Kelimutu Volcano: is a
volcano, close to the small town of Moni about 50 km to the east of
Ende, Indonesia in central Flores Island of Indonesia. The volcano
contains three striking summit crater lakes of varying colors. Tiwu Ata
Mbupu (Lake of Old People) is usually blue and is the westernmost of the
three lakes. The other two lakes, Tiwu Nuwa Muri Koo Fai (Lake of Young
Men and Maidens) and Tiwu Ata Polo (Bewitched or Enchanted Lake) are
separated by a shared crater wall and are typically green or red
respectively. The lake colors vary on a periodic basis. Subaqueous
fumaroles are the probable cause of active upwelling that occurs at the
two eastern lakes.
