Where were the main baths in Ancient Rome?

Believe it or not, there were no main baths in ancient Rome. There were many private baths, private in the sense that they were owned by individuals and not the State. The wealthy also had personal baths in their homes. Marcus Agrippa was one of the first, if not the first to build a public bath. From his time onward, the public bath culture took hold. By the time of the emperor Nero there were 1,000 baths in Rome. Bigger and better seemed to be the keyword for baths. The baths of Caracalla held 1,600 people and the Baths of Diocletian held a whopping 3,000 people. So you could loosely say that the larger baths of Caracalla and Diocletian were the main baths, simply because of their size.
