Technical Tour Destination
KAWAH PUTIH is a striking crater lake and tourist
spot in a volcanic crater about 50 km south of
Bandung in West Java in Indonesia. Kawah Putih
lake (7.10° S 107.24° E) is one of the two craters
which make up Mount Patuha, an andesitic
stratovolcano (a "composite" volcano).
TANGKUBAN PERAHU (spelt Tangkuban Parahu in the local
Sundanese dialect) is a stratovolcano 30 km north of the city of
Bandung, the provincial capital of West Java, Indonesia. It
erupted in 1826, 1829, 1842, 1846, 1896, 1910, 1926, 1929,
1952, 1957, 1961, 1965, 1967, 1969, 1983, and 2013. It is a
popular tourist attraction where tourists can hike or ride to the
edge of the crater to view the hot water springs and boiling mud
up close, and buy eggs cooked on the hot surface.[2] Together
with Mount Burangrang and Bukit Tunggul, it is a remnant of the
ancient Mount Sunda after the plinian eruption caused the
Caldera to collapse.
