While all the city’s attractions and museums were closed as we went to print, Visit Bath highlights the virtual tours which can be explored from the comfort of your home
A virtual tour of Bath

BATH THERMAE SPA

If you’ve not been to the Thermae Spa, this virtual tour will show you around all the floors of the spa, starting with the stunning roof-top pool, where you can bathe in the mineral-rich thermal waters whilst enjoying 360-degree views of Bath. The evening is a perfect time to watch the sunset. Follow the rest of the virtual tour to view the multi-sensory Wellness Suite with two steam rooms, an infra-red sauna, and an ice chamber. Travel around the main Minerva Bath – named after the Roman Goddess of Health and Wisdom - to imagine floating around the lazy river, whirlpool, and massage jet.

THE ROMAN BATHS

Probably one of the best examples of Roman remains can be explored virtually. Navigate your way through the three floors of the museum and use the ‘walkthrough’ pages to learn more about different areas: The Sacred Spring, The Roman Temple, The Roman Bath House and finds from Roman Bath. Have a go at Roman-themed online games - such as Roman numeral bingo - and for children, activity booklets are available to download so they can learn about Roman Life. You can also explore the Pump Room where the high society in the regency period went to ‘take the waters’.
