Which is said to only exist in two places in the world. Blue fire comes out of the crater rim which happens to have sulfur mining.

Ijen Crater mountain climbing opens at 1 am and before entering you must have proof of a health certificate from a doctor or health clinic. Of course, after you buy an entrance ticket and have complete requirements, you are invited to enter to start climb Kawah Ijen.
Ijen Crater is located in Banyuwangi, East Java, and is approximately one hour’s drive from Banyuwangi City to the Ijen Crater mountain climbing ticket counter. The distance from the ticket counter to the blue fire location is approximately 3 km and has a wide footpath. After you walk to the top, you have to go down the crater rim to reach the blue fire location, because its location is below near the lake and the sulfur center.
Always be careful when you go down this cliff, because thick smoke often comes suddenly and you have difficulty seeing the road. For this reason, it is better to hire a local guide. Who will show you where the blue fire is and guide you to find the way when there is thick smoke. The scenery here is so beautiful and for those of you who like to take pictures, this place is perfect for you.
