Réunion: a French volcanic paradise in the Indian Ocean
Réunion, an overseas department and region of France, is located in the southwestern part of the Indian Ocean, about 700 kilometers east of Madagascar and 200 kilometers southeast of Mauritius. One of the most remote external regions of the European Union, it is known for its spectacular volcanic landscapes and unique ecosystems, and is home to Reunion National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The island's terrain is predominantly mountainous, with the highest point at 3,069 meters above sea level, the active volcano Furness, which erupts frequently, creating natural wonders such as the "Hell's Castle" ravine and waterfalls. The area is rich in biodiversity, with tropical rainforests, coral reefs and coastal scenery, and is a destination for hiking and diving enthusiasts. The local culture is a mix of French, African, Indian and Malagasy elements, with Creole and French spoken, and an economy based on tourism, vanilla farming and sugar production.
