The Baths of Caracalla are another example of an amazing feat of architecture left to us by the Romans! And an oasis of tranquility to view everything at your leisure. Especially compared to the Colosseum or the Fora. In terms of information I found the signs brief. Even without a guide you should be able to get a good picture. Therefore, I definitely recommend going with a guide.

They have in very good condition the archaeological remains. The only thing missing is more visible signs to get the audio guide.Fouilland

Les lunettes pour la visite virtuelle qui, en plus des propos propos intéressants, nous permettent de mieux appréhender la vie romaine de l' époque.
The Thermae Antonianae, one of the largest and best-preserved examples of an ancient spa complex, was constructed under the auspices of Emperor Caracalla in the southern part of the city. The building was finished in 216 A.D. and exhibits the rectangular plan typical of Imperial spa centers. The spa itself was not simply a place for bathing, sport, and health, it was also a place of study and for relaxing.
Around the center of the structure the various parts of the spa are found in sequential order: the "Calidarium", the "Tepidarium", the "Frigidarium" and the "Natatio". There are also other zones and areas to be found around the two gymnasiums. The water system was made possible by the construction of a special duct from the main aqueduct called the Aqua Antoniana. Throughout its history the spa was reconstructed several times and before finally closing altogether in 537 A.D.
A treat for lovers of history, this visit to the Caracalla Baths will give you a glimpse into the private lives of the ancient Roman world.
