Also, somehow you will feel that the crater never stops breathing.

It will not stop at the moment. You can also feel how bad the eruption is in a bunker. Mount Merapi was one of the most active mountain in the world. That means the eruption can come at any seconds. That is why, there are many bunkers that are built as the shelter when the eruption comes in a sudden. When the eruption came in 2006 and 2010, the bunker helped a lot. Even the eruption destroyed Geger Boy (a hill in the southern area of Mount Merapi), the people could still get a good place to get a shelter.

MY-REMAINING-TREASURES MUSEUM

When the eruption came, there were some people who left their materials right at their place. There are remaning treasure that are left melted by the lava of the great Mount Merapi. Those treasures are then collected and displayed in one place. And that will be your first stop. It is at a mini museum called as my remaining treasure museum. The location is at Petung village, Kepuharjo, Cangkringan, Sleman. A new shape of potteries that were already eaten by the volcanic material from the crater, a displaced motorcycle that were already melted and out of shape, a collection of cattle that were giving up their flesh and skins to be skeleton, and a set of photos that were portrayed before, during, and after the eruption came. Those are just so extremely touching.

THE ROCK OF ALIEN

A red gallant lava coming through from the highest land of Mount Merapi channeled abruptly to the residents land. Ate everything. Destroyed many things. Even, rocks loose its magnificent structures. It changed into a face without a shape. It is then called as Alien’s head. That is your next stop. Such a huge rock will be perfect spot to remind you how powerful the Mount Merapi is.

THE BUNKER

The last stop is at the bunker. Here is when you will extremely be touched by the eruption stories. One of the stories is about the suffocation. At the last eruption, this bunker was still active. it was the place for so many people to get a shelter. But, something happened. At that time, when the eruption came haphazardly, two of many people were suffocated by some kind of fumes. It was because the bunker was having some leakage. Then, the bunker is never going to be used again until any further repariement is done. In this area, you can get such a scenic images between the shabby bunker and the magnificent mountain. It is just beautiful.
