Cuban Rondo
Cuban Rondo is a famous camp located in Pujon, a highland region of southern Malang, exactly in the top of mountain in that area. Because of its location, the weather is very cold and there are a lot of fog cover the area of mountain. The road is meander, up and down. This camp can be reached only about fifteen minutes from the downtown of Batu, the gateway of Malang Raya, and about three hours from Surabaya. Along the journey to Cuban Rondo, visitors (or usually called as campers) can enjoy the view of the villages from 1500 metres above sea level, especially when our vehicles uphill. Visitors can see the unique view of highland where the housing seem little from above. When visitors arrive in Cuban Rondo area, they would feel the very cold air so that visitors/campers should wear thick clothes (jacket, handgloves, etc.). When visitors enter the camping area, they would be welcomed by the row of high pine trees. The best time to camp here is on the afternoon when the view of the forest is very good with the effect of color’s gradation from the sunshine. Sunshine here is warm enough so that campers could enjoy the fresh weather. There are many people, both individually and collectively, set their own camps with campfire in the front of their camps. Usually, people who camp there collectively hold many events with their partners, friends, or families. One of the most popular is a ‘soldier night’ or ‘jurit malam’ in Indonesian where some campers have a night adventure by exploring the wide area of the forest. Campers who have the night adventure should search the clues to find the way they would go. This activity is very exciting and challenging because they can improve their instinct and compactness. Besides that, campers also can play together in their camp with exciting games or playing music together. But the main attraction is visiting the waterfall because it’s far enough from the camp, about 10 miles away. It’s absolutely tiring and challenging, but if campers do it together, it would be fun. In addition, before reach the waterfall campers should cross six rivers whose very cold and swift that require us to be careful. The Cuban Rondo waterfall is very cold but beautiful because of the scenery around it. The waterfall’s situation is still natural and clean thus everybody who visits it feel very comfortable and enjoy.

KARATON NGAYOGYAKARTA HADININGRAT
The Everlasting Beauty
*****
A few years ago, I visited one of the best tourism object in Indonesia, that was Karaton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat or well known as Keraton Yogya. Keraton Yogya located in the heart of Yogyakarta, just a few minutes from Malioboro. This historic building was built by Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono I since 1755 and used as the palace and also the house of Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono, the king of The Yogyakarta Sultanate.
Physically, Keraton Yogya consist of eight parts. They were Bangsal Pagelaran, Siti Hinggil Ler, Kamandhungan Ler, Sri Manganti, Kedhaton, Kamagangan, Kamandungan Kidul and Siti Hinggil Kidul.
In the past, Bangsal Pagelaran used by the soldiers to met Sultan, but now beside traditional ceremony, Bangsal Pagelaran also use to held tourism or religious events. In Bangsal Pagelaran, we can hear a great sound of Gamelan while seeing a diorama which show Javanese traditional cloth.
In the south of Bangsal Pagelaran, there was Siti Hinggil Ler. Siti Hinggil Ler usually use to held an official ceremony of Keraton. In December 14, 1949, Siti Hinggil Ler used to launched Gadjah Mada University. Siti Hinggil Ler has a great ornament. There are so many basrelief which the colours was mostly gold, green and red. We will smell a strong jasmine’s smell around when we are here.
Kamandhungan Ler is the next part of Keraton Yogya. In the past, it used by Sultan to give punishment (especially death penalty) to the criminals.
Next of Kamandhunagn Ler, there was Sri Manganti. In the past, it used as a guestroom for special delegation of the kingdom, but now it used to save the Royal Heirlooms such as Gamelan.
The next part is Kedhaton. This is the main part of Keraton Yogya. Kedhaton divided into three parts, they were Pelataran Kedhaton which is special for Sultan, Keputren for the wife and daughters, and Kesatriyan for the Sultan’s son.
After Kedhaton, there was Kamagangan. In he past, Kamagangan used to receive the employee candidate (Abdi Dalem Magang).
Next of Kamagangan, there was Kamandungan Kidul with the main parts is Bangsal Kamandhungan. Some people said that Bangsal Kamandhungan origin from Pandak Karang Nangka, near Sokawati where Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono I stayed during the war.
The last part is Siti Hinggil Kidul or well known as Sasana Hinggil Dwi Abad. In the past, Siti Hinggil Kidul used by Sultan for watching the soldiers preparing Grebeg ceremony, watching the combat between a man and a tiger (Rampogan), and also used by female soldiers (Langen Kusumo) to practice. Siti Hinggil Kidul also became the beginning of burial ceremony for Sultan who has passed away to Imogiri. Nowdays, Siti Hinggil Kidul use to held Wayang Kulit Show, exhibition, etc.
Finally, I conclude that Keraton Yogya is one of the best tourism object that I ever visited. Because, beside watching a great traditional Javanese architectur building, I also can learn more about the history especially history of Keraton Yogya itself. I can enrich my experiences and amusing myself here. So I suggest you to take Keraton Yogya onto your Holiday’s list. Because I’m sure you’ll never regret of it.
Let’s go to Yogya !
Let’s go on vacation in our own country, Indonesia !

