You step from an air-conditioned vehicle into the heat-hardened silence of a city frozen mid-stride. Cobbled streets of Pompeii run underfoot, doorways open to shadowed atriums and frescoed walls that still hold pigment after nearly two millennia. The guide moves between houses and forums, translating plaster and pottery into human routines — bakeries, baths, children playing — while the silhouette of Vesuvius watches from the horizon.
