Waimangu Volcanic Rift Valley in New Zealand is a geologically active area formed by the volcanic eruption of Mount Tarawera on June 10, 1886. This event created a unique landscape featuring geothermal lakes, hot springs, and vividly colored terraces. The valley is home to the Frying Pan Lake, one of the world's largest hot water springs, and the Inferno Crater, known for its striking blue water and periodic geyser-like activity.
