Although Bath’s attractions are currently closed, you can still get a flavour of some of the city's highlights on a virtual tour.
Explore the Roman Baths, a grand bathing and socialising complex constructed in around 70AD, admire stunning city views from the rooftop pool of Thermae Bath Spa, virtually visit Bath Assembly Rooms, which was used for dancing, card playing, tea drinking and conversation in Georgian Bath, and take a tour of the Theatre Royal Bath's historic Main House.
We've put together a roundup of virtual tours that you can enjoy from the comfort of your own home...
Watch Bath on Screen
Bath has long attracted directors and producers eager to feature the city’s stunning Georgian architecture and surrounding manor houses and countryside on both the big and small screen.
The city features in Hollywood hits including Les Misérables, The Duchess, and Vanity Fair. On the small screen, the cobbled Queen Street stood in for Victorian England in a special episode of Sherlock. More recently, you might have noticed Bath in The Trial of Christine Keeler and Belgravia, and the city had a starring role in detective drama McDonald and Dodds.
Settle down for an evening of entertainment and discover one of the city's on-screen credits...
Discover Bath's Museums Online
Bath has more museums in just one square mile than most larger cities can boast altogether, offering a wealth of remarkable stories. Although the city's museums aren't currently open for visits, many offer the chance to learn about Bath's unique history from home.
Browse the Fashion Museum Bath's iconic Dress of the Year collection, get a glimpse of eighteenth-century life on a digital tour of No.1 Royal Crescent, find out more about Palladianism in the city and post-war Bath on the Museum of Bath Architecture website, and browse a collection of over 40,000 high-quality historical images of Bath in Time.
Here's our roundup of Bath museums that you can discover online...
Support Local by Paying it Forward
With museums and attractions, restaurants, hotels and many other businesses currently closed, these are challenging times for the hospitality industry.
Making a donation or purchasing a voucher or gift card to be used later are brilliant ways to help support these businesses while you stay home and stay safe.
Whether you want to pre-plan a future stay, a spa day, or a trip to the theatre or cinema, purchase the perfect gift for a loved one, or make a donation to help support your favourite museum, there are plenty of great ways to pay it forward in Bath.
Download Learning Resources and At-Home Activities
If you're looking for at-home activities to enjoy with the kids, there are plenty of local resources on offer.
Youngsters can learn about one of the best-preserved Roman remains in the world, discover the extensive collection of the only museum in the UK solely dedicated to the arts and cultures of East and South East Asia, enjoy a range of online activities themed around the six features that make Bath a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and explore architectural concepts through a series of fun LEGO® challenges.
To help make finding things to do at home a little easier, here's our guide to Bath-themed learning resources and at-home activities that you can find online...
Take Care of Your Wellbeing
Although local gyms, leisure centres and wellbeing spaces are currently closed, many have moved their much-needed services online.
Take some time for yourself with a virtual meditation session with The Soul Spa, take an energising yoga class, dance yourself fit or sing your heart out with The Edge, stay in and work out with free fitness classes from Team Bath, or stay active with the YMCA Bath's free streamed classes, including kettlebells and mixed martial arts.
Here's our roundup of virtual ways to take care of your wellbeing during this difficult time...
