Eventually, in 2012, the Inside the Volcano tour was created. The tour begins with a 40 to 50 minute hike to the volcano's crater. From there, you take a lift down 198 meters into the heart of Thrihnukagigur. Your descent takes about six minutes. As you go down, you can admire the rock walls.
The symphony of color will amaze you - reds, blues, yellows, violets and oranges. They almost don't look real. Take as many pictures as you like to try to capture the beauty inside the volcano.
At the bottom, you can walk around the uneven rocks while admiring the vastness of this secret world. It's like taking a peek behind the curtain of a play. A trip inside the Thrihnukagigur volcano is an experience like no other.

Info Cloud
Hello and welcome to Info Cloud. It's time to raise the curtain on another episode.
That's an interesting way to start. When we raise the curtain on something, we get it started, like the beginning of a play or a performance.
Exactly right! When an audience is sitting in a theater, raising the curtain on the stage, it is a signal that the play is about to begin.
However, we can use this expression to mean something different. Raising the curtain on something,
can be also reveal that something is behind the curtain.
So, if we raise the curtain on our new project, we reveal it with the public.
The opposite of the saying is to bring down the curtain on something. Just like at the end of a play.
It's a way to say that the final end of something is occurring, so Joe is to say today we're going to bring down the curtain on Info Cloud.
Then, I would be saying that we are bring you the last episode. Thank, goodness, that is not the case.
