Located at 686 meters elevation, Caldas Novas extends across 1,595 square kilometers of Brazilian tropical savanna terrain in central Goiás state.

The discovery of thermal springs in 1777 by explorers Martinho Coelho and Gustavo-Mauricio Silva marked the beginning of settlement in Caldas Novas.

The municipality maintains 86 thermal wells that supply numerous water parks and resorts, forming the foundation of local tourism activities.

Visitors can reach Caldas Novas through regular bus services from Goiânia, located 136 kilometers north, or via direct flights to the local airport.
