A Different Side of Indonesia

Most people are familiar with the images of Bali when it comes to Indonesia, however the large island of Java should not be overlooked.

Home to the bustling capital, Jakarta, Java has so much to offer in terms of scenery, culture and adventure. Discover extravagant shopping malls, excellent restaurants or thriving nightlife; explore volcanic landscapes, visit captivating temples, watch the charming Ramayana Ballet, or bike through rice paddies.  Java is not only a gateway to other islands, but a destination worth visiting.

Java's Top 3 Hand-picked Experiences by Luxeco

1. Marvel at  the spectacular sunrise over Mount Bromo

Some things are worth waking up early for. Head to viewpoint and wrap up warm for the uphill climb to watch the inspiring sunrise over Mount Bromo. Warm-up with a cup of delicious Indonesian coffee and wait for the rising sun to light up the volcanic vistas.  Afterward, head to Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park and admire the otherworldly ash landscape, or climb an active volcano if you are brave enough!

Best For: Nature, Adventure, Photography

2. Immerse yourself in Charming Yogyakarta

Yogyakarta is an artsy city, where you can join friendly locals for a batik painting workshop, or admire the intricate art of puppet-making. Here, even the graffiti is artistic and you can spend hours walking around the city admiring impressive spray-painted murals. In the evening, head to Prambanan to watch a beautiful performance of the Ramayana Ballet.

Best For: Culture, photography, art

3. Be impressed by ancient Prambanan and Borobodur temple complex

You can cycle through rural roads from Yogyakarta to Prambanan temple, a World-Heritage listed site comprising the remains of 244 temples. Watch the sun set peacefully from the top of nearby Borobodur, the world’s largest Buddhist temple. A truly spiritual experience.
