I LOOVED Bath, and though I went to Salisbury as well and Stonehenge and many other little towns in England outside London…Bath ended up being my favorite because of the fusion of English and Roman culture and architecture. I adored the feel of the city and it very much appealed to the history geek in me as well!!

Hey if you’re headed to Florence or Berlin (plus more to come) you might want to check out the audio tours at noambit.com. Mp3 tours are a great way to save money and avoid the limitations a guided tour can bring.

I always enjoy stopping by here. Either I learn about a place I haven’t yet visited or I get to take a trip through my own memories.

I once spent a day in Bath visiting a friend who lives there. I wish I’d been able to stay longer and explore more.

I didn’t realize Bill Bryson narrated the audio tour. Perhaps they’ve changed it since we were there, or else we were trying to do the audio tour so quickly that we didn’t notice who was narrating.

Wonderful description and great photos.

These are actually the first photos of Bath I see. I read about it in fictions books and in tourism books, but I actually never got to see what it looked like. It’s nice to read a genuine atmosphere description for a change

Aahh…my favourite British city and a great description of its superb baths. I think the architecture is called Georgian (18th century) but most impressive is that hasn’t really been compromised to create such a “pretty” architecture.
