1,700 years ago, the city of Baiae, where the rich Roman era was concentrated, began to sink into the sea in Naples Bay, Italy.Scientists believe that volcanic activity makes the coastline 400 meters deep, rising water covering the city.

Some architectures are still relatively intact despite sinking under the sea for nearly 2,000 years.Diver today can go down to see the ruins of the city under the sea.In the picture, a diver is meticulously observing the flower floor background with clear patterns.

Divers explore an architecture that could once be a castle wall or a square inside the city.

Many walkways, walls, mosaics and statues still exist over time. "It is considered one of the most important Roman cities for centuries," said Napoli photographer Antonio Busiello.
