DANAU KAOLIN
Kaolin Lake in Belitung is not a natural lake. Initially this was a kaolin mining. After stopping mining activities, land that has been dredged and filled with rain water became a beautiful artificial lake. The blue color of the lake water is very bright combined with the blue sky. Unlike the White crater that has a sulfur smell, Lake Kaolin has no smell of sulfur. Kaolin lake is worth to visit especially for pre-wedding photo shooting.
