Explore the Xiao You Keng volcanic crater in Taiwan

Xiao You Keng (Chinese: 小油坑) is a post-volcanic geological landscape located in northern Taiwan, within Yangmingshan National Park in Taipei.

This site is renowned for its volcanic craters, smoke, sulfur crystals, hot springs, and the stunning "landslide" terrain formed by volcanic eruptions.

Visitors can take a bus from Taipei to Yangmingshan National Park, which offers several walking trails and hiking routes for exploration. The highlight of this visit is the volcanic crater, featuring bubbling sulfur pools and strong-smelling fumes. Despite the intense smell, the area is incredibly photogenic and perfect for exploration and photography.
