Today we travelled to the #CityOfBath, which is just over an hour away by train, making it suitable for a day trip. We cycled to our #RailwayStation and left our #bikes there. In #Bath, we only used pubic #buses and walked everywhere; we were lucky that although today had been planned well in advance, the weather was wonderful.

After a quick visit in the morning to the #UniversityOfBath, we spent most of our time wandering around the centre of the #city. The #RoyalCrescent has houses on its perimeter, curved in a #CircularArc, overlooking a park on the lower slopes.

The #RiverAvon flows through the city and here, you can see it and also one of the famous #bridges, called #PulteneyBridge, which has shops over the span.

There's a nice walk along a stretch of the #river and here you can see the bridge from which the last #photograph was taken. I like the reflection of the river on the underside of the #arch.

#BathAbbey is made of the same stone that most of the #city is made and it gives a uniformity and harmony giving #Bath a unique character.

But first.... it's

Bath Time

A visit to the 1st/2nd Century Roman Baths in then Roman-Empire UK, with chapels, fountains, hot springs and of course hot baths.
In homage to the goddess Sulis Minerva, who granted wishes, fielded curses, and resided over this natural and man-made wonder.
