Bath is a town set in the rolling countryside of southwest England, known for its natural hot springs and 18th-century Georgian architecture. Honey-coloured Bath stone has been used extensively in the town’s architecture, including at Bath Abbey, noted for its fan-vaulting, tower and large stained-glass windows. The museum at the site of the original Roman-era Baths includes The Great Bath, statues and a temple.
Bath is in the valley of the River Avon, 97 miles (156 km) west of London and 11 miles (18 km) south-east of Bristol. The city became a World Heritage Site in 1987. Bath became part of the county of Avon in 1974, and, following Avon's abolition in 1996, has been the principal centre of Bath and North East Somerset.
The city of Bath became a spa with the Latin name Aquæ Sulis (the waters of Sulis) c. AD 60 when the Romans built baths and a temple in the valley of the River Avon, although hot springs were known even before then. Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th century and became a religious centre; the building was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. In the 17th century, claims were made for the curative properties of water from the springs, and Bath became popular as a spa town in the Georgian era. Georgian architecture, crafted from Bath stone, includes the Royal Crescent, Circus, Pump Room, and Assembly Rooms where Beau Nash presided over the city's social life from 1705 until his death in 1761. Many of the streets and squares were laid out by John Wood, the Elder, and in the 18th century the city became fashionable and the population grew. Jane Austen lived in Bath in the early 19th century. Further building was undertaken in the 19th century and following the Bath Blitz in World War II.
The city has software, publishing and service-oriented industries. Theatres, museums, and other cultural and sporting venues have helped make it a major centre for tourism with more than one million staying visitors and 3.8 million day visitors to the city each year. There are several museums including the Museum of Bath Architecture, Victoria Art Gallery, Museum of East Asian Art, and the Holburne Museum. The city has two universities: the University of Bath and Bath Spa University, with Bath College providing further education. Sporting clubs include Bath Rugby and Bath City F.C. while TeamBath is the umbrella name for all of the University of Bath sports teams.

Day Trip To Bath - Roman Baths, Georgian City Walk
Info. Maps, Pictures -
Free self-guided walks that you can preview in 1 Minute. Every London walk starts and ends at a tube station.
Bath is one of Britain’s most beautiful cities and it’s just 1hour 30mins from London’s Paddington Station.
Walk Start & End Bath Spa Station
3.7 Miles - 6km
Fast walk 1hour 20 minutes but allow a day to explore most of the sights.
The City has world heritage status, with around 5000 buildings of historic interest. It is famous for its Roman Baths, stunning Georgian architecture and as the home of novelist Jane Austen.
A) Bath Spa Station.
Buy your tickets in advance for lower prices
B) Parade Gardens
A beautiful park in the heart of the city. The City's gardeners regularly win the national ‘Britain In Bloom’ competition.
C) Bath Abbey
Founded in the 7th Century, with wonderful stained glass windows and ceiling fan vaulting. The 216 steps to the top are worth the climb for the fantastic views. Don't miss the carvings of the angels climbing Jacob's ladder on the front of the building.
D) Roman Baths
Bath's most popular attraction. Book in advance to avoid long queues. The cost of admission includes a good audio guide. I particularly enjoy the children's commentary: it's witty and clever! The costumed actors tell their stories, all based on historical evidence.
E) Thermae Bath Spa. People love the rooftop pool.
F) Theatre Royal. Built in 1805, this is one of Britain's oldest and most beautiful theatres.
G) Queen Square. Built between 1728 and 1736 and named in honour of Queen Caroline, the wife of George II. The seven Palladian-style houses on the north side are made to look like a Palace. Beau Nash built the wonderful obelisk at the heart of the square in 1735.
H) The Circus. The Latin translation of 'circus' is oval or circle. The architect John Wood the Elder was fascinated by Stonehenge and The Circus has the same 218-foot diameter as the ancient druid site. Construction work was completed in 1768.
I) Royal Crescent. John Wood the Younger built these beautiful buildings between 1767 and 1774. No1 Royal Crescent is a museum, which gives a good insight into the life of a wealthy Bath family.
J) Royal Avenue. A good walk through the park with a nice view of Royal Crescent.
I've split the walk into two sections: the following are key things to look out for in the second section.
A) George Street
From the park, cross into George Street and turn left at the path. Then turn right and then left until you get to Alfred Street.
B) Alfred House -14 Alfred Street
Don't miss the ice cream cone-shaped iron object. It was used to extinguish flaming torches.
C) Bath Assembly Rooms - (Free) & Fashion Museum
Designed in 1769 The Assembly Rooms were the place for Bath's elite to enjoy themselves - music, dancing and a place to meet and be seen. The Fashion Museum is highly recommended. The 'dressing up’ interactive activities appeal to both children and adults.
D) Victoria Art Gallery (Free - for permanent exhibition)
Pictures from the 15th to 21st Century. All the artists are local and include Thomas Gainsborough, Walter Sickert, John Nash and Edward Burne-Jones.
E) Pulteney Bridge
A truly iconic bridge, designed by Robert Adam and completed in 1774. Unusually, it has shops down its entire length. There are only four other bridges like this in the world. You can also take pleasure boat trips from the bridge.
F) The Holburne Museum. (Free - for permanent exhibition)
A beautiful museum with works by Gainsborough and Stubbs. The collection also includes silver, ivory and porcelain. The cafe is popular and recommended.
Sydney Gardens is situated behind the Holburne Museum. It’s Bath’s oldest park and was laid out in 1795. It became popular with the Royal Family and the famous novelist Jane Austen lived nearby at 4 Sydney Place. I find the trees spectacular and it's a good spot to wander around and to enjoy a picnic. Walk through the park to the Kennet and Avon Canal
G) Kennet and Avon Canal
Opened in 1810. This is the final section of the walk, and it takes you past some impressive feats of engineering: Pulteney, Abbey View and Wash House Locks enable barges to join the Avon River. The Canal enjoyed an economic boom (large fortunes were made) until the opening of Great Western Railway in 1841.
At Bathwick Hill you have to cross over the bridge and rejoin the towpath on the other side. Follow the signs for the City and Bath Spa station

