The Roman Baths sit at the heart of Bath, built around the only natural hot springs in Britain. Visitors walk on original Roman pavements and see the Great Bath, still filled with steaming geothermal water. The museum displays artifacts like the gilt bronze head of the goddess Sulis Minerva and Roman curse tablets. Audio guides bring the site to life with stories of bathers and priests. It's a vivid glimpse into daily life in Roman Britain, blending archaeology with interactive exhibits.
