      Typical for Dve Mogili Municipality is the beautiful and ecological clean nature, combined with a big cultural and historical inheritance.

It is 13 500 m long and it is the second longest in the country. It was discovered by chance in 1941. It is one of the most beautiful caves in Bulgaria and attracts numerous tourists from the country and abroad. Its galleries are full of numerous stalactites, stalagmites and stalactons. They are inhabited by over 15 cave species, including an endemic bat species. There is a project for the preservation of the biological variety in the cave, which is financed by European funds.
