LOCATION
The City of Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage site located in the south west
of England.
Founded by the Romans as a thermal spa, Bath became an important centre of
the wool industry in the Middle Ages.
In the 18th century, under King George III, it developed into an elegant
town with neoclassical Palladian buildings, which blend harmoniously with
the Roman baths.
The University of Bath campus is situated in the hills surrounding the
city and is a leading UK University with an international reputation for
quality teaching and research.
Further information about the University of Bath, how to get here and
finding your way around is available.
A social programme is scheduled to allow participants to enjoy Bath and the
surrounding area at its best.
Bath can be easily reached by road, train or air.
For international participants, Bath is best served by either Bristol
International Airport (with Ryanair and Easyjet) or London Heathrow;
we discourage using any of the other London airports.
Participants also attending IJCAI 2005 after the workshop might find it
convenient to book flights between Bristol and Edinburgh.
