Bath

One of the main sights are the Roman Baths. The Romans built a tremendous spa complex at this site about 2000 years ago to make use of the three naturally occuring hot springs. The hot springs are a result of a fault below which allows ground water to escape upwards and form these springs. You can actually see the water bubbling up at the springs which feed the spa. I was most impressed with these ancient Baths which despite being built about 2000 years ago have features which continue to work.
