Bath is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site, for which the Roman baths are largely responsible. It is the oldest Roman remains and only natural mineral springs spa in the UK, making it wildly popular with visitors. Georgian architecture from the 18th century is best on display at the Royal Crescent, a crescent-shaped row of thirty regal houses. Visitors can tour the inside of No. 1 Royal Crescent. The top of Bath Abbey offers gorgeous views of the city, but those unable to make the 212 steps can take the Bath Skyline Walk, which provides marvelous views too. Visitors will also want to make the 1-hour drive from Bath to Stonehenge (video).
