Beautiful Architecture and Paving

Thousand of people visit bath, every year, to marvel at its glorious and impressive stance of historical buildings, some of which are hundreds of years old.

Bath is an absolute picture for the eyes, from the infamous Roman Baths, leading to the awe-inspiring Royal Crescent, there is plenty of inspiring architecture to enjoy. So go ahead and love it, explore it and be completly awe struck by it.


The architecture has such consistency throughout and shows both determination and accuracy of the time period and architects of the Georgian century.
Most of the buildings that you see there are constructed or adorned with Bath stone, that beautifully coloured, almost marbled stone that appears on the buildings.

 
 
These factors can be seen predominately on your approach into Bath, where high on the hill top you can see the whole landscape of bath, with its clean and crisp serenity.

Did you ever wonder why all the houses and buildings are the same colour? Why there is no coloured houses or odd buildings that have been redesigned or given a different character?
Well, now you know, it is abundantly clear that you are not allowed to change any of these factors of the buildings and these can even be seen on the deeds when buying a house there! A smart factoid for you!

Even the paving under your feet is full of beautifully toned stones... where can Bath go wrong!

 
This highly refined architecture does make you think though. Youn have to think whether we are ultimately deteriorating our ideas about how architecture should be, especially when you compare these spectacularly carved buildings to that of your house or your neighbours. Really gives you something to think about, don't you think?

But I'll leave that for you to decide...
