Ijen Crater a a glance
Ijen Crater has nearly 1-km-wide, turquoise-colored, acid crater lake. Picturesque Kawah Ijen is the world’s largest highly acidic lake and is the site of a labor-intensive sulfur mining operation in which sulfur-laden baskets are hand-carried from the crater floor. Banyuwangi, a region located on the east tip of Java island, is reachable from Bali by land, Probolingo by train, and Surabaya by train. This region has attractive tourist destinations, and one of the most interesting is IJEN CRATER.
