In Vanuatu
In Vanuatu, you can witness the volcanic eruption
first talk about how to go to Isur volcano: Isul volcano is located on the island of Tana in Vanuatu, the South Pacific island country, I went with the hotel tour car. The road conditions on Tana Island are not very good. It is a dirt road. Therefore, there are few places in the depths of Tana Island for accommodation. The better hotels on the island are very close to the airport, but there are dozens from Issul. The distance from the km road, the hotel we stayed in is about two hours drive to Issul. I don't remember how long our pickup truck has been driving, all the way through the endless mountain road, and finally to the foot of Isur.
Uphill Road is a dirt road, all the way up the mountain, and finally the trekking section, you must climb the crater on foot.
About Izur Volcano: Isul Volcano is located on Tana Island, in the South Pacific Ocean, Vanuatu Islands. It has a circular crater of 1,300 feet (about 396 meters) and has been erupting for centuries and in volcanic activity. When it is the most dense, it can be ejected several times an hour. Interestingly, because of the perennial eruption, pilots and seafarers are used as the "lighthouse" of the Pacific Ocean. Although the volcano is 1,184 feet high (about 361 meters), the lava that is ejected is mostly straight up and down, rarely slanting out, generally does not hurt tourists, so it is known as the "closest active volcano in the world." ". But as one of the most active volcanoes in the world, it is not always possible to climb the crater to observe. Before I came to see the relevant reports, I said that the volcano is active recently, please pay attention to its own safety.
Because of the certain dangers of Isul, there are local regulations that visitors to the volcano must be accompanied by a volcano guide.
Standing in the crater, facing the cold wind on the top of the mountain, the volcano makes a loud noise every few minutes, accompanied by the fire, it is really difficult to describe the feelings inside. The probe overlooks, the crater is like a giant pot, and it is unfathomable. The boiling magma plunges, and the pungent sulphur miso makes it difficult for people to breathe.
On the way to the volcano, you can see this volcanic post office. Vanuatu has two world-wide post offices, one is the famous underwater post office, and the other is the volcanic post office of Issul, which can be purchased at the hotel. Special postcards (including postage), where postcards are delivered are particularly memorable.
