Impressive!

Very impressive building, takes your breath away the first time you see it. It is of course free to view, so make sure you check it out if you come to Bath. Walk around, along, near and right up to it to really appreciate the details in the design and construction.
Head just a little East to view the equally impressive Circle.
It overlooks a nice park, perfect to hang out or play a relaxed game of footie in the summer. However it does get VERY busy in the warmer months.
Careful of the tramps near the Bandstand in the Royal Park.
