Pulteney Bridge is an absolute gem in the heart of Bath. The architecture is stunning, and it’s one of the few bridges in the world with shops running along both sides – truly a sight to behold. Walking across the bridge offers lovely views of the River Avon, and the surrounding streets are full of charm, cafés, and boutique shops. It’s a perfect spot for photography and soaking up the historic atmosphere of the city. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Bath!
One of the most beautiful spots in Bath. Pulteney Bridge is stunning, with its historic architecture and views over the River Avon. The flowing water, old stone buildings, and nearby cafes create a very calm and picturesque atmosphere. Perfect for photos, a relaxed walk, or just standing and taking in the charm of the city. A must-see landmark when visiting Bath.
Pulteney Bridge is Bath's main landmark. Bath is a spa town - baths were established here back in the Roman era, as the city sits in the crater of a dormant volcano well, perhaps not entirely dormant, it seems.nnYet when it comes to Bath's most photographed sights, the bridge confidently rivals the baths.nnThe bridge was built in the 18th century and was originally conceived as a shopping bridge - shops line both sides of it.nThe design took inspiration from Florence's Ponte Vecchio, where you can both cross the river and buy souvenirs.nnPulteney Bridge has been built, rebuilt, and expanded with additional shops; it later suffered damage from a flood… and now stands in the city centre, drawing everyone's attention.nnIt is worth taking a look at the water rapids - they’re another one of Bath's «calling cards».nnIf you visit the city, you won't miss the bridge. Next to it is the upscale‑looking Empire Hotel currently under renovation and half‑covered with scaffolding, and a little further away stands Bath Cathedral - or rather, not just a cathedral but an abbey, a large beautiful Gothic building.
A unique bridge into Bath with shops and cafes right on it! The walk across the bridge is very pleasant, especially the beautiful views of the River Avon and the old buildings of the city. A great place for photos, a leisurely stroll and a quick stop at a cafe. The history and atmosphere is impressive!
Beautiful historic bridge with lovely views of the river and weir. Great spot for photos and a peaceful walk and a must-see in Bath! Beautiful city full of history and charm. Stunning architecture, relaxing Roman Baths, and lovely riverside walks. Bath is always a joy to explore!
