Will the fire in Chongqing really burn for 60 years?

It's true.

According to local people, this "natural gas stove" is actually a natural gas well. At that time, when the mining team was digging, it was accidentally dug out.

Because the mining value of this area was too small after excavation, the builders buried it back. However, because it is a re-landfill, it is inevitable that a small amount of natural gas will emerge from the place where the landfill is not good, so the ground fire is produced and becomes a great spectacle in the village.

Because the amount of natural gas discharged is small, it will not affect the environment. Slowly, people in the village have become accustomed to the existence of underground fire, and even built the village into an "underground fire village", attracting more tourists to watch it here.
