Bath, England, by Nigel’s Europe
The advice initialy given is that Bath, one of the most picturesque towns in the UK with unique Roman baths fame and just 90 minutes by train from London, requires longer than just one day to take in its many offerings.
Getting there does not have to be by rail, with many other route and transport choices outlined. Once you’ve arived, you simply have to visit the Roman baths, conveniently located in the centre of town – budget tickets are discussed. The many museums (choose from Fashion, Postal, Museum of Bath at Work, East Asian Art, Jane Austen, Astronomy and others) are not free (unlike London’s museums, e.g. the Victoria and Albert) but do represent excellent local interest and value.
Bath’s many gardens and parks – choose from the Royal Victoria Park , the Parade Gardens along the river front, the free Sydney Gardens, the Queen’s Garden complete with obelisk and the Georgian Garden – make the place even prettier and provide a very pleasant and relaxing experience.
Other attractions like buildings/rooms worthwhile visiting, interesting shops and places to eat are also described in unique and insightful perspective.
Bath must be one of the loveliest places to visit in England and it certainly has an excellent reputation as both a classy and laid back University town. Sounds like a great stop on a Europe trip.
