Pompeii is still an archeological dig and is open for visitors. I was there in 05 and my big surprise was that I had to walk up hill in a tunnel to the ruins. The eruption dumped 65 feet of ash and rocks and that means the ground level today is below the Pompeii level. Not all of Pompeii is uncovered, but the city was large and the things you see today show you what life was like in 79 AD. Murals on walls of the villas are still as vibrant and colorful as they were when the eruption happened. If you live in California the Getty villa in Santa Monica is an exact copy of a Pompeii villa that is a museum of ancient art. It is free to visit and Getty copied it down to the plants that were found in Pompeii. It is worth a visit if you can get there.
