Kawah Putih (White Crater)

South of Bandung in West Java, the eerie mists of Kawah Putih (White Crater) envelop dead trees around a pale turquoise, acidic lake. This striking body of water fills the caldera of an extinct volcano, creating a surreal and otherworldly landscape. While the water’s high acidity makes it unsuitable for swimming, visitors can walk out onto a jetty to capture the unique and haunting beauty of the site. The combination of mist, still water, and the surrounding volcanic terrain offers a memorable and photogenic experience.
