Information

Bath is one of the top ten English cities visited by people from other countries, with over 6 million visitors annually.

Bath is the biggest city in the county of Somerset, England, and it got its name and its reputation from the baths that the Romans in the city constructed.

Bath is located in the Avon Valley, 156 kilometres from London and 18 km from Bristol.

In 1987, Bath was added to the list of World Heritage sites.

The Roman Baths and the magnificent Temple were built around a natural hot spring at 46°C and were at the centre of Roman life.

A visit to the Roman Baths would not be complete without a stop in the Pump Room, which dates back to the 18th century and is located directly above the Temple.
