Ba si de ba si bath pool

Bath is famous for its unique hot spring bathroom. There is an old story about the origin of bathing hot springs. A long time ago, when King Lear's father Brock was a prince, he was unfortunately infected with leprosy and was deported to this land. Forced to make a living, the prince had to raise pigs for a living. Pigs like to eat rubber seeds. One day, the greedy pig saw a pond full of rubber seeds and rushed in, so the prince had to go down to the pond and catch the pig ashore. The pond is unusually hot. When the prince came ashore, he was even out of breath, but he suddenly found that leprosy was cured. The prince was very happy. He transformed the pond into a hot spring bath. After he became king, he built a city named after himself-Bradud.

In the 1 th century, the Romans who invaded Britain took a fancy to the beautiful and pleasant hot springs here, named this place Bath (that is, "Bath"), and built many luxurious baths all over the city. The well-preserved ancient Roman hot springs are basically located in the Roman Imperial Bathroom Museum in the city center, which is regarded as the symbol of the city, and Bath has become a world-famous hot spring resort.

The procedure of bathing in Roman baths is to go to the sports game room to relax, then take a sauna or Turkish bath, and finally soak in the cold water pool. Before the 2nd century AD, mixed bathing for men and women was quite common in public bathhouses, but it was later banned by King Hadrian, so some bathhouses separated the bathing time for men and women, and some built extra bathhouses so that men and women could bathe in different bathhouses at the same time.

Someone once asked the king of Rome why he had to take a bath once a day. The king replied helplessly, "because I am too busy to take a bath twice a day!" " "It can be seen that bathing is the favorite daily activity of the Romans, just as common as social activities. Bathroom is also an important place for Roman social activities. From the quality of spices and massage oil used in a bath and the number of followers, we can see a person's social status. Many business transactions are decided in bathhouses, which are also excellent places for philosophers to exchange views and talk. Bath's ancient Roman hot spring bath is still a local key tourism project. Almost all hotels have ancient Roman-style hot spring baths, allowing visitors to experience the luxury and comfort of ancient Roman nobles.
