Mind-blown to visit Kawah Ijen 🌋

#indonesiatrip
💙 Kawah Ijen is a volcanic crater lake located in East Java, Indonesia. It's famous for its turquoise-blue waters, which are colored by the high concentration of dissolved sulfur. The crater is also known for its sulfur mining activities, which take place at night under a surreal blue flame.

🚐 The nearest major city to Kawah Ijen is Banyuwangi. From there, you can rent a car, take a tour, or hire a private driver.

🥾 The hike to the crater rim is challenging, involving steep slopes and uneven terrain. It takes approximately 1-2 hours round trip.

🌛To see the blue flame, you'll need to hike down into the crater at night. The intensity of the blue flame can vary depending on the volcanic activity.
