Indonesia is a super popular destination for tourists, particularly its most famous island, Bali. However, recent times have seen some other Indonesian islands get a little more attention, including Sumatra, located to the west of the country. As one of the biggest islands in the world, Sumatra is home to all kinds of nature and wildlife, including Mount Sinabung Volcano, which didn't cause any problems until recently.
Mount Sinabung Volcano was dormant for more than 400 years before suddenly springing back to life in 2010. Unfortunately, this was right around the time tourists started noticing the little-visited island and planning trips to see it. Since then, deadly eruptions have occurred almost every year, causing locals to lose their homes and lives. Whole villages have been left completely covered in lava and ash, so visit at your own risk.
