This volcano is famous for its sulfur mine where local miners have to carry the sulfur in this kind of baskets.

Hi @arkalus when I saw your picture, I remember the same scene here in the Philippines and that is Mt. Taal where there is a lake sorrounding the mountain.

Nice! I just released my blog about the sulfur miners. Truly a humbling experience.
