<p>Bath's Roman Bath House was a fun visit as it became cold and rainy.  These two wandered around the bathhouse greeting visitors (mostly families) in a Roman manner.  Their attire was a stark, yet beautiful contrast to the bathhouse's colors, and I was lucky enough to catch them between interacting with others.  However, I did get a suspicious glances from them!<br />

Roman bathhouses, especially at Aquae Sulis (Bath, England), weren't just for bathing; they included significant religious areas like the Temple of Sulis Minerva, featuring sacrificial altars for animal offerings and votive stones where people honored gods like Hercules and Bacchus, connecting hygiene, health, and worship through offerings and prayers in a grand complex.</p>
