Mount Tambora, Sumbawa

Not active at present, the 2.820 meters high volcano Tambora. Infamous for its savage eruption on July 5 -July 15, 1815 where falling debris, hot gases and lava streams killed more than 12,000 people. Some 44,000 more perished of hunger in the aftermath of the explosion. The top, now a big caldera has two colored lakes. From the rim of the crater the view over the rest of the island, the sea, Mt. Rinjani, and the island of Lombok in the distance is breathtaking. The mountain occupies almost the entire Sanggar peninsula.
