[Indonesia] Mount Ijen, like another planet🏔️

A volcano located in the eastern part of Java, Indonesia. A beautiful emerald green crater lake, and if you're lucky, you can see the rare blue flames (blue fires). [Attractive points of Mt. Ijen] 1. Blue fire: The blue flames seen from midnight to dawn are a rare phenomenon that can only be observed in a few places in the world. 2. Spectacular view of the crater lake: The crater lake, which is about 1 km in diameter, shines emerald green and looks like another planet. 🪐 [Recommended clothing and belongings] Warm clothing: Because it is about 2,799 m above sea level, it gets cold especially at night and early in the morning. A windbreaker or fleece is a good idea. Trekking shoes: There are many unstable places, so non-slip shoes are essential. Dust mask: In areas with strong sulfur gas, a mask is required to protect your breathing (local tours may provide one). Flashlight or headlamp: To see the blue fire, you start climbing at midnight, so a light to illuminate the darkness is essential. You can also use a smartphone light. [Recommended time and season to visit] Time: It's best to start climbing at 2am and watch the blue fire and the sunrise at the peak. If you start at 2am, you can climb at a fairly slow pace, so even those who are not very physically fit can feel at ease. Season: The best time to climb is the dry season (April to October). #tripoverseastravel #Indonesia #JavaIsland #Mt.Ijen
