The Baths of Caracalla in Rome, Italy, were the second largest Roman public baths, or thermae, built in Rome between AD 212 and 216, during the reign of the Emperor Caracalla.
The Baths of Caracalla in Rome, Italy were Roman public baths, or thermae, built in Rome between AD 212 and 216, during the reign of the Emperor Caracalla. The extensive ruins of the baths have become a popular tourist attraction. The bath complex covered approximately 13 hectares (33 ac). The bath building was 228 meters (750 ft) long, 116 meters (380 ft) wide and 38.5 meters (125 ft) estimated height, and could hold an estimated 1,600 bathers. The Caracalla bath complex of buildings was more a leisure centre than just a series of baths. The "baths" were the second to have a public library within the complex. Like other public libraries in Rome, there were two separate and equal sized rooms or buildings; one for Greek language texts and one for Latin language texts.
One of many pigs scattered around Bath as part of an arts exhibition. This one was in the Roman Baths.
I finally went and saw the Roman Baths and I was not dissapointed. What a lot of history on the doorstep!

We never went to these because you had to walk down a dirt road etc and we had baths right outside our front door!
The Sutro Baths were a large, privately owned swimming pool complex near Seal Rock in San Francisco, California, built in the late 19th century. The facility was financially unprofitable and is now in ruins.
Round the back of Whitevale Baths, overgrown and derelict. Seems such a shame to let a building like this fall apart.
There are some steep stairs just past the beach between these rocks. They lead to this awesome terrace restaurant. We did lunch there one day. It seems like everytime we sit down to eat on this trip it's 50 bucks. No matter what, it's so strange. It must be their perfect price point for two.
