There is a great tour of the town of Bath, and it is absolutely free. The tradition dates back to the early 1900s when the mayor of Bath began giving tours of his town to people. This eventually became a tradition, and now volunteers give tours every day, rain or shine, and they are still absolutely FREE.
We met up with our tour guide in front the Roman Baths, which shares the same square as the Bath Abbey church, which is stunning.
The front of the church is covered with angels climbing up and down ladders helping people to get to heaven.
The interior is surprisingly light are airy. Simply beautiful.
The tour took us all over the city. The weather started off nice, but deteriorated into a miserable rainstorm. Welcome to England. . .We walked up and down many streets seeing some of the beautiful architectural buildings in the town and they really are beautiful.
We saw where there are bathing facilities today that one can visit to experience the local hot springs.