To enter this place, you have to buy a ticket. Its cost is Rp 5.000,-. But, if you want to swim in the swimming pool you have to pay it more. About 45 minutes a trip from welcome gates and the waterfall. During the trip, you’ll find a steep road with many rocks and stairs. Also, there are monkeys and peanuts seller in the near small mosque. You can buy a peanuts to feed the monkeys. But, you have to be careful because monkeys can take everything that you bring. From the distances, you can hear a sound of waterfall. It looks very close, but it doesn’t. There are many springs that come out from anywhere. It can be easily retrieved and drink immediately. In the end of this trip is the waterfall. Its high is about 40 meters. It spout colors of the rainbow. You can take a photo and play with a cold water. So natural and fresh place. Don’t miss any spot that you can use.

Borobudur Temple
I have visited Borobudur temple three times. I never get bored of it. It’s a huge temple with beautiful scenery around of it. It’s not a suprise that it is one of the 7 wonders in the world. You can see the view of Magelang city when you reach the top of the temple. You can meet so many foreigners there, most of them are doing some research about the history of Borobudur but some are just enjoy the beauty of the temple. You have to hike the temple step to step on one huge ladder in the middle of it. it’s very crowded so you must be careful in order to not get slipped. When you enter the gate, you can see so many souvenir sellers sell stuff like keychain, replica of Borobudur, pens, car sticker, and so many others. After that you walk through the brick road with tidy and clean green grass beside it. It’s really cold in the morning, you must wear at least a jacket if you don’t want to catch cold. In the noon, it’s super duper hot, it feels like you’re boiled alive; the condition is really different.
You can see Borobudur comprises six square platforms topped by three circular platforms, and is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues. A main dome, located at the center of the top platform, is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues seated inside perforated stupa. People believe if you can touch the statue inside the stupa, your wish will become true. It’s really hard to reach inside it, you must have a really long hand to do it. I reached one of it and I was happy until I forgot to make a wish -_-.
It’s highly recommended for you who want to spend a holiday with some new experiences. It’s really educative and fun.

During my last weekend i have visited some place called “ngliyep beach”. Ngliyep beach has beautiful rocky beach at the southern part of Malang, where gigantic waves meet coral reef. When I was there, i saw that it has an island with a lush green tropical shore-forest and it is giving more enchantment to the beach. This beach is provided with some facilities such as: stalls, souvenir shop, inns, etc. Don’t worry if you didnt bring much money, cause the food in there was cheap. I bought a chiken noodle and it was 3.500 IDR.
Ngliyep beach has a very beautiful scenery. it was like a virgin beach, cause no one there and it still clear. The color of the sand was black, but not dirty. I slept on it cause I was tire. The weather is windy. So, it was cool to be there.
Ngliyep beach lies at Kedungsalam village, Donomulyo district, about 62 km a way to the south from Malang. Visit Ngliyep beach and enjoy its wonderful waves. The visitors can swimming, sun banthing, or fishing here, or just enjoy the beautiful scenery of it.
