Kawah Ijen – Banyuwangi Tours

EXPLORING THE BEAUTY OF THE PANORAMIC IN THE KAWAH IJEN BANYUWANGI IN EAST JAVA

Kawah Ijen is one of the active volcanos in East Java. The Turquoise Lake in the Kawah Ijen and the mystical world that the smoke creates around it attract tourists from all over the globe. The Kawah Ijen is not only a major tourist attraction; it is also a source of an important natural resource: Sulphur.

Every day, the Volcano produces around 60 tonnes of sulphur, which is then collected by the local people. This is far from an easy task. The miners carry the sulphur rocks from the Crater down to the village in bamboo baskets, weighing up to 90 kilograms! Besides sulphur, the Ijen Volcano also contains natural gas. At night, the combination of heat and sulphur creates a magnificent, natural phenomenon referred to as the Blue Flame.
