Pompeii is the closest city to Mt Vesuvius
Pompeii was not a city where wealthy people went. It was an average, working, Roman town. Not to say that there were not wealthy people living in Pompeii, there were, just as in any other city, but they were generally the people who made their wealth in Pompeii and so belonged to the city's upper class. The wealthy went to the city of Herculaneum or to Stabiae or Oplontis, which were resort towns.
Mount Vesuvius is the only volcano on the European mainland to have erupted within the last hundred years, although it is not currently erupting.
It was buried under ash, but you can go there now. everybody who didn't escape died.
The Pompeii explosion, mount Vesuvius, killed the whole town of Pompeii and killed people in other towns to. Also this volcano erupted in 79 AD and it cremated the whole town and the town people with ash. when you go to the natural history museum you will find, in the volcano section, actual real people from Pompeii covered in ash.
They evacuated Pompeii. They residents knew Vesuvius would have a large eruption soon, as it was spouting ash and lava.

The volcano erupting. Actually it is very,well preserved. Paintings and murals on the walls can still be seen along with carvings. Even graffiti can be seen and many objects are in the Pompeii museum. When visitors go there it is like stepping back in time. I have been there.

The adults might go trading, and then go to the public bath while the children play in courtyards and streets. They had no clue that Vesuvius was a volcano, and they mostly had nice lives, but of the 20,000 that lived there, about 8,000 were slaves.
