Bath, England




For thousands years Bath has been a popular tourists destination as it is famous for its beautiful architecture and fascinating history. I was lucky enough to spend a few hours exploring this iconic city however there was still so much more I wanted to see. I did manage to visited the magnificent Roman Baths as well as relax in the Thermae Bath Spa. 



The Roman Baths date back to the 70AD and were founded upon natural hot springs. They boost four main features: the Sacred Spring, the Roman Temple, the Roman Bath House and the Museum holding finds from the Roman Baths. The Roman baths lie in the heart of the city and are one of the best preserved Roman remains in the world. Tickets are cheap and an audio guide is provided to give fascinating commentary as you slowly make you way around the site. The audio guides are available in 8 different languages, with special guides for children to make it more interesting and less "boring". 

The Thermae Bath Spa were the prefect way to relax after five busy days of sightseeing in London. I spent two hours floating around in the natural thermal waters that have brought health and vitality to the city for centuries. The spa session includes the use of the open-air roof top pool, the in-door Minerva bath and the aroma steam rooms. The roof top pool displayed an AMAZING view of the city's scenery in all directions. Towels, robes and slippers can be hired upon entry and lockers are provide to store your belongings. I would defiantly recommend The Thermae Bath Spa for all ages.
