Users of Google Street View can now walk the streets of the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, it has been announced.
The feature will allow internet users to visit the Roman city without dusting up their shoes with the volcanic ash that buried it nearly 2,000 ago.
Italy's Culture Ministry said it had worked with Google to add to the Street View application images of the avenues, villas, temples and theaters of the ancient town.
