Largest concentration of asteroids

According to Official Guinness Records,

The main asteroid belt lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It contains between 700,000 and 1,700,000 asteroids that are at least 1 km across, and many millions of smaller bodies. The total mass of the asteroid belt is equivalent to just 4%o of the mass of Earth’s Moon, with around half the mass of the whole belt accounted for by the four largest asteroids.
