Roman Baths in the town of Qanawat

The Roman Baths of Qanawat, located in the ancient city of Qanawat, were an integral part of the expansive Roman architectural complex, which also included temples, theaters, and civic buildings. These baths served as public leisure facilities and reflect a remarkably advanced level of infrastructure engineering for their time.
They featured steam rooms, cold and hot-water pools, and a sophisticated underfloor heating system known as the hypocaust. The baths remained in active use until the early Byzantine period, after which their usage gradually declined—leaving behind echoes of Roman social life and technological prowess.
