Description: |
|
Towering 3,033 metres above sea level, Mount Agung is the
highest mountain on the island of Bali and the fifth highest
volcano in the whole of Indonesia. Mount Agung has huge
spiritual significance to the people of the island, and is home
to the 'Mother Temple' of Besakih. It forms part of a chain of
volcanos that make up the back bone of Bali. Mount Agung last
erupted in 1963. This was one of the largest 20th century
eruptions anywhere in the world. Historical eruptions of the
volcano are poorly recorded, but there was certainly one in the
1820s. |
