What's your favorite ancient city?
Pompeii! thank you for this video 🤩
Herculaneum.
Jerusalem!❤
Without a doubt has to be Pompeii for me, also I thought I had seen everything on this ancient tomb but this was totally refreshing...thank you
@@sacha4566 Yuck!
What fascinates me about Pompeii is how for all intents and purposes life wasn't so different 2000 years ago.
Yes it was, you can't get away with those murals nowadays 🤣🤣 🙋
@@rodriguezmarina5156 Have you seen the house with the painting of that one God with the really large penis?
Lol.
I hate 😮
Oh it was very different. Roman society was a slave society. That changes everything.
@@rodriguezmarina5156or the slave at the door
Imagine all the other lost Roman cities, this is only one of many
How many Roman cities were there?
@@punyaslokmohapatra7528 More than 400 hundreds.
@@punyaslokmohapatra7528 a lot. considering the vastness of the Roman Empire and the centuries for which it existed, there must be at least several thousands of lost establishments. it makes you wonder what life was like during completely forgotten times.
I think about that all the time ... Crazy to think in 2,000 years ago our biggest cities of today will suffer a similar fate.
They are all below the great millennial European cities. They have not disappeared as such, they were transformed in most cases.
I was in Pompeii a few weeks ago. Watching this video gives a lot more insight into what I actually saw. Sadly looks like I missed a few things in my visit, but my feet were just giving out by the end. It's not easy to walk around in those very rough stone roads.
The day I showed up there the workers at Pompeii decided to strike (Italian thing which happens on a whim). So we went to Herculaneum. That was fantastic, but I still wanna see Pompeii
I was there 3 times and still hungry. U can't see everything in one visit.
@@BiggaNigga69 what happened there bro
@@BiggaNigga69 yeah nigga ass😂
Agreed! You would need to stay a week to see more of it.
Its so crazy to walk where people walked 2100 years ago and think of things like "well it was a Wednesday for someone, someone else was out after getting in a fight with their wife" etc
It would be cool if a virtual reality experience of the entire Pompeii tour could be made. That way people can tour what it used to look like when it was bustling before the volanic eruption. They could experience it with the people moving around, enter their living and business areas but without interaction. I would pay 💰 to experience that.
Definitely! The few shots used here are awesome! Though a little sad to see they were just all white, no color or paint anywhere
This was one of the best videos I’ve ever seen on Pompeii! Everything about it, the discussion the expert and knowledge and narration, and the actual video along with the video reconstruction of what the city once looked like. It all worked out so well in this video. Thanks.🙏❤
I loved it too. What’s extra nice is watching it again for more info soak in ! I’m very lucky in that u have been there & recognise some of the mosaics etc
Yes! I agree 100 percent.
This was very well put together. Super professional, informative, and fascinating. Bravo!!
Agreed!
now we know where his name comes from
Love all the detail. Better than anything you'd find on TV. We will never tire of these videos on ancient Rome! Please make as many as you can, thank you!
The state of preservation is just so amazing, it must be the ultimate experience to actually be there.👍👍
I was there two weeks ago today. An amazing experience. If you go, don't miss Herculaneum! The preservation is even better.
Just before eruption of the Vesuvius in 79AD, people in Pompei could enjoy incredibly wealthy and modern living standard. Probably their standard of living was much better than most of the world in the 19th century. I admire people in Pompei for their miraculous achievement.
Great video ! The reconstructions of ancient Pompeii are beautiful in all the detail you have put into them . I have thoroughly enjoyed this video . Please keep up the good work .
The beauty fills me with so much emotion
This is the information I have always wanted to know! My understanding of Pompeii has increased tenfold. What a work of art!
I find it amazing how they built these structures without any kind of modern equipment.
I was just in Pompeii one month ago (had a similar interest in ancient Roman life) and your video does a great job presenting it! I think the CG renderings are great, they give a sense of what the city would have been originally. Also I also liked the complex houses that were built over time, often joining multiple properties.
Also don’t miss the Archaeological Museum in Naples - that houses a lot of the original pieces from Pompeii. You can spend a whole day there as well!
Did you see the ancient public toilets? I want to take a dump in them. Is this possible?

You are an artist and a genius producing these very high-quality, interesting, enrapturing videos. Thank you so much.
I was in Pompeii last month. I loved it!! I love ancient history.
I was there the last week of October 2023, it was an amazing experience.
This is one of a handful of docos I have seen that are relay worth watching . The quality is out standing .
Yourself and Darius are my favourite historians on TH-cam regarding Rome. It’s great seeing both of your insights on this fantastic ancient site
I'm excited to take this journey with you Manuel. Lead on!
Manuel, I am off to Roma tonight. Arrive Saturday AM. Excellent collaboration with Darius. An award winning video. Bravo. I am pleased. Dan
Glad you liked it. See you soon!
