Color photo looking down upon a stony Roman street leading up to and through the Nocera entrance gate in the walls of Pompeii. There are ruins of Roman buildings next to the street and beyond the gate. Looming in the background behind the town is the conical shape of the volcano Vesuvius whose eruption destroyed the town almost 2000 years ago.
