2. Tengchong Volcano, which has had a number of hydrothermal events in recent years, is a typical dormant volcanic group.

3. Mt. Fuji Volcano, one of the largest volcanoes in the world, is also a very famous spot in Japan. The most recent eruption occurred in 1707.

4. Mount Aso is located in Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu Island, Japan, and is the symbol of Kumamoto and the origin of its reputation as the "Land of Fire". The most recent eruption occurred in 2016.

5. Mount Bromo is located in the eastern part of the Indonesian island of Java, at an altitude of 2,329 meters, and its most recent eruption occurred in 2011.

1. Tianchi Volcano of Changbai Mountain.

Tianchi Volcano in Changbai Mountain, Jilin Province, China is the most well-preserved Cenozoic multi-genetic composite volcano in China, and the main peak is located in North Korea, with an altitude of 2749m. The 1199-1201 Tenchi eruption was the largest eruption in the world in nearly 2,000 years, when ash fell as far as the Sea of Japan and northern Japan.

2. Tengchong Volcano.

Tengchong volcanic area in Yunnan Province is the most significant area of geothermal display in China's active volcanic area, such as the water temperature in Atami area is about 100, and the hydrothermal activity seems to have increased in recent years, and many hydrothermal events have occurred.

Typical dormant volcanic group. It is one of the youngest volcanic groups in China, and its size and integrity are the largest in the country.

3. Mt. Fuji Volcano.

Mount Fuji in Japan is one of the largest active volcanoes in the world. It is currently dormant, but geologists still classify it as an active volcano. Since the beginning of the written record in 781, there have been 18 eruptions, the last eruption was in 1707, and it has been dormant ever since.

The eruption of Mt. Fuji in 1707 ejected 800 million cubic meters of magma and ash, and the ash that fell on Kawasaki was 5 centimeters thick. ** The volcanic eruption killed about 20,000 people and destroyed more than 60,000 homes.

4. Aso Volcano.

Mt. Aso is a famous active volcano in Japan. Located in the northeastern part of Kumamoto Prefecture on the island of Kyushu, it is the symbol of Kumamoto and the origin of Kumamoto's reputation as the "Land of Fire". It is famous for its duplex volcano with a large caldera.

Its most recent eruption was on October 8, 2016, with an ash cloud of 10,000 meters high, making it the latest volcanic eruption in the world's most volcanically active country.

Tengchong City, which is adjacent to Myanmar in the southwest of Yunnan, is a popular tourist destination, Tengchong is located at the intersection of the Eurasian plate and the Indian continental plate, and the earth's crustal movement is active, bringing frequent and violent volcanic eruptions. After the eruption stops, the karst cools and a volcano is formed. Tengchong has a total of 97 dormant volcanoes, of which 23 have relatively intact craters.

These volcanoes have four types: dome volcanoes, truncated conical volcanoes, shield volcanoes, and low-flat Mar volcanoes, among which the craters of 23 volcanoes are relatively intact, which makes Tengchong Volcano famous for its complete type, large scale, concentrated distribution and relatively complete preservation, and Tengchong is also known as the "Natural Volcano Geology Museum".

Development History.

Tengchong Volcano. In 1609, Xu Xiake investigated Tengchong volcano and geothermal heat, and recorded in "Xu Xiake's Travels: Yunnan Travel Diary IX": "Turen Palace:

30 years ago (1609), there were big trees and giant bamboos on it, blinded and seamless, there were dragons and Tan four, the depth was unfathomable, and the sound of feet was surging, and people did not dare to approach; After there are shepherds, a thunder and shock the sheep five or six hundred and several shepherds, even day and night fire, the big tree is deep, the fire is not passed, the pond also becomes a land, there is a hole out of the water under the mountain today, all from the root of the mountain to tease the clouds.

The stone on the top of the mountain, the color manuscript is red and frivolous, like a beehive, it is a foam formation, although it is big enough to hug together, and the two fingers can be carried, but its quality is still strong, and the gray is really ruined.

To date, no evidence of chronology or other relevant aspects has been found, so it is tentatively classified as an unconfirmed eruption.

From Li Gengen's "Records of the Martyrs' Relics", "Tengchong has many volcanoes, and the chronicles indicate that there were many volcanic eruptions during the Chenghua, Zhengde, Jiajing, and Wanli periods", indicating that hundreds of years ago, there were eruptions in the Tengchong volcanic area, but they were all unconfirmed eruptions.

It is believed that Tengchong volcano erupted before 6000 BC.

One of the more famous active volcanoes in Asia is Mt. Fuji, which is actually an active volcano, and there are many active volcanoes in Indonesia.

I saw this picture of Mayon Volcano in a magazine a long time ago, and I have been longing for it. Finally, one day, I saved enough money to travel abroad and decided to go to the Philippines to see this active volcano that is even more shocking than Mount Fuji, and there are no direct flights to Legazpi from Chinese mainland and Hong Kong, so I can only transit through Mani. So I bought a four-leg round-trip ticket to Legazpi on my vacation and climbed to get closer to the volcano of my dreams.

Because legazpi is transliterated as Li Ya Sebi in Chinese, it is also known as Legaspi. The name is said to have originated as a personal commander-in-chief during the Spanish invasion of the Philippines in the fifteenth century, and was later named in honor of the colonizer and adventurer. Legazpi is located on the island of Luzon and is the capital of Albay Province, located 550 kilometers from Manila.

The land is fertile, and thankfully Mayon is larger than expected, so you can see it almost anywhere in the city.

