Sightseeing

Indonesia is a land of contrasts, a land where the spiritual manifests itself through diverse cultures, magnificent temples, and artwork, while Mother Nature holds untold treasures in her dramatic seascapes, landscapes, flourishing wildlife, and active volcanoes.
What famous tourist attraction is found in Indonesia?

What is the most popular spot in Indonesia?
Bali
Bali has always been the favourite tourist destination in Indonesia for a long time ago. Also known as the Island of the Gods, its enchanting tropical vibe will immediately welcome you as soon as you step on the island.
Borobudur
This ancient temple is one of the most famous and culturally significant landmarks in Indonesia. Borobudur was built in the 8th century and constructed in the shape of a traditional Buddhist mandala. It is one of the top UNESCO World Heritage sites and is considered one of the greatest Buddhist sites in the world. The massive temple was forgotten for centuries when it is believed that much of the population moved to eastern Java due to volcanic eruptions. But it was rediscovered in the 1800s and, today is one of the main draws in Java.
Orangutans of Borneo
No trip to Indonesia would be complete without seeing some orangutans, and Borneo is a great place to visit these beautiful and endangered creatures. Though orangutans still live in the wild, several sanctuaries rescue and protect orangutans as land development infringes on their natural habitat. Tanjung Puting National Park in Kalimantan, the Indonesian-owned part of Borneo, is home to one of the largest orangutan populations in the world, as well as other primates, birds, and reptiles.
Gili Islands
The Gili Islands are a major draw in Lombok, which has risen in popularity among backpackers and tourists over the years. These picturesque islands offer beaches that rival those of Bali in their beauty, as well as opportunities for diving and even snorkelling at a turtle sanctuary. If you're looking for more turtle action, you can check out a turtle hatchery where hundreds of these creatures are born each year.
Mount Bromo
Indonesia sits on the Ring of Fire, an area with some of the most active volcanoes in the world. Many of the country's volcanoes, such as Mount Merapi, are famous for their violent eruptions and their stunning, but dangerous beauty. Mount Bromo is among the best known, thanks largely to its incredible views, particularly when seen standing over the caldera at sunrise. Bromo's peak was blown off in an eruption, and you can still see white smoke spewing from the mountain.
Ubud, Bali
The royal village of Ubud has long been recognized as Bali’s artistic and cultural hub. It is home to a small treasure trove of museums and galleries, a traditional market and a royal palace, while in the neighbouring villages, you can watch the island’s most accomplished painters, stonemasons, woodcarvers, mask makers and silversmiths at work.
