'Dieng Volcanic Complex' is on the Dieng Plateau in the Central Java, Indonesia, as a complex of volcanoes. The volcanic complex consists of two or more of stratovolcanoes, more than 20 small craters and Pleistocene-to-Holocene age volcanic cones. It covers over 6 × 14 km area. The Prahu stratovolcano was truncated by a large Pleistocene caldera and then filled by parasitic cones, lava domes and craters which some of them are turned into lakes. Toxic vocanic gas has been known to caused fatalities and is a hazard at several craters. The area is also a major geothermal project.
