Incredible Congo’s Lake made of ‘LAVA’

KINSHASA: Almost lakes show beautiful and natural scenes but lake made of ‘LAVA’ showing incredible scenes. 32-years-old Russian photographers Mikhail Korostelev take the lake’s hypnotic patterns photos that show billowing smoke and lava bubbles bursting from its surface. The amazing spectacle is present in central African country ‘Congo’ is rarely seen as the conflict means the lake is difficult to reach. Hidden in the depths of Mountain Nyiragongo, climbers must trek to an altitude of nearly 11, 400 feet to catch a glimpse of the lava lake. “Nyiragongo is one of the most active volcanoes in the world, erupting on average every 30 years”, said Mikhail Korostelev. He ventured to the edge of the crater with wife Anastasia 28-year-old and the couple enjoyed the view for 20 minutes until it clouded over with smoke. Mr. Korostelev said that we did not expect to see this incredible spectacle until the last few metres of ascent, adding, the lava lake in the crater acts almost constantly and the crater has sheer walls around 328 feet.
