London, England -- (SBWire) -- 09/22/2011 --Bath proliferates with captivating architecture. Pulteney Bridge is seen by many as one of the world’s most spectacular bridges. The construction of Bath Abbey, the last of the great medieval churches of England, began in 1499. Its West Front is wholly unique as it portrays the dream that encouraged the Abbey's founder, Bishop Oliver King, to pull down the ruined Norman cathedral and raise the present building on its foundations. The impressive Royal Crescent, built between 1767 and 1775, is one of the most distinguished landmarks in the world. These are simply some of Bath’s architectural masterpieces.
There are a wide range of museums and galleries in Bath, from the Jane Austen Centre (Austen is the most celebrated resident of Bath) to the Victoria Art Gallery, which houses work from illustrious artists dating from the 15th century to the current age, to the Fashion museum. The American museum in Britain and the Museum of East Asian Art are also well worth exploring on your Roman Bath Tours.
