JOJO’s wonderful trip.

Three million years ago, the volcanoes on the bottom of the Indian Ocean erupted on a large scale. The powerful energy allowed the area where Reunion was located to rise to the sea and climb to a height of more than 3,000 meters. The island of Reunion was born. Today, Reunion Island is still an active volcanic island. After entering the 21st century, from 2001 until 2018, there were records of eruptions almost every year. However, the temper of the Reunion volcano is not as violent as the Icelandic volcano or the Indonesian volcano. Although the number of eruptions is high, it can be gentle every time. Its eruption belongs to the kind of shallow, low-pitched peace and explosion, without earthquakes and volcanic ash, and rarely causes casualties. Because the eruption of magma flowing from each eruption is fixed from northwest to southeast, it is sticky and slow in flow rate, so it is called sentimental stream magma. When the hot magma flows down from the height of more than 2,000 meters, the temperature is not as awesome as it was before. Therefore, many locals and tourists will agree to go to the scene to feel the energy of the volcano within a few hours after the eruption. The people standing on the edge of the magma ditch cheered excitedly and picked up the camera to remember. Some schools will take the opportunity to organize students to observe and study volcanic eruptions and learn geography in the field. Therefore, the Furles volcano in Reunion became the most suitable volcano for children in the world.
