Active volcano that is a popular tourist destination. Tourists can walk across the crater and view bubbling mud pools, steam vents, and sulfur deposits. The bubbling yellow crater is a popular sight. It erupted in 2002, and serious volcanic activity took place in 2011. In 2015, the alert level was lowered to the lowest level.
Mount Papandayan is a complex stratovolcano, located in Garut Regency, to the southeast of the city of Bandung in West Java, Indonesia. It is about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) to the southwest of the town of Garut. At the summit, there are four large craters which contain active fumarole fields. An eruption in 1772 caused the northeast flank to collapse producing a catastrophic debris avalanche that destroyed 40 villages and killed nearly 3,000 people. The eruption truncated the volcano into a broad shape with two peaks and a flat area 1.1 km wide with Alun-Alun crater in the middle, making the mountain appear as a twin volcano; one of the peaks is called Papandayan and the other Mount Puntang.
