Tempio di Giove Capitolino, Pompeii, Italy The Temple of Jupiter dominates the northern side of the Forum, and Vesuvius rises spectacularly behind it. With the deduction of the colony (80 BC) the temple was the subject of a radical renovation and became a real Capitolium, with the three cult statues of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva, which imitated those of the Capitolium in Rome, placed on a high base, so as to make them visible to those passing through the Forum square.
10 minutes
Macellum, Pompeii, Italy The Macellum consists of a tuff quadriporticus with a hall for worship in an elevated position on the eastern side, in line with the entrance. The Macellum of Pompeii was nothing more than the city market where people could buy food. Located north-east of the Forum, the complex had to remain out of the way from the square so as not to create too much crowding, given the high number of people who certainly frequented it.
The walls of the porticoes were decorated with scenes from daily life, such as selling fish and poultry, and mythological subjects. 10 minutes
Via dell’Abbondanza, Pompeii, Italy Via dell'Abbondanza is one of the main streets of the ancient city of Pompeii, in Campania, which connected the Forum with the Amphitheatre.
Stabian Baths (Terme Stabiane), Pompeii, Italy The Stabian Baths were built at different times. The initial phase of construction dates back to the 4th BC. (the gym with the trapezoid base). The main entrance by via dell'Abbondanza leads to a large courtyard. The pool is found to the left, whereas a colonnade is found to the right, which leads to the men's quarters, which are split into the apodyterium (dressing room), with the frigidarium (for cold baths), which leads to the tepidarium (for medium temperature baths) and then to the calidarium (for hot baths).The heating was guaranteed by a piping system in the walls and double floors that circulated the hot air coming from the furnaces and from mobile braziers. The women's quarters, close to the men's quarters, was split the same way in the apodyterium, tepidarium and calidarium. However, all were smaller and had no rich decorations as the men's quarters.) The baths that we can admire today were built in the 2nd century BC, a period in which Pompeii underwent a major building renovation. In the spa not only did people bathe, but they also discussed politics, battles, trials, women... it was the city living room where the events of the day were discussed.

Had been to Pompeii 20 years ago,but it rained the entire time. So, we finally made it back. The tour was very different in that there were things I wanted to see again, but the quide did not take us there, ie murals . 95% of this tour was outside. We only saw a few of he unfortunate souls who lost their lives, instead of the the many I remember. The quide was Italian & some of us felt she was hard to understand & catered more to the very few Italians that were in our group.

Fantastic guide in Paola throughout the day and excellent tour around Pompeii which was just the right length to keep everyone interested. My son left his sunglasses at a market stall. Paola went above and beyond to not only track them down but then send back to us in the U.K. What a superstar you are Paola!
