Batman didn't exactly win the superhero lottery, so to speak. He can't shoot lightening out of his eyes or fly around like a bird. He was gifted with amazing intellect and ingenuity, plus he has the motive he needs to defeat all the crooks and villains that terrorize the streets of Gotham City. His detective skills are not something to be scoffed at either. His power is essentially his mind. A superhero that can pull that off is definitely a truly inspirational one. Batman is always using his brain noodle and usually isn't as reckless as heroes like Superman (Although, that is to be expected from a master strategist.) Granted, he kind of has to be since he isn't invulnerable to things like bullets and fists. He can take a beating though. Also, he is trained to fight in quite a few different martial arts styles and he has gone through intense training. In fact, he is even strong enough to bend steel bars. It's been said that he is stronger than some beings with superhuman strength. Not to mention that he has great speed, agility, endurance, and he is an incredibly skilled acrobat.
Along with that, Batman can intimidate his foes. The fact that he can tie you up and hang you from a ceiling or knock you out without you even knowing what happened truly does send a message to the criminal underworld of Gotham City. That message is fear. I would not want to be a criminal in Gotham. Batman is not the most forgiving individual and his interrogation skills are not to be trifled with.
He even has a utility belt full of gadgets and gizmos for every occasion like batarangs, detonators, a signal device for the Batmobile, a re-breather, lock picks, forensic kits, a first-aid kit, and on an occasion or two I remember that he had some kryptonite just in case Superman ever went over to the dark side and started attacking people. I'm pretty sure that he has something for most every occasion. Then there's the Batmobile which is just made of win. It was originally a red convertible that looked similar to a Lincoln. The later Batmobiles were a bit more stylish and looked more like something Batman would drive. It didn't just look nifty though, over the years the Batmobile gained many different kinds of gadgets that include but are not limited to a dashboard radar, a traveling crime lab, a Geiger counter, a sound-distinguishing Bat-tector, grappling equipment, and a fire extinguisher.
Batman's secret identity works as a good cover in itself. Not many would consider that the playboy and philanthropist, Bruce Wayne, would dress up like a bat and run around Gotham City fighting crime.
So there you have it. That is why, I think, Batman is awesome. Please leave your opinions of Batman if you feel inclined to do so.
