Oplontis is an archaeological site in Italy, located near the modern town of Torre Annunziata, in the Bay of Naples. By availing of this priority entrance ticket, there is no necessity to endure the queue as you can swiftly bypass it. A multilingual audio guide in Italian, English, French, and Spanish will be furnished, and you can conveniently download it directly onto your mobile phone to acquire comprehensive information about the villa.
The primary structure open to visitors is the Villa of Poppaea. Constructed in the mid-1st century B.C., the villa underwent expansion during the imperial era and was undergoing restoration at the time of the volcanic eruption. Scholars attribute the ownership of this villa to Poppaea Sabina, who was the second wife of Emperor Nero. The archaeological site features a delightful garden for visitors to explore, along with captivating frescoes and various other Roman ruins.
