Owakudani 大涌谷 Volcanic Black Egg


 The video above was taken at Ōwakudani 大涌谷 also known as "Great Boiling Valley" in Hakone, Japan. This is an active volcanic valley with hot springs and black eggs. The music in this video is played and composed by me. I tried to make a cute egg style melody ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ


Owakudani 大涌谷 Hello Kitty in Volcanic Black Egg


Similar with Hello Kitty the egg shell is black, the inside is just like any normal hard boiled egg in white with a yellow egg yolk. "" =.=


This is where the black eggs are made. Boiled in hot spring water the iron (II) sulfide makes the egg shell turns black.


Black eggs in cable car too .. kidding ~~\(^o^) I took a cable car to reach Owakudani..It's funny to see black eggs sliding down the hill in cages.



Hot sulphuric water flowing down the volcanic hot spring stream


 Clouds of Sulphuric gases


I was curious to take a look at the green smelly patches on the ground zoomed in abit and ewww...
