Things To Do: Climb Mt Bromo.
  • Tip Rating:
  • Mount Bromo is part of the most impressive volcanic environment imagineable.
    Climbing the mountain in the dark of early morning allows you to see the sun rise over a landscape revealled as being like some sort of lunar scape fallen to earth. The photo below gives you some impression of this place. Perching on the side of this still steaming crater as the sun peaks over the horizon, is awesome. Go there!

    Directions: Mt Bromo is in eastern Java. It is easily reached from Yogyakarta, but you need to stay overnight in the vicinity.

    Things To Do: Go to Borobudur.
  • Tip Rating:
  • Borobudur is a temple complex north of Yogyakarta in Java. The temple is one of the largest Buddhist ones in the world. It is an interesting place to visit and very picturesque in the early morning.
    The journey to the top (up very steep steps), takes you past carvings painstakingly restored years ago. The stupas house statues in different poses. Some are open to allow you to see more closely the 'inhabitants'.

    Things To Do: Go to Prambanan.
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Prambanan temple complex is another amazing historical, archaeological site near Yogyakarta. Unfortunately, I can't remember much about it now... I visited in 1989 when I was 17. There are figures in the stone temple structures you can see here. I think this is an acient hindu temple, whereas Borobudur was buddhist.

     Well-written (as usual) tips and observations especially as it includes fond memories of your '89 high school trip. I see why Indonesia is very special to you. And you know the language too!
