Derweze, the Door to Hell
 

Have you ever wondered what hell looks like? Travel to Derweze and you’ll get a pretty good idea. Derweze is located in the Ahal province in Turkmenistan. After a drilling accident, some 40 years ago, a gas reserve was found, which happens to be one of the largest in the world. When the locals saw the fire and boiling mud, they named the pit the Door to Hell.
