Sunrise at Kelimutu Crater Lake in Flores

Kelimutu (pronounced [kəliˈmutu]) is a volcano, close to the small town of Moni in central Flores island in Indonesia. It is around 50 km (31 mi) to the east of Ende, Indonesia, the capital of Ende regency in East Nusa Tenggara province. It has three volcanic crater lakes that differ in color.

There are three lakes on the mountain sharing the same name, Kelimutu, meaning 'the boiling lake'. Each has its own colors and a local name. But all are believed to be the resting place of departed souls. Kelimutu lakes are unpredictable as to when and what color they will change into.

Kelimutu is an active volcano near Moni in central Flores in Indonesia. At the top of Mount Kelimutu, there are three crater lakes that have different colors.
