizza......mamma Mia!
