Baia, the Atlantis of Rome

Vesuvius submerged Pompeii with fire and Baia with water. Just a few km from Naples, Baia, the city of luxury and hedonistic pleasure of the Roman Empire, is the largest submerged archaeological site on the planet. It is located inside the caldera of the Phlegrean Fields, a supervolcano currently on orange alert. A team of restorers,  unique in the world, has the arduous task of restoring and preserving this wonder.
