The House of the Faun is one of Pompeii’s largest, best-preserved Roman houses—photograph ornate mosaics (notably the Alexander Mosaic), the peristyle garden with its central impluvium, colonnades and sculptural fragments. Best visited early morning or late afternoon for soft side-light on mosaics and shallow pools. Accessible via the Pompeii archaeological park ticket; expect walking on uneven stone, limited wheelchair access. Park at the main Pompeii lots; tripods may be restricted inside.
