Valley of Geysers
Valley of Geysers — geothermal reserve on the Kamchatka peninsula in a valley of the river Gejzernoj running into the Kronotsky gulf of Pacific ocean, a part of Kronotsky state biospheric reserve.
Since 1991 the Valley of geysers is opened for visitings by tourists. Last year in the Valley the landslip in volume about 5 million cubic meter has descended.
