Taman Gandrung Terakota Wonderful Indonesia

This park, which contains hundreds of statues of passionate dancers, is special because it was built on terraced rice fields at the foot of Mount Ijen, to be precise, the Jiwa Jawa Ijen Resort area, Licin District, Banyuwangi. This is a site to care for and treat Gandrung Dance as one of Banyuwangi's cultural identities.The Terracotta Loving Garden is inspired by the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in China which was built during the Emperor Qin Shi Huang (259-210 BC).Gandrung Terracotta Park not only presents rows of statues of gandrung dancers. Entering this area, visitors are shown green hills and expanses of rice fields, farmers plowing the fields, coffee plantation#themepark , durian trees, various types of bamboo, and local endemic plants. In the middle of the expanse is found an open amphitheater for scheduled art performances and jazz music events.#

Here is a nanny-level guide to the itinerary of the Indonesian Ijen Volcano: 🌋Itinerary 1️⃣0:00 Depart from the hotel🏨, the journey is far, please go to bed early the night before💤. 2️⃣2:00 Arrive at the foot of the mountain🌋, receive the gas mask😷 and goggles🥽 distributed by the guide, organize your backpack🎒, and go lightly. (On the way up the mountain, you can choose to ride the local human-powered cart "Lamborghini" at any time, the one-way price is about 500💰, of course, the closer to the end, the cheaper.) 3️⃣Around 4:30 to reach the top, the time varies from person to person. 🌋Check-in points 1️⃣Tree rights: Walk inside the mountain top⛰️ to see tree branches of different sizes, those who are queuing are basically excellent 📷positions 2️⃣Small platform: The small platform under the tree rights, this place is very photogenic, you can take pictures of the volcano🌋 and sulfuric acid lake 3️⃣Right side of the summit: Here you can see the sea of clouds☁️ and the mountain top⛰️ 💼Recommended items to bring: Gas mask😷, goggles👓, wet wipes🧻, tissues, Snickers, drinking water ❗️ If you want to go down to the volcanic lake to see the blue fire, it is best to choose a protective mask with eye mask, because sulfur is very irritating to the eyes.

Ijen Resort and Villas is a materialization of a dream. A long time dream which stayed in mind during some decades.    The First Inspiration The story of Ijen Crater was heard for the first time from an old uncle who happened to be sent there joining forced workersīó by the japanese army in the second world war period. It was in his childhood time.  The Solitary Crater, it is so called because of its position, alone out of reach and out of nowhere. It sounded rather intriguing. The old uncle said that it took the whole day walk to cross through the dark jungle, to arrive in a vast open plain area where they had to spend the night before hiking up the mountain on the next day. And the crater was the only interest because it spit out large quantity of sulfur.  #beautifulsunsets#nationalpark#beautifulhotel

Indonesia - mount Ijen

I finally got the chance to visit this active volcano and believe it or not it’s one of the WORLD’s MUST-SEE VOLCANOES because apparently this Ijen Volcano Crater has the world’s largest acidic volcanic crater lake which, the water is actually in UNIQUE turquoise color! Imagine how cool is that! THIS TIME, We are here for the sole purpose of visiting this crater because this turquoise colored-lake within the crater is quite famous for it’s color and the local miners normally call it the Kawah Ijen. This crater is located right on top of the Mount Ijen where you have to hike 3km from the bottom starting all the way up taking the one way narrow and steep trail to reach the top. For a novice like me i would say this is quite challenging to walk and climb in the dark with a torchlight that provides barely enough visibility to see what’s coming your way in a few meters. While hiking and climbing up you can see a lot of old sulfur miners ( some barefooted ) marathon-ing using the same trail carrying a basket each as if racing with each other to reach the top to dig minerals, sulfurs or whatsoever they have to dig to sell it for money, leaving us behind staggering and struggling to make each step forward in reaching the same point of mountain. This is too exhausting but worth the effort when you can start smelling something like the rotting eggs and food as you climb higher because it means that you’re about to reach your destination, the GREEN LAKE! #urbanexplorer #travelinspiration#unforgettableexperiences#nyedestinations#naturalwonders

Ijen crater is located in Banyuwangi - Indonesia, Ijen crater is famous for the volcano crater and also the blue fire. I would recommend you to start climbing at 1am to see the beautiful blue fire.

Glamping @ Banyuwangi

Trip to Indonesia has always been interesting. This time me and my friends went to Banyuwangi. The glamping concept in the midst of river, surrounded by greens make you feel very close with nature. It's in very secluded area, and only around 50 rooms available here. To reach here, you must travel to Jakarta first and change to domestic flight towards Banyuwangi. It take around 45 minutes drive from airport to the resort. There's airport transfer available from resort, otherwise you may rent car or any tour package with or without tour guide. Do note that we need to use rupiah in Banyuwangi so make sure you have enough! #travel #banyuwangi #tourism #indonesia #jelajahhotel #wonderfulindonesia #glamping
