A terrible incident occurred in Indonesia.
Huang Lihong, a 31-year-old Chinese citizen, asked his wife to take a photo of him while he was watching the sunrise on the edge of the volcano.
The woman, who was posing at that time, stumbled and fell into the Ijen Crater in the country’s Banyuwangi city.
Fell into active volcano
The unfortunate woman, who fell into an active volcano from a height of 75 meters, burned to death.
Rescue teams took action after the woman fell and reached the body three hours later.
It was reported that the tourist’s body will be taken to China by air.
Tourists have been warned
On the other hand, Banyuwangi region Conservation Department Head Dwi Putro Sugiarto said that Huang’s death was an accident and that tourists should pay attention to their own safety while climbing Mount Ijen.
The Ijen volcano complex is a group of composite volcanoes located on the border between Banyuwangi Regency and Bondowoso Regency of East Java, Indonesia. It is known for its blue fire, acidic crater lake and sulfur mining.
