Roman Baths of Bath

Spent a leisurely sunshine-filled weekend in Bath, which is famous for the Roman Baths dating back to 60-70 AD.

These are the only natural hot water springs in the UK.

Statues of Roman Emperors and Governors, including Julius Ceasar, overlooking the bath. These were erected in the 19th century. In the background are the Gothic spires of Bath Abbey.

In the summmer, the Roman Baths are open till 10pm. It's much better to visit in the evening after the crowds have thinned and the Roman Baths are lit by fire torches.



More views of Bath Abbey.
