Yassur volcano on Tanna island, active
and still doing a lot of damage when it erupts from time to time. The volcano
is considered the most accessible in the world, when it is on a low level of
activity you can stay on the crater rim and watch the firework display. |

Drinking kava – the extract from the root

Cargo cult or “John Frum” cult– a local
religion which started during WW II when somebody made a prophecy that richness
will come. This happened quite soon when the American Army landed on the
island bringing food and supplies. They left after sometime and the local
people are still waiting for them to return bringing the promised richness.
The cult followers gather every Friday, and after some kava drinking they
sing and dance till late in the night. |
