Apo volcano is the highest mountain in the Philippines, and its name means "Master" or "Grandfather". There are no known historic eruptions, but the volcano is considered still active.

Sfondo:

Apo volcano is an a basaltic to basaltic-andesitic stratovolcano and part of the Central Mindanao Arc, but its volcanic history is poorly known. The densely forested volcano has a flat summit with 3 peaks, the highest of which in the SW is known as Davao volcano and has a 500 m wide crater with a small lake.
The youngest crater is located on the northern peak. Several fumaroles and sulfur deposits occur on the volcano, most notably fumaroles along a fissure on the SE side down to 2400 m elevation.
The Mt. Apo Geothermal Field is a 8.4 km2 geothermal exploration field near Mt Apo, which has been being exploited since October 1996.

Kawah Ratu - Mt. Tangkuban Perahu, West Java, Indonesia <br><br> Mt. Tangkuban Perahu è il vulcano più famoso di Bandung a soli 28 km a nord della città. Questo vulcano ha una forma caratteristica, come una barca a testa in giù (Tangkuban Perahu significa, infatti, &quot;up-gir barca&quot;), ha tre crateri in cui i turisti possono camminare attraverso le aree. Questi tre crateri sono: Kawah Ratu, Kawah Domas e Kawah Upas. <br> Kawah Ratu, che significa &quot;regina Crater&quot;, è oggi solo un grande buco grigio, che a volte ha uno specchio d'acqua al centro. Gas tossici a volte si accumulano nel Kawah Ratu, rendendo così un po 'un rischio di scendere al fondo del cratere. Al di là della depressione a forma di sella sul lato opposto della Kawah Ratu è ancora attivo Kawah Upas, il più antico cratere sulla montagna. Sulla scogliera molto lontano occidentale si vede un luogo dove tutta la vegetazione è stata distrutta dalla costante crescita vapori solforosi. Sulle pareti del cratere, notare i vari strati di materiale, composto da roccia, sabbia e ciottoli. Ore di lavoro straordinario, nuovi crateri si sono formati più e più volte in un turno piuttosto consistente da ovest a est. (Photo: JessyEykendorp)

The endless expanse of the great salt plain Lake Assale located at 130 m below sea level in the northern Danakil depression near the Eritrean border. The surface crust forms hexagonal plates caused by evaporation and distribution of tension while the crust dries out. In this area, the salt deposit is several kilometers thick and tells about the tectonic force that rips Africa apart in this area, creating a deep trench, where sea water has invaded in the past and evaporated, leaving salt deposits behind.
