Where to go in Java

Gunung Bromo

Gunung Bromo, an active volcano set among the bubbling peaks of the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, is another of Indonesia's most breathtaking sights.

Yogyakarta

Regarded by many as the cultural capital of Java, Yogyakarta, or Yogya as it's often known, makes an ideal base from which to explore the nearby sites of Borobudur and Prambanan.

Borobudur

The single largest Buddhist structure ever built, Borobudur is considered by many to be one of the great wonders of the world.

Ijen Plateau

The Ijen Plateau in north-eastern Java is a vast volcanic region dominated by the three cones of Ijen, Merapi and Raung.
