Naples Trip

Castel at Baia

The Solfatara: Ancient entrance to the Underworld
|
The first day of the trip was spent in the lands of Greek and Roman
mythology. We first stopped at the excavations of the ancient Greek city
of Cumae where the legendary sibyl resided and gave words of wisdom to
visitors where Prof. Laura Flusche lectured on the Aeneid. We
then visited the ancient Roman resort town of Baia and concluded the day at
what was believed in ancient times to be the entrance to the underworld: the
Solfatara at Pozzuoli.

The second day we spent in the city of Naples, with a morning walk
through the old quarter of Naples and an afternoon visit to the
archeological museum. Our hotel for both nights overlooked the bay of
Naples.

On the way back to Rome, we stopped at the village of Sperlonga, where
the emperor Tiberius had his villa and Odysseus was believed to have
encountered the sirens.
