Roman Baths
The Roman Baths complex is a site of historical interest in the English city of Bath. There are four main features in this building: the Sacred Spring, the Roman Temple, the Roman Bath House and the Museum. The first shrine at the site of the hot springs was built by Celts and was dedicated to the goddess Sulis, whom the Romans identified with Minerva.
The water which bubbles up from the ground at Bath fell as rain on the nearby Mendip Hills. It percolates down through limestone aquifers to a depth of between 2,700 metres (8,900 ft) and 4,300 metres (14,100 ft) where geothermal energy raises the water temperature to between 64 °C (147.2 °F) and 96 °C (204.8 °F). Under pressure, the heated water rises to the surface along fissures and faults in the limestone.
Bath is a city in the ceremonial county of Somerset in South West England. The City of Bath was inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 1987.