This video was dazzling! Everything about it was great-just the video and the editing are outstanding-but I especially liked the focus on the houses of Pompeii 15:46 with the description of interior features, e.g., the _peristyle_ and the _atrium,_ and how they hold together the invisible “craziness” of the perimeter. The Pompeiians, it seems, had no concept of “curb appeal” whatsoever-not that that’s a bad thing. Every aspect of their homes that mattered-their social spaces, their status markers, their art-took place on the interior. It’s something that had not occurred to me before.
Also, I _really_ appreciated that you respect the original languages enough that you include them in the etymologies (e.g., Περι and Στυλος 18:48) and in the historical texts (the accounts in Latin of Pliny the Younger 26:38). I don’t know Greek or Latin but I’m very roughly “familiar enough” with each one that having the _actual_ language is meaningful.
we do not get that today, how much, for an even slightly significant person, the house would not be a private place but a very public focus, a roundabout of social interaction where the owner would strategically reveal himself to the world through the decorations and presentation he chooses...
with street "curb-appeal" we must remember how dense the city was in terms of population... if any space existed or could be rented from the houses, the sides of any streets would be filled with shops and stalls visually covering any buildings with their bright wares and clothen structures....
walking along the street, there would be commonly no visual of the surrounding houses like we are used to today... the only exception being the doors (which would have presented works of art), or the great gateways of the super-rich...
I wish we watched this before our tour there in July. Very well done and informative. Our tour barely touched any of these spaces.
I felt the same thoughts, we did not realize all we were seeing…
I visited it several years ago and was in awe. Also visited Ostia Antica which was also very interesting. Thank you for your videos.
Your video never fails to impress! I’ve been to Pompeii ten years ago and you film is a good refresher of my memory. It looks much more rejuvenated now compared to ten years ago. Good work, well done and a big applause!
Your videos are always so well thought out and produced. You really enjoy sharing your fascination with ancient societies, and I really appreciate all the work and passion on display here. Just fantastic, all the time, thank you!
Thank you for the time and effort you put into this and sharing it! I'm into history and have always been curious and intersted in Pompeii, and this is truly one of the most informative and engaging videos on Pompeii! Well done, and thanks again for sharing!
Your attention to detail & your research are amazing & really appreciated. Thank you for such informative & beautiful videos!!! 😊❤️👍
EXCELLENT video. Very detailed, well explained and educational. Highly recommended!!! Thank you for all your hard work!!!
Fabulous, informative video. The aerial shots of the city is fascinating. Thank you.
Thank you, Manuel, for this fantastic time travel video! I enjoyed it so much.
Fascinating, thank you for the video!
This is one of the most comprehensive, interesting, and informative videos about Pompei that I’ve ever seen. Thank you. 👍🏽
Thank you for this🙏I was there a month ago and am missing it dearly. Truly a unique place to visit.
Yet again, you have explained a place I have already visited more thoroughly than it was explained to me when I was there. Excellent. Particularly enjoyed the section on domestic architecture.
Thank you - the best documentary about Pompeii that I have ever seen!
Found myself searching flights after watching this informative video. Your videos really make a Pompeii walk-about seem easy. New subscriber. Thank you! ❤
Magnificent! Thank you for this!
Your beautiful video brings the lost city to life, it is amazing how modern it feels - more so than medieval sites I have visited
I was there about 10 years ago and this video revived my fond memories of the place. Thanks Manuel.
This is such excellent quality coverage on all levels! Brava Bravo!
I love your videos especially how you explain everything in detail. I'd love to see you share all the sites and historical building on the Camino of Santiago. thanks for sharing.
The depth of the informations, the quality of the images and the clarity of the exposition are excellent!
Well done.
Thank you.
You’re so terrific! Love your style and thank you for sharing this amazing and detailed information! 😻❤️🐈🙏🐈⬛🐾💕
Excellent video, Manuel. You never disappoint. 😊
Your videos on historical places are the best. I learned so much. Thank you
Absolutely amazing! Professional, accurate, beautiful…
Thank you so much for your great work! Amazing video, well done!!😃
I can only imagine just how incredibly beautiful this city was at the time and what a magnificent place it must have been to behold by all of the merchants and traveler's who came there.
It must have truly been a grand and beautiful city to look upon and to be a citizen of.
Very impressive work you are doing here, Manuel. Thank you
Excellent work, Manuel. This was very informative.
Your channel is amazing. Thank you!

Thank you Manuel for this wonderful production! I didn't know you were this fluent in English, and I'm thankful because I can now share your work with my American family :D Andale, vamos a mas!
Beautifully done !💐Thank You
A very good introduction and initial overview. Thank you
What a great video!! So professional and not the typical information that’s all well known. Love it!
