16Door to Hell, Turkmenistan

This 226 foot wide hole was made in 1971 due to the collapsing of a huge Soviet rig into a gas cavern. The natural gas combined with the drilling rig to burn, and has been incessantly burning since then. Its surrounding spots are very popular with visitors looking to camp in the midst of a wild desert.
