An expert guide to Bath
"Its biggest draw, the Roman Baths complex, cleverly makes the most of the city’s ancient foundations, while the words of former resident Jane Austen bring more recent history to life. Today, Bath remains a centre for wellness, with a modern, multi-level thermal spa that taps into its underground vein of rich mineral waters. Such beautiful surroundings attract creative types and there is a wealth of independent shops, markets and eateries. The surrounding countryside bears quality produce in abundance, so Bath is brimming with semi-rural farm shops, artisanal coffee houses, vegan and vegetarian bistros, contemporary brasseries and gourmet restaurants."

15 Best Things to Do in Bath (Somerset, England
"The Roman bathing complex has been redeveloped many times over the centuries, and you can visit the museum there now to rifle through the many layers of history. Above ground the current buildings mostly date to the 19th century and there are statues of Emperors and the Governors of Roman Britain on the terrace. The first-rate museum here takes you below street level to the Roman Sacred Spring, Temple of Minerva and Roman Bathhouse, and shows off the many wonderful finds made around the spring."
