Bromo National Park
Mainstream Destination? Another Postcard View?
C’mon mate! It’s either you need to dig up more about Bromo or you simply need to dig up more ;)
In this article, you will find out how pretty Bromo is ~
It really does unreal and I truly mean it! Bromo is not just a bunch of hills and volcanoes, but it consists of several nature beauties - packed compactly within 1 destination. Bromo will serve you right whether you want to witness a god’s masterpiece as represented as its exceptional scenery, or you just simply expect for a lovely relaxation day on a green highland.
If you’re a kind of avid nature’s beauty enthusiast - or a landscapes photographer like me - and happened to land on Java, I’d insist to suggest you for having 1 - 2 days visit in Bromo.
Personally, I think it is one of the best view that you can afford on this earth.
Another postcard view? NO! There are various ways to explore your own perspective about Bromo so you can always make your signature moment here.
Below are just a few references of how rich Bromo is, and believe me, the choices are unlimited.
Indonesia’s Best Signature Moment
By the time you put ‘bromo’ on google, you will easily notice for its unique scenery.
This is perhaps one of the reason why we would like to visit Bromo in the first place. It is truly amazing and I can say that it is one of the Indonesia’s best signature.
Just don’t be afraid if you worry that you will shoot another postcard captures.
Keep on following me in order to get the most out of it.

All the local tour providers, tourists, or simply anyone, will aim themselves to reach Penanjakan 1 to get ‘the best view’ of Bromo.
It could be right since Penanjakan 1 is the highest land that you can afford for viewing that goddamn scenery. But, it also will turn out bad when there are tons of visitors especially during the weekend or holiday.
That is damn frustrating when the only thing you can see is just another visitors’ back - or - if you are persisted enough to get there early before others - you will end up to shoot another postcard view of Bromo with an exact branches / trees location on your foreground.
Penanjakan 1 is simply too mainstream.
So, how about visiting Penanjakan 2?
It is perhaps not the highest one, but still the view is about similar.
This place also can be afforded much cheaper as you don’t need to get either a jeep or pay the entrance ticket as this spot is located on the other way around from Penanjakan 1.
Take a small hike higher to get your own personalised spot there without getting bothered by excessive tourists.
