Mysterious Geyser in Japan Has Been Gushing Out Water for Two Weeks
A mysterious geyser that erupted in the middle of a forest on the
Japanese island of Hokkaido has been shooting up columns of water up
to 40-meters-high for the past couple of weeks.
Every year, on August 9, the small Japanese town of Oshamambe holds an
annual summer festival complete with a traditional procession at the
local Shinto shrine. However, this year's festival has been
overshadowed by an unusual occurrence a day before the event, when a
huge geyser erupted in the middle of the shrine grounds' forest.
Locals woke up to a steady roar, a column of water shooting up above
the tree canopy, and the unmistakable smell of sulfur in the air. The mysterious geyser has been shooting up water for the past couple of
weeks and is showing no signs of slowing down.
