Door to Hell

This scenery is exist in the middle east country, Uzbekistan. It is near the small town of Darvaz. Locals call it ‘The Door to Hell’.

It started 35 years ago, while Geologists were drilling for gas, when they found a large ravine under ground.

Nobody dare to get down to the ravine since it’s filled full of poisonous gas.

To avoid the gas from coming out and soil the earth, they ignited the gas expecting it to burn out of the poisonous gas.

But the fire is still on, until now. It’s been 35 years this hole has never stop burning, even for while.
