Heritage Of The Roman Empire In

Bath

Bath’s sand-colored buildings exude charm and tranquility like they’re from a fairytale. Known for its stunning Georgian architecture, Roman baths, and rich cultural heritage, the city is a must-visit destination. With its quaint streets, and famous sights, it offers a delightful insight in history.

Basic Information

Bath is located in the county of Somerset in South West England. The city has a population of around a hundred thousand people, and in 1987 it became part of the UNESCO list thanks to its historical heritage. It was founded by the Romans in the 1st century AD after discovering natural hot springs and has been flourishing as a spa city since then.

Pulteney Bridge

The Pulteney Bridge was inspired by Ponte Vecchio in Florence, Italy and is lined with shops on both sides. Walking on the bridge, you don’t even realise you’re crossing a river. Together with a water weir underneath, it’s the most photographed site in Bath.

This curved row of Georgian townhouses and green lawns stands out in British architecture. Many notable people in history were proud to call this address their home. Today, there is a museum, a luxurious hotel, and private housing.

    Tak toto město určitě jednou navštívím… Mám dotaz – v jakém ročním období byly snímky pořízeny?
