The Zbarasov Aragonite Caves lie in the valley of the Becva River in the spa village of Teplice and Becvou. Their year-round constant temperature of 14.5 degree Centigrade makes them the warmest caves in the whole Czech Republic. Unique decorations of the caves are formed by the mineral aragonite, as well as raft stalagmites and spherical sinter coatings resembling doughnuts.

The caves were discovered around the turn of the year 1913, and were operated to the public in 1926. Tours are only possible with a guide according to a fixed schedule. The tour circuit is 375 meters long and takes about 1 hour.
