11 Places to Visit at Indonesia, Let's Go !!
en.satupiston.com - Indonesia is
a tropical country located in Southeast Asia. For those of you who want to
visit Indonesia and are confused about where to go, here we discuss the best
tourist attractions while in Indonesia.
Indonesia is
one of the world's tourist destinations. Although Indonesia is less well known
in the world, but there are several places in Indonesia that are widely known
to the world.
Ironically,
many are familiar with tourist destinations in Indonesia, but do not know that
these tourist destinations are part of Indonesia.
But that's
okay, we're not going to argue about that, we're just going to talk about the
best places to visit when we're in Indonesia.
1. Jakarta

Jakarta
became the capital city of Indonesia, at least until now before the Indonesian
capital moved.
As the
center of the nation's capital city, Jakarta is one of the most developed
cities in Indonesia. Of course, if we visit Indonesia, it won't feel good if we
don't visit Jakarta.
By the way,
Jakarta is very congested, so maybe driving on the streets of Jakarta is not a
good idea.
2. Bandung
Bandung is
also known as the city of "Paris van Java". Bandung is located not so
far from Jakarta. It only takes about 4 hours by bus from Jakarta.
Bandung is a
tourist destination that will certainly give us a different experience. Bandung
is also one of the largest cities in Indonesia, and Bandung is also famous for
its frequent traffic jams.
3. Bali

Who doesn't
know Bali? The island of Bali offers beautiful beaches with sea waves that are
loved by surfers.
Bali is so
famous that many people think that Bali is a country and not part of Indonesia.
The majority
of religions in Bali are Hindu and Buddhist, so if we go to Bali, we will feel
the nuances of Hinduism and Buddhism at the same time.
4. Lombok

Lombok is
close to Bali but on a different island. Bali and Lombok are part of an
archipelago located in the middle of the southern part of Indonesia.
Unlike Bali,
where the majority of the population is Hindu and Buddhist, in Lombok the
majority of the population is Muslim.
Lombok also
offers exotic destinations such as beaches and blue seas with waves that
surfers love.
Even later,
there will be a Mandalika International Circuit which will hold MotoGP and WSBK
racing events, interesting isn't it?
5. Komodo Island

We shifted
to the east of the island of Lombok. Yes, we will go to Komodo Island National
Park. Here we tour and see ancient animals that are thought to be dinosaurs
that are still left in the world today.
For your
information, for women who are "bloody", it is advisable not to come
directly to see Komodo. Because, Komodo likes the fishy smell and it is feared
that it will hurt us.
6. Raja Ampat Islands

Raja Ampat
offers beautiful and clear sea. In addition, this archipelago offers beautiful
scenery and is different from the others.
The Raja
Ampat Islands are in the Papua region, precisely on the easternmost island of
Indonesia. Many world-class tourists travel to Raja Ampat.
One of the
reasons, of course, is because Raja Ampat offers beautiful sea views. But some
time ago, an incident occurred, namely a foreign cruise ship that damaged coral
reefs in the shallow seas of Raja Ampat.
This is of
course very disappointing and has drawn criticism from the world public.
7. Lake Toba

Lake Toba is
one of the largest lakes in the world and also one of the deepest lakes in the
world. Lake Toba is located in North Sumatra. Lake Toba has become global and
has become one of the favorite vacation spots for foreign tourists.
Lake Toba
has an area of 1,145 km and a depth of 450 meters. In the middle of Lake Toba
there is Samosir Island which is almost as big as Singapore.
8. Wakatobi

Wakatobi is
a national park in Southeast Sulawesi. Wakatobi offers beautiful underwater
scenery.
Where there
are as many as 112 coral reefs located in a place with an area of 13,900
Km2. Don't forget, here there are beautiful fish that we can meet by diving.
9. Mount Bromo

In East
Java, there is one of the famous active volcanoes, namely Mount Bromo. With a
vast expanse of desert, Mount Bromo is an attraction for travelers who like
volcanic views.
10. Borobudur Temple
This temple
is located on the border of Central Java and Yogyakarta. However, Borobudur
Temple seems to make more sense if it enters the Central Java region.
We've been
to Borobudur Temple once, it's quite hot here but has a beautiful view,
especially when we climb to the top of the temple.
Many
Europeans, Australians, Japanese and Americans visit this shrine every year.
This temple has an area of 123 x 123 meters and has a history that is closely
related to Buddhism.
11. Tana Toraja
If we like
tourist attractions that are a little horror, then don't forget Tana Toraja in
South Sulawesi.
We are a
little scared to write this, but if you are curious, you can search more
specifically about “tomb tourism destinations in Tana Toraja”.
Actually,
there are still many tourist destinations in Indonesia. But for now, let's end
this article.
