Leading Russian tourism publication, the information group "TURPROM," recently published an exciting article about the mysterious phenomenon—the flaming "Gates of Hell" in Turkmenistan. This astonishing natural feature attracts thousands of tourists from around the world and has become one of the country's major attractions.

The article from "TURPROM" describes an industrial accident that over half a century ago led to the formation of the Darvaza gas crater in the Karakum Desert. Today, this site, fueled by methane flames, presents a unique spectacle, especially impressive at night when the flames shine under the starry sky.
