On a map, Pompeii's Villa of the Mysteries looks like an afterthought-a small, distant square, as far away as possible from the ancient city's amphitheatre, where the action was. But the suburban villa, which dates to the second century BC, is the red-hot centre for many who make the pilgrimage here. Its room of celebrated frescoes contains some of the best-known and best-preserved examples of Ancient Roman art.
