Très décevant, malgré les heures d'ouverture marquées sur les sites du parc et les sites commerciaux, c'est fermé. Attention si vous prévoyiez de visiter, apparemment, c'est très souvent fermé
Pausilypon was the Villa d’otium build by roman knight Publio Vedio Pollio. When Pollio died (15 b.C.) it was given in legacy to the emperor Augustus, becoming an official imperial estate. It is located in one of the most fascinating places in Naples with a fantastic view over the Bay of Naples.The gateway to the villa was given by the monumental Seiano’s cave (a tunnel 770 meters long caved in the hillside of Posillipo).
Great spot in the heart of Napoli. Really recommended for locals and tourists!
Very nice archaeological park of a villa on the sea. It is between many private homes on semi-private land. The access via an 800m long tunnel made at Roman times is really neat. The remains are not as impressive as the site is.
Outstanding archeological memento of the Roman age. The guided tour is great, and walks you through what the site originally was. Stunning views as well!Amazing place must add to your visit list. Tricky to get to, the buses are every hour!
