Turkmenistan wants to close its 'Gateway to Hell'

I just read in the BBC that though it's become one of this country's top visitor attractions, its president has ordered that the perpetually firey gas-drilling Darvaza crater in the Karakorum Desert be finally extinguished for environmental and health reasons, as well as part of an effort to increase gas exports. It's been tried before - can they pull it off this time? Read the article here.

South Africa must be the ultimate destination for Adventure Tourism! Coupled with Responsible Tourism Practises you can travel here and enjoy a range of activities while contributing to the local & social upliftment! When visiting South Africa, whether you are young or old, there's an adventure option within your fitness range that will add a lot of fun to your stay in South Africa. There are plenty of activities to choose from and the choice is growing all the time. The daring, ultra-fit thrill-seekers opt for hair raising stunts such as bungee jumping, riding the rapids, diving with great white sharks,(www.whitesharkprojects.co.za) and leaping from the skies with parachutes strapped to their backs. Hikers follow adventure trails, climbers scale the mountain peaks, and anglers stand thigh-high in streams waiting for trout to snatch the fly.