The locals say that the church at the top of the hill is the best place to observe the Mayon volcano, because I came in the wrong season, until the next day the distant Mayon volcano finally revealed some of its true faces. From multiple angles, Mayon Volcano is still shrouded in clouds. I think I'm just standing here, waiting for the wind to come.

It wasn't until sunset that I had a chance to see it in its entirety, and the hotel waiter told me to get up at 6 a.m. and open the curtains to see the volcano in its entirety.

Mount Etna is the largest, tallest, and most active volcano in Europe and one of the most famous in the world. It is located in the Mediterranean volcanic belt, where the Eurasian plate meets the African plate.

Located in the northeastern corner of Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea at the southern tip of Italy, and 29 kilometers south of the island's capital, Catania, it is a black, free-standing cone. The main crater is 3,323 meters above sea level and 500 meters in diameter, surrounded by more than 200 smaller volcanic cones.

According to the literature, Mount Etna has erupted more than 500 times and is known as the most eruptive volcano in the world. Its first known fissure eruption was in 475 B.C., more than 2,400 years ago. The most violent eruption occurred in 1669 AD, which lasted for four months, and the lava erupted with a volume of 100 million cubic meters, which washed into the nearby city of Catania, killing 20,000 people.

In order to make it easier to visit, in the 60s, a closed mountain road and cable cars were built on the volcano, of which the 4,200-meter-long cable car terminates not far from the main crater. On the mountain, there are ancient Zen reeds commemorating the Roman Emperor Hadrian's climb of Mount Etna. At an altitude of 915 meters above sea level, the soil is very fertile, and it is densely populated with vineyards, olive groves, citrus groves, etc.

Cleveland Volcano, at 1,730 meters above sea level, is one of the most active volcanoes in the Aleutian Islands. Pacaya Volcano is a complex active volcano located in Guatemala, located on the Mesoamerican volcanic arc along the Pacific Ocean, at an altitude of 2,252 meters. Mount Merapi, the most active and largest of Indonesia's 130 volcanoes, occurred in 1006.

Sur Volcano, located on Tanna Island in the South Pacific Ocean of Vanuatu, is only 361 meters above sea level, but has many craters within 400 meters. Collima Volcano, located in a sparsely populated and remote area of the state of Collima in western Mexico, is located about 500 kilometers from Mexico City and has a height of 3,860 meters. Mount Erebus, an active volcano in Antarctica, has active fumaroles inside and outside the crater.

Kilauvia Volcano, an active volcano in the Hawaiian Islands, is one of the five shield-shaped volcanoes that make up Hawaii Island. Sakurajima Volcano is an active volcano that is still very active today. Stromboli volcano, 926 meters above sea level, has a crater diameter of about 580 meters.

Ertaare, also known as Eteaare, is located in the Afar region of northeastern Ethiopia and is one of the most active volcanoes in Ethiopia.

2. Pacaya Volcano.

Located in Guatemala in Central America, this volcano last erupted in June 2010 and is currently the most active volcano in the world. The first eruption is said to have occurred 10,000 years ago, and since the beginning of the 21st century, there have been six eruptions of various sizes.

3. Mount Merapi.

According to relevant data and studies, Mount Merapi began to erupt as early as 400,000 years ago, with the worst being in 1930, destroying 13 villages and killing 1,400 people.

4. Mount Azur.

Located in Oceania, Mount Azur is one of the most active volcanoes in the world, with its 400-meter radius and craters of various sizes, which have erupted many times over the centuries.

5. Collima Volcano.

With a rock age of 5 million years and a peak of 4,330 meters above sea level, Collima is the most destructive active volcano in Mexico, with 25 major eruptions in the last 500 years.

Mainly in the area where several major geological plates meet.

1. Pacific Rim Volcanic Belt: It is basically the same as the ** belt, from the west coast of South and North America, Alaska, and the Aleutian Islands, through Kamchatka, Japan's Quezhi Islands, the Philippine Islands, and New Zealand. There are more than 300 active volcanoes in this zone, accounting for nearly 80 active volcanoes in the world, including 100 on the west coast of South and Central America and the West Indies.

There are more than 90 blind islands in Alaska, the Aleutian Islands, Kamchatka and the Japanese archipelago. There are about 200 in the western and southwestern Pacific Oceans, including 90 in Indonesia, making it the country with the largest number of volcanoes in the world. For example, the volcanoes of Japan, the Philippines and Chile that erupted in 1991, and the volcanoes in the eastern part of China, all belong to this zone.

2. The Mediterranean-Himalayan volcanic ** belt, including southern Europe, the coastal areas of North Africa, West Asia, Central Asia, the northwest and southwest of China, northern India, the western part of the Indochina Peninsula and the Malay Archipelago.

3. The volcanic ** zone of the Oceanic Ridge (Middle Ridge), including the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the Indian Ocean Ridge, and the Mid-Ridge (Mound) of the Eastern Pacific.

4. The Continental Rift Volcanic Zone, which mainly refers to the East African Rift Belt, which starts from the lower reaches of the Zambezi River in the south, passes through the East African Plateau, the Ethiopian Plateau, and the Red Sea in the north, and reaches the Dead Sea and the Jordan Valley.

The Pacific Rim Volcanic Belt is the world's largest volcanic belt, accounting for half of the world's volcanic belt, and volcanic activity often occurs.

The largest of these are the Pacific Rim Volcanic Belt and the Himalaya-Mediterranean Belt. All of them are located in the ** belt on the Eurasian continent, with frequent crustal activities, strong effects, and the greatest impact.
