I am excited to visit Herculaneum with my spouse, Fatoumata, during our 12-day stay in December. This ancient city, preserved under volcanic ash, offers a fascinating glimpse into Roman life. We plan to immerse ourselves in the rich history and explore nearby attractions like Vesuvius National Park. Our stay at Miglio D'Oro Park Hotel will provide the perfect base, offering modern comforts and a tranquil setting in Ercolano. We chose this accommodation for its proximity to cultural sites and the serene gardens where we can unwind after a day of exploration.