Handbagged in Bath a theatre trip _ _
I went to the Theatre in Bath and instead of a modern place looking like a cinema I find this piece of history. Fantastic. I had gone to the Theatre Royal in Bath and discovered not only an incredible theatre but also a terrific play. It covered the relationship between a Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher and a monarch, Queen Elizabeth II. It is the habit of the monarch to meet Her Prime Minister every Tuesday afternoon to discuss what is happening in Her Kingdom. While the present Prime Minister is David Cameron of the Conservative Party, the Monarch is still Queen Elizabeth II.
Margaret Thatcher was in the habit of carrying a Handbag. Being Handbagged is the suggestion of being Hit or Persuaded by being hit with a handbag. Since Margaret That was the first female Prime Minister then she would carry a handbag whereas any male prime minister would not.
The play Hadbagged was written by Moira Buffini. The first performance was October 2013. Characters in the play include Ronald Raegan, one time Archbishop of Canterbury Robert Runcie, Peter Carrington, Prince Philip, and Margaret Thatcher's husband.
The Theatre Royal in Bath, England, was built in 1805. It is a Grade II* listed building and one of the more important theatres in the United Kingdom outside London, with capacity for an audience of around 900.

Bath è una città situata nella contea del Somerset, nell'Inghilterra del Sud-Ovest, e sorge lungo le rive del fiume Avon. Grazie alla sua bellezza e ricchezza culturale Bath è da sempre una delle destinazioni preferite del Regno Unito.
Fondata dai Romani come centro termale, perché qui sgorgano le uniche sorgenti calde naturali della Gran Bretagna. Sempre grazie alle sue terme Bath divenne anche un importante ritrovo mondano, che nel XVIII secolo andò incontro a un forte sviluppo edilizio divenendo uno straordinario esempio di architettura Georgiana.
Per la sua importanza storica, il suo retaggio culturale e il suo valore architettonico Bath è stata dichiarata dall'UNESCO sito del Patrimonio Mondiale dell'Umanità.Per scoprire la storia di Bath visita le Terme Romane e il suo museo archeologico; gli iconici edifici e quartieri Georgiani come il Royal Crescent, il Circus, Queen Square e le Assembly Rooms; i musei come il Museum of Bath Architecture, il No 1 Royal Crescent, il Fashion Museum e l'Holburne Museum. Non perderti l'Herschel Museum of Astronomy, esposizione ospitata nella casa del famoso astronomo William Herschel.
Bristol è una grande città situata nell'Inghilterra del Sud-Ovest. Sorge lungo le rive del fiume Avon, il quale sfocia poco lontano dalla città nel Canale di Bristol, la grande insenatura che si trova tra Inghilterra e Galles. Città dalle antiche tradizioni marittime, Bristol è oggi uno dei centri più importanti e interessanti della Gran Bretagna.
L'attrazione più iconica di Bristol è senza dubbio il Clifton Suspension Bridge, il meraviglioso ponte sospeso progettato da Isambard Kingdom Brunel che attraversa il fiume Avon e la spettacolare gola chiamata Avon Gorge. Percorri e ammira questa straordinaria opera d'ingegneria civile del XIX secolo, poi scopri tutto sulla sua storia nel Centro Visitatori di Leigh Woods.
Bristol è ricca di eventi straordinari durante tutto l’anno, come la Bristol International Balloon Fiesta (festival dedicato alle mongolfiere), l'Upfest (il più grande festival europeo dedicato agli artisti di strada), il Bristol Harbour Festival (importante festival marittimo), il Love Saves The Day (grande festival musicale) e tantissimi altri.
Buona Visone!

Francis hotel in Bath
I couldn't resist... a walk down the corridor in the hotel.
The hotel occupies seven of the original 18th Century townhouses that make up the south side of the centrally located and sought-after address of Queen Square in Bath.
Built between 1728 and 1736, Queen Square was designed by John Wood the Elder (1704-54). The hotel’s seven townhouses are now seamlessly interconnected to house 98 luxurious bedrooms.
The Circus, Bath, England
Alongside the iconic Royal Crescent, Bath also features another impressively rounded landmark: The Circus.
Originally known as The King’s Circus, this remarkable sight consists of three curved segments of Grade I listed townhouses, arranged in a circular shape. The striking attraction was designed by John Wood the Elder, an architect also responsible for the nearby Queen Square. Unfortunately John Wood the Elder didn’t live to see his plans turned into reality, due to his death less than three months before construction of The Circus began in 1754. His son, John Wood the Younger, completed the build in 1768.
