Partially surrounded by the caldera of the ancient Mount Somma, Vesuvius looms over the Gulf of Naples, dominating the skyline for miles around. It is the only active volcano in mainland Europe, best known for the eruption of 79 CE that buried the flourishing Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Beneath layers of ash and rock, the remnants of this ancient civilization lay frozen in time, untouched by the rays of the sun for over 1500 years. Myths and legends surround Mount Vesuvius, hinting at the dangers that hide behind its bucolic exterior while adding to its allure. Perched on the western coast of Italy, Mount Vesuvius' formidable shape can be spotted from a vantage in the ruins of Pompeii.
