Bath-house in the Abramtsevo estate.
The roots of Abramtsevo go far into the past: for the first time the village of Obramkovo was mentioned in the documents of the 16th century, but as an estate it has been known since the beginning of the 18th century.
It is no coincidence that the bathhouse-teremok (1877–1878) designed by I.P. Ropeta is considered one of the most "bizarre" buildings on the estate: a low wooden building with a mezzanine has very unusual proportions - small windows and a door, a massive porch and a high wide roof decorated with sawn carvings. The Aksakovs used the tower as a bathhouse, while the Mamontovs eventually converted it into a guest house. Now there is an exposition of the Abramtsevo carpentry workshop. But the bathhouse is worth visiting not only for the exhibition of products by E. D. Polenova, but also for the sake of the interior of the bathhouse - this is an excellent example of the "Russian style".

The town of Bath in Somerset has its name from the Roman Baths. From 43 ad, the Romans living in Britannia began to build bathhouses around the hot springs found here.
Most of these buildings are outstandingly well preserved and can be visited today. In the middle of downtown Bath, the old baths are a good bit below the street level, bypassing magnificent 19th-century buildings.

The volcano Antisana is 5700 meters high. It is a Stratovulkan and is located in the area of the eastern Cordilleras in Ecuador. The volcano is active, which is why clear, cold water and hot and mineral water are emerging from its rocks. In a side valley you can find the most beautiful thermal baths. Rarely has a clear mountain view. We were very lucky, because the glaciers of the Antisana appeared close to the sun.

Claverton Manor, near Bath, is an 1820 country house and home to the American Museum in a commanding position overlooking the Limpley Stoke Valley. The gardens are a subtle blend of both the remnants of the old manorial pleasure grounds and parkland landscape.
There is a re-creation of George Washington's Garden at Mount Vernon, and an arboretum with a collection of American trees.

Vista de la ciutat anglèsa de Bath des de Alexandra Park, al sud.
La vista és força espectacular, però deu ni do, la pujadeta...

The city of Bath seen from Alexandra Park. The viewpoint is quite nice, but the path that leads to it is quite steep.

We had an unfortunate experience earlier this week, travelling to Bath and staying in a hotel without taking a single picture. The moment we'd had dinner and retired for the night a team of roadworkers with their specialist vehicles arrived outside our bedroom window and proceeded to dig up the entire road outside the hotel and then re-lay it, finishing some time towards 5am. We didn't get a moment's sleep as the noise was horrendous. Apparently they were doing the rest of the road the following two nights. We promptly negotiated the bill and headed home. So here's an unused shot of the famous Pulteney Bridge in Bath from a previous visit.
The world-famous bridge was completed by 1774 and connected the city with the newly built Georgian town of Bathwick. Designed by Robert Adam in a Palladian style, the bridge is exceptional in having shops built across its full span on both sides. It has been designated as a Grade I listed-building.
Like so much of the Georgian architecture in Bath, the facade is beautifully designed but the rear of the building is a bit of a mess, with individual property owners left to complete their part of the building however they chose. It is colloquially known as "Queen Anne fronts and Mary-Anne backs".
Bathed in sunlight, Prissy enjoying some strong sunshine in this early shot, found in North Carolina.
Amazing clouds spiralling out from a slowly approaching stormy front dominated the blue sky that morning. Cotswold Way. Lansdown, near Bath. Banes, England, U.K.
Thank you for your visits, favours and comments.

An early evening shot caught the light just right in Bath on Saturday. A beautiful city, and I hadn't been for years!
This Mallard duck was having a vigourous bath in a small patch of sunshine on the canal. I took quite a few shots. Some had not enough spray and were not dynamic enough, the rest had rather too much and hid the duck. This was the best of the latter group.
