Bacoli, Coastal town in Metropolitan City of Naples, Italy

Located on the Gulf of Pozzuoli, Bacoli spreads across 13.3 square kilometers of volcanic terrain at an elevation of 30 meters above sea level.

Originally named Bauli, this settlement became a favored retreat for Roman nobility, with Emperor Hadrian maintaining a residence where he spent his final days in 138 AD.

Local fishermen continue maritime traditions that shape the community's identity, contributing to the regional gastronomy centered on Mediterranean seafood preparations.

The archaeological park contains multiple preserved Roman structures, including the Piscina Mirabilis water reservoir and the Cento Camerelle underground chambers.

The ancient military training facility at Miliscola fraction represents one of the earliest documented Roman military education centers in the Mediterranean region.
