    Being the largest volcanic region in the province, Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park covers a massive area of 800 square km in the center of East Java. Visitors who have an eager interest in volcanic activities must come to the park and witness the smoke of ashes coming from Mount Semeru, an active volcano that rises 3,676 meters above sea level.

    ​Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park is the only conservation area in Indonesia that has a 10 km sea of sand called Tengger, from which four new volcanic cones have emerged. Those volcanic cones are Mount Batok (2,470 m), Mount Kursi (2,581 m), Mount Watangan (2,661 m), and Mount Widodaren (2,650 m).

    However, Mount Bromo is still the only one that is active. Temperatures at the top of Mount Bromo range about 5-18 degrees Celsius. Heading south of the park is a rolling upland plateau divided by valleys and decorated with several scenic lakes reaching to the foot of Mount Semeru.

    Tengger sand sea with its 5.250 hectares area will make a perfect place to walk around or ride a horse and feel like a wild west cowboy. You can also hike to the top of Mount Bromo or, if you feel challenged enough, to the summit of Mount Semeru, which is the highest mountain in the land of Java. For other options, you can watch the beautiful sunrise from Ranu Kumbolo, where the sun will slowly emerge from the valley between the two hills something just like a fairytale. You can also visit the nearby waterfalls such as Madakaripura, Coban Sewu, Coban Pelangi, and Coban Jahe waterfalls.;

    Most of Tengger natives embrace Hindu teachings as their religion. Therefore, there are a number of Hindu temples around Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. You can visit Kidal Temple, Luhur Poten Temple, Mandara Giri Semeru Agung Temple, and Jago Temple to marvel at the historical magnificence.

    Besides all the natural wonders, Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park also has its own cultural charm. Ngadas, a serene village up on the slopes of Mt. Bromo, will be a fun thing to not be missed. Situated in the highlands only 6,5 KM away from the majestic Mt. Bromo, the average temperature is around 0 - 25 degrees Celsius, with cool to relatively cold refreshing air. The villagers, which mainly consist of Tengger natives, still practice the ancient rituals and ceremonies that are believed to bring order, good fortune, and prosperity.

    great place to hanging out with freinds, family or partner,

    there were benches available to sit and relax,
    a playground for children to play,
    pigeons everywhere,

    and it is close to Jami' mosque, so for muslim visitors you don't have to worry about coming at any time.

    Rainbow Village in Malang is a vibrant kaleidoscope of hues that promises a brief but delightful escape into a world of color. Each corner of this quaint village is adorned with whimsical murals, transforming ordinary walls into canvases of artistry.

    While the village itself may be small, the impact of its vivid colors is immense. Walking through its narrow streets feels like stepping into a cheerful dreamscape, where every turn reveals a new burst of color and creativity.

    Although the visit may be brief, the memories made amidst the rainbow-hued buildings will linger long after leaving. Rainbow Village is a testament to the transformative power of art and a must-see destination for anyone seeking a splash of joy and inspiration in Malang.

    I was crazy enough to ride an old Vespa here. The road is about 20-25 minutes of really rough up and down off roading.
    Being so remote there eat only one couple here when I visited.
    A must visit is Warung Mbak Wiji who serves the most incredible super fresh seafood and vegetables with superb flavours and excellent friendly service too.

    One of the popular natural tourism objects in Malang for more than 2 decades. From the highway it is quite far, but can be reached by private vehicle. From the parking lot to the location of the waterfall, it is quite close, with complete facilities around it, starting from vehicle parking, food stalls, and toilets. It is advisable for visitors not to give food to the monkeys, in order to avoid attacks
