Jaskinia Na Turoldu, Limestone cave system in Mikulov, Czech Republic.
The cave extends through 2 kilometers of corridors and halls, featuring white walls adorned with calcite crystals and coral-like formations throughout its passages.
First documented in 1669, limestone mining affected the original cave until 1951 when a new system was discovered and later opened to visitors in 1967.
The cave serves as a winter shelter for multiple bat species and contributes to the natural heritage of the Pálava Biosphere Reserve.
Visitors can explore 300 meters of accessible pathways, descending 37 meters via stairs to reach an underground lake measuring 8 meters in depth.
The cave walls display distinctive cauliflower-shaped formations and stone foam patterns, which occur in only three caves worldwide.
