18. Danakil Desert, Eritrea
Some time ago you could watch the program about the Danakil Depression which was broadcasted by National Geographic. It was mentioned that this place is one of the most violent on our planet. This place is located within the extremely hot desert. You will be amazed with the great number of volcanoes which can be seen here. The riskiness of your visit to this country is not just about the heat of the desert. There is something more hazardous for you. The place is situated in the border lands of Ethiopia and Eritrea. Number of cruel military actions can be observed between these two countries. The governments of the US and UK try hard to prevent their citizens from travelling to Eritrea. The only place which is quite safe for your life in this country is its capital Asmara. But if you have a desire to go outside it, you will need a special permission.
