Its is located in a village in Derweze in middle of Turkmenistan Karakum Desert. Door to hell is a massive man made mining disaster. In the Soviet era in 1971, in the process of mining of natural gas, suddenly part of desert collapsed and that resulted into the toxic gases like methane to leak for decades. To stop the toxic gas to the nearby towns, Soviet engineers put the crater on fire hoping it to stop after sometime. But unfortunately, it didn't stop and till now it continues to burn for almost 47 years now. Over the years, because of Darvaza Gas Crater, Turkmenistan has become a popular tourist attraction. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Please like, comment, share & subscribe.
