Kamchatka peninsula is located in the Russian Far East, bordering the Sea of Okhotsk in the west and the Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea in the east. The length from north to south is about 1200 km, the widest point is about 480 km, and the area is about 370,000 square kilometers.
volcano
Kamchatka peninsula is one of the most active places of volcanic activity in the world. Various volcanic phenomena such as geysers and mineral-rich hot springs can fully prove this point. There are more than 300 volcanoes on the peninsula (including caldera, volcano, exovolcano and mixed volcano), of which 29 are very active. Fukaya volcano in Liu Qie is the highest volcano in Eurasia, with an altitude of 4,750 meters. There are many extinct volcanoes in Croskey Nature Reserve in the south.
Kamchatka Volcano Group is one of the most famous volcanic areas in the world. It has different types and characteristics of high-density active volcanoes. Five distinctive volcanoes make up the unique landscape of kamchatka peninsula.

There are many hot and cold fountains on the peninsula, including 85 hot fountains and rare geysers, most of which are in Croskey Nature Reserve. Fountains have different components, such as acid springs, sulfur springs and ammonia-alkali springs. Among the geysers, "Giant Spring" is the most spectacular.
Although the eruption time this spring is not long, it is very strong. First, the spring water fills the outlet and then bubbles and boils. Finally, a huge water column suddenly rises, and the jet height can reach 10 m ~ 15 m, and the whole valley is shrouded in clouds. At the moment, the river is gurgling, the spring is gurgling, the steam is steaming, and the underground rumbles, which is thrilling. In the tributary area of Shunaya River, where geysers are dense, springs are rushing to spew, one after another, and clouds are lingering, which is another scenery.
Death valley
Death Valley is located in the foothills of Kikhpinech volcano in the upper reaches of the Hot Fountain River, in the south of Croskey Nature Reserve. The canyon is 2000 meters long, with a width of 100 to 300 meters and an altitude of 1000 meters. There are mountain streams flowing through the valley, and the flowing water is crystal clear. The valley is surrounded by steep cliffs, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow. Here, the western hills are covered with lush vegetation, but the east is bare. The canyon is often shrouded in mist.

Among them, 19 is a world natural heritage. Among them, Mount Liu Ke Cut, located in the middle of Mount Vostonnek, is the highest active volcano on the peninsula at an altitude of 4,750 meters.
trait

Death valley
Death Valley is located in the foothills of Kikhpinech volcano in the upper reaches of the Hot Fountain River, in the south of Croskey Nature Reserve. The canyon is 2000 meters long, wide 100 ~ 300 meters, and over 1000 meters above sea level. There are mountain streams flowing through the valley, and the flowing water is crystal clear. The valley is surrounded by steep cliffs, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow. Here, the western hills are covered with lush vegetation, but the east is bare. The canyon is often shrouded in mist. Here, whether it is a stout black bear or a clever vole, sometimes it will suddenly die, so it is called Death Valley. The reason is that there are sulfur-bearing rocks at the bottom of the valley, pure sulfur is exposed, and toxic underground hydrogen sulfide gas often overflows. When the west wind blew, the exit of the canyon was blocked, and the poisonous gas could not rise and dissipate, so the animals who came here to feed died of poisoning. Only when the strong east wind and north wind blow, the underground poisonous gas is diluted and dissipated, and it is safe to enter the valley at this time.
tide
The tide in Pinglunna Bay in the northwest is a wonder. Tides are often as high as 13 meters, which is higher than three floors.
Because of kamchatka peninsula's cold climate and its remote border, the word "Kamchatka" was as horrible as Siberian exiles in the Russian Empire.

Location: kamchatka peninsula is located in the cold and distant eastern suburb of Siberia, extending from the easternmost part of Siberia to the south, covered with snow and ice, with rolling mountains and isolated from the world. Administratively, it belongs to Russian kamchatka peninsula, where the Kamchatka Volcano Group is very famous. Its total area is about 33,000 square kilometers, and its altitude is between sea level and 362 1 m. Kamchatka Volcano Group is located in the Pacific volcanic belt. There are more than 300 active and extinct volcanoes here, including 28 active volcanoes such as Klyuchev, Awacha, Korjak and Bezmone, which is the most concentrated place in the world. These volcanoes are distributed in Buestrin Ski Nature Park, Kronokee National Nature Reserve, Narchevo Nature Park, South Kamchatka Nature Park and South Kamchatka National Nature Reserve.
Krichev volcano is 4750 meters above sea level, and it is the most active volcano with the highest altitude in the Asian continent. It will erupt violently every 25 ~ 30 years (another data: every 5 ~ 30 years), and the latest eruption was in 1972 ~ 1974.
The active volcano in Krunuki National Nature Reserve is extremely active and often erupts. The Krunuki National Nature Reserve includes the conical Krunuki volcano at an altitude of 3,528 meters, the Awacha volcano at an altitude of 274 1 meter, and the Colliac volcano at an altitude of 3,456 meters. It is the center of "the world's beautiful volcano". Volcanologists call the Kronucky volcano "the most beautiful volcano in the world". Compared with other areas, the volcanic activities in South Kamchatka Nature Park and South Kamchatka National Nature Reserve are more frequent, including the famous Mutnov volcano at an altitude of 2,323 meters and the Cligny Cen volcano at an altitude of 1.829 meters.
1907, the ash from the Shqiubielia volcano covered the whole of kamchatka peninsula and covered the sky over Petropavlovsk, which is 0/00 km away from/kloc. Together with 56 volcanoes in the Thousand Islands, these volcanoes constitute the most active volcanic belt in the Pacific fire circle, and the number of active volcanoes accounts for one tenth of the world's active volcanoes.
Earthquakes often occur on the peninsula, with 150 times in the past 200 years. 1952110/0 A major earthquake occurred in October, and the magnitude of Daric was 8.4, making it the second largest earthquake on record.
Volcanic characteristics: Kamchatka Volcano Group is characterized by high volcanic density and various eruption forms. The landform here is very complicated, including tortuous caves, overlapping strata, geysers, hot springs and fountains. Strange volcanic landforms and various springs are famous scenic spots here. There are 25 geysers in the geyser canyon near the Kronokee active volcano. The minerals contained in the geysers dye the surrounding rocks red, pink, blue, purple and brown. The largest geyser is called Kong Wei. The column of boiling water and steam is as high as 49 meters, and it is sprayed for about four minutes every three hours.
