Vesuvio and surroundings | Panoramic view

WI_e2120_016.jpg

View from Monte Faito towards northeast. Mount Vesuvius (1281 m) can be seen in the left background. The area around Mount Vesuvius is intensely urbanized and cultivated, so that hundreds of thousands of people would be at risk in case of another major eruption of the stratovolcano.
