The Door to Hell

March 27th, 2008 by eddyra on World

This place in Uzbekistan is called by locals “The Door to Hell”. It is situated near the small town of Darvaz. The story of this place lasts already for 35 years. Once the geologists were drilling for gas. Then suddenly during the drilling they have found an underground cavern, it was so big that all the drilling site with all the equipment and camps got deep deep under the ground.

None dared to go down there because the cavern was filled with gas. So they ignited it so that no poisonous gas could come out of the hole, and since then, it’s burning, already for 35 years without any pause.

Nobody knows how many tons of excellent gas has been burned for all those years but it just seems to be infinite there.

    Dear cikgu waliz,
    I have always tried very hard to not be a political blogger. I have tried very hard not to use this blog as an outlet for my personal political views.

    There has been a lot of talk about political in relation to the General election lately. I know it’s hard to keep the politics out of this.
