Celebrating a day marked with so much death and destruction can be a sensitive thing, however there are a few ways to do this. Watching a documentary on Mount Vesuvius, or on any of the many locations destroyed is a way to remember it.
Or you could make a model volcano and make it erupt, just like the science fair projects of your youth. One could always go and look up what was lost in Pompeii, or how the mountain is made safer in the event of a future eruption.
Visiting Mount Vesuvius is, of course, possible, as in 1995 the entire mountain was declared a national park.
Italian authorities are very carefully monitoring the volcano, and make many attempts and watch very many different things about Mount Vesuvius in order to protect those nearby.
Despite the dangers, Mount Vesuvius is a beautiful area to visit, with the entire mountainside, and even inside the crater is filled with shrubbery and various plants.
So take a trip, if you can, and enjoy good Italian cuisine, and see one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world on this year’s Vesuvius Day.
You can also use this date to further your knowledge about volcanoes. If you do a bit of digging online, you will see that there is plenty of information about volcanoes.
You can learn all about eruptions, as well as some of the most famous ones. You can also learn about all of the different volcanic features, including volcanic cones, lava domes, fissure vents, and much more. You can also read about the effects that volcanoes have, apart from the obvious destruction.
If all of this has interested you about Pompi and Mount Vesuvius, you could even organize a trip to go and visit this part of Italy at some point. It is a stunning location, and you are bound to have a great vacation if you decide to go here.
You can head to places like Sorrento, Pompei, and Naples, and you can easily take a bus up to Mount Vesuvius. It is incredibly to visit this part of the world and to think about what happened there so many years ago.
