🇬🇧 Bath in One Day: A Walk Through Timeless Elegance

In 1987, the entire city of Bath was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, famed for its ancient thermal springs—even its train station is called Bath Spa. Just 1.5 hours from London Paddington, this compact city exudes grace and charm. My 18,782-step route: St John the Evangelist Church → Cross Bath → Roman Baths Pump Room → Bath Abbey → Parade Gardens → Pulteney Bridge → Queen Square → The Circus → Royal Crescent → Bath Abbey Tower Tour. 🏛️ Highlights 1️⃣ Bath Abbey Gothic masterpiece with vaulted ceilings and storied stained glass, reminiscent of Westminster Abbey. Tower Tour: A must-do! Learned about bell mechanics from guide Jasper—discovered large church bells have names (London’s "Big Ben," Bath’s "Troublesome Tenor" due to past mishaps). Got to ring it manually—the echo was magical! 🔔 Bonus: Sunset views from the tower 🌇. 2️⃣ Roman Baths Pump Room Bath’s iconic attraction, though plagued by aging circuits (power kept tripping during my visit). Settled for admiring the emerald-green pool from the abbey tower. 💚 3️⃣ Pulteney Bridge One of only 4 shop-lined bridges globally. The three-tiered weir beneath is mesmerizing! 4️⃣ The Circus & Royal Crescent Architectural siblings: The Circus (sun-shaped) and Royal Crescent (moon-shaped). Royal Victoria Park’s sloping lawns are perfect for picnics and sunbathing. ☀️ 🍽️ Dining Square Grill House (near the abbey): 3-course meal + Bath’s golden sunlight = pure bliss. Even this "sunlight-phobe" couldn’t resist! #WorldTravel #UK #Bath #TravelGram #BritishHistory