A brilliant video, Manuel, thank you so much for the time and effort you and your colleagues put into its production. Your commentary was both excellent and very informative. I will certainly be viewing it again as there is so much to learn
Maravilloso canal, Manuel, Se agradece el tiempo, esfuerzo y conocimiento que vuelcas en cada uno de tus videos.....
Great video with a lot of details, very well explained. Thank you for this!!
Great job with this video. I'm obsessed with this city and have seen many documentaries and movies. Loved your take on it and your production level is awesome.
This was incredibly interesting! Thanks!
Fantastic video! Thank you Manuel! It was a good watch before visit to Pompei
Thanks for the interesting video.
I really enjoyed listening to the information on the domus and the beautiful artwork contained inside!
Bravo. Awesome video. Easily the best, most interesting and most informative documentary on Pompeii ever. A thorough historical overview including archaeology, architecture, art history, geology … fascinating.
Thank you.
Just found and subscribed to your channel! Been subscribed to Darius's channel for a couple of years. Great work by both of you, thanks!
Wow one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. Thank you!!
Great video! Beautifully explained and beautifully spoken.😎
You do a great job on your videos. Keep up the good work!
Wow, this was well-done, and most fascinating!
What an amazing city. Very informative and learned a lot.
Awesome video! Thank you very much for making it, and sharing it.
This is the best way of visiting Pompeii until I actually visit it in person, and maybe even after I do!
I see how it is easy to lose focus and just miss out on so many things!
phenomenal explanation
He visto unos cuantos videos sobre este tema de Pompeya y el tuyo es excelente! Muchas gracias!
I went to Pompeii in 2021. I loved to walk around it as i love history, but i also felt a strong sadness. Thank you for making this. It brought back great memories.
I was in Pompeii last week. It absolutely fascinated me. I would love to go back and spend more time on a cooler day. Hopefully that is possible someday. Thank you for the great video .
From the perspective of a past visitor to Pompeii I can say this is an Excellent video!
From a broad perspective of the city layout noting & describing the significant structures, especially those surrounding the Forum, followed by the same level of detail in describing sample homes (domus) covering the art & architecture. I would highly recommend this video to anyone studying a history of the Roman world & to use as a guide while visiting Pompeii.
Excellent video like always.
Wonderful! So informative and interesting.
It was a childhood dream to one day visit Pompeii and in 2016 I did just that, it did not disappoint. Remarkable place of which one visit is clearly not enough, so I plan to return soon. Your video was fascinating and added to my knowledge of Pompeii and Roman history, I look forward to watching more soon. Thanks
I’ve been 3 times and I feel there’s still more to see.
Need to go to Herculaneum next
Spent a couple of days in Pompei on my way down to Malta. Found the experience to be unsettling as well as fascinating. A lot of the tourist were fascinating as well, walking in groups, at pace,to just get around the city, suspected they didnt see much.
Love your videos, and this one not any less than the other ones
This reminds me of when I went and toured Ephesus. Definitely want to see Pompeii at some point. But the ability to see these ancient city/ies is amazing!
Excellent video! 🥇 Thank you. 👏👏👏
Very well done. Thank you.
Fantastic documentrary. Thank you so very much.
Fantastic video. Very compelling.
Thank you for this video!
What an incredible video on Pompeii! I'm truly impressed by the meticulous research that Manuel Bravo has put into this. It's amazing how much more we can learn about the history of Pompeii, and this video has been an enlightening experience.
The detailed exploration of Pompeian homes and the insights into the economy of the time were particularly fascinating. It's like taking a step back in time and getting a glimpse of what life was really like in that ancient city.
The visuals, especially the pictures, added a whole new dimension to the storytelling. They brought the historical facts to life, making it even more engaging.
After watching this, I'm genuinely excited about the prospect of visiting Pompeii one day. The way you've presented it has made me want to experience the place for myself and explore its rich history.
Manuel Bravo, keep up the fantastic work and research! Your passion for this topic shines through, and it's been a pleasure to learn from your video. Looking forward to more insightful content like this in the future.
As always, amazing video!
Marvelous! Thank you.
Regio !!! Felicidades Manuel !!!
Muchas gracias Manuel por este excelente video documental de Pompeya, tan bien explicado y gracias a ti pude entender muchos más sobre la ciudad.
Te comento que he visto muchísimos videos sobre Pompeya y recién me entero que tenía dos teatros, fue una gran sorpresa y pienso que definitivamente tengo que ir. Saludos desde Chile
Very thorough and interesting documentary. Thank you for posting
I am 73 years old, and I am absolutely passionate about the city of Pompeii, Manuel. Thank you so much for your channel. You and Mr. Arya have a new subscriber. I only wish I was young enough to join you with your research.
Very informative! Thank you!
Super insightful ❤
I’ve been to Pompeii. But thanks to this video, it is much more interesting and educational than the tour guide at Pompeii. Always enjoy your videos!!
Gracias y enhorabuena por tan grandísimo trabajo. Genial.
