Tangkuban Perahu Crater

Near Bandung Indonesia (on Java): this is the volcanic crater of Tangkuban Perahu, the only crater in Java accessible all the way by car as far as its rim. It is an awe-inspiring sight of emanating sulfur fumes. Descent into all the volcano's 12 craters is only possible with the aid of an experienced guide, because of the presence of suffocating gases at certain spots. A fifteen minute drive from Tangkuban Perahu is a hot springs resort. Here you can swim in warm mineral water pools... ahhhh... Indonesia.
