The Darvaza area of Turkmenistan is rich in natural gas. Accidently while drilling, Geologists found a cavern filled with gas and the ground collapsed leaving a hole approx. 100 meters in diameter. To take care of the poisonous gas spewing from the hole they decided to set it on fire. The locals now call it The Door to Hell and it's been burning since 1971.
