Bath's Pulteney Bridge is a truly unique architectural gem and a must-see for any visitor to the city. What sets it apart is that it's one of only a handful of bridges in the world to be lined with shops on both sides, making it a functional crossing and a charming street in its own right. Designed by the renowned neoclassical architect Robert Adam in the late 18th century, the bridge spans the River Avon and offers a picturesque scene, especially with the horseshoe-shaped weir below. The bridge itself, with its Palladian-style facade, is a sight to behold, but the best view is arguably from the riverside, either from Parade Gardens or a boat cruise.

Lovely historic spot with beautiful architecture and great views. Plenty to see and do nearby, and the little shops on the bridge add to the charm. Definitely worth a visit!
