valsinats discovered 3 months ago- Turkmenistan - Darvaza - Burning Gas Craters

jean-mi-mi rated 8 days ago- a very hot trip !

BenitoTinto rated 8 days ago- That has a very eerie, other-worldly quality!

Bongo23 rated 11 days ago- In the heart of the Karakum desert of Turkmenistan the Darvaza Gas Crater or The Burning Gates give off a glow that can be seen from miles away during the dark night. The large crater is a result of a Soviet gas exploration accident in the 1950's. It was created when a Soviet drilling rig was drilling for natural gas fell into an underground cavern resulting in a crater which today measures roughly 60 meters in diameter and 20 meters deep. The huge crater was set alight shortly after being discovered and has been burning ever sense. The recognizable smell of burning natural gas can be detected from a distance and becomes quite strong as you near the hot edge of the crater.
