Photos of The Roman Baths

The Roman Bath is located in the center of Bath, opposite Bath Abbey. It is the attraction of Bath and the origin of the English Bath name of Bath. This well-preserved Roman bath is a place where tourists in Bath are endless and eager to see. When you are in it, you are witnessing the portrayal of life in Roman times. Among them, the holy spring, the Roman temple, the Roman bath and the Roman bath cultural relics are famous. #ArchitecturalFeatures# The Victorian reception hall at the entrance is gorgeous, with four seasons carved into the vaulted ceiling. In addition to buying tickets here, don't forget to get a free voice guide (including Chinese service). However, there is no large luggage storage service here, so if necessary, you can store your large luggage elsewhere before browsing. The bathing place is divided into upper and lower floors. The lower bath is connected to the underground hot spring. The pool is green and blue, and warm spring water is still gushing out. It is hard to imagine that it has maintained such a state for more than 10,000 years. The upper and lower floors of the bath are supported by 12 pillars, each of which has statues of Roman gods in different shapes, because the Romans believed that the hot springs that existed like divine water came from the protection of the gods. Entering from the reception hall leads to a terrace overlooking the large baths, surrounded by Victorian statues dating from the reign of Roman monarchs dating back to 1894. Don't stop here for a while, overlooking the overall appearance of the large bath. #Holy Spring# The holy spring is located at the core of the Roman Baths. The temperature of the natural spring water is kept at 46 degrees Celsius all year round, which has a history of thousands of years. The spring water flows from the ground uninterrupted day and night, and the overflowing part flows into the original Roman sewer. The museum of the baths has a glass floor. You can clearly see the water pipes of the baths through the glass floor under your feet. There are many treasures in the collection, among which carved gems and tin masks are worth seeing. #大 Bath# The Roman Big Bath is the top priority for most people to visit here. The size of the bath is huge, made of 45 lead plates, and the water depth is 1.6 meters, which is very suitable for bathing. There are steps all around to make it easier for guests to enter and exit at that time. The spring water in the pool is abundant, and the water surface is steaming. A huge stone slab is placed horizontally where the hot spring water flows out, which is where people who came to bathe dived for entertainment at that time. From 10:00 to 17:00 every day and in the evenings of July and August every year, the staff will dress in ancient Roman costumes, giving visitors a sense of traveling back to the distant ancient Roman era. There are east bathrooms and west bathrooms on both sides of the large bath, as well as a bathroom suite and a high-temperature bathroom. If you want to learn more about the relevant history, you can go to the Roman Baths Museum, which not only houses two composite models of the temple and the baths, but also exhibits comedy films related to ancient Rome.
