Tangkuban Perahu is a volcano with three craters into which areas tourists can walk through. These three craters are: Kawah Ratu ("Queen Crater"), Kawah Domas ("Domas Crater"), and Kawah Upas ("Upas Crater"). On the mountain's northern flank is an area called Death Valley, so named for its frequent accumulation of poisonous gases. At the foot of Mt. Tangkuban Perahu we see the Ciater tea plantation covering the rolling hills.
