Surabaya, Indonesia is not only a must-visit place for volcano tours, but also worth exploring!

Arrived in Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia yesterday, and started a new journey~ Many people use Surabaya as a transit station to Mount Bromo and Mount Semeru. In fact, Surabaya itself is also worth visiting. Surabaya is the capital of East Java Province and the second largest city in Indonesia. If you come here~ these classic attractions are worth visiting! Cheng Ho Mosque in Surabaya is the world's first mosque named after Cheng Ho. It is located at No. 2 Shading Street. It is a five-story building with a pagoda-style architectural style and strong Chinese cultural elements. For local Muslim believers, Cheng Ho Mosque has irreplaceable spiritual value. Surabaya Independence Monument is more than 40 meters high and is in the shape of an inverted nail. There is a museum inside for tourists to visit. At the same time, the monument is also a landmark building in Surabaya and is an excellent material for shooting. Photography enthusiasts must not miss it. Surabaya Submarine Memorial was formerly a submarine. This submarine began service in 1962 and was retired and converted into the current memorial for tourists to visit in 1990~ Tourists can learn about Surabaya's past history in this submarine memorial and appreciate the bravery of the people of this city in resisting colonial rule. Surabaya Zoo was established in 1912 and is very famous in Surabaya. It attracts millions of tourists every year. The most distinctive place of Surabaya Zoo is that all the animals here come from Southeast Asia. When you are in it, you will feel a strong Southeast Asian style. Four Points by Sheraton Surabaya and The Westin Surabaya are the only compound hotels in Surabaya. The two hotels are located in the same building~ The lobbies of the two hotels are directly connected to Pakuwon Mall, the largest shopping center in Indonesia, which is very convenient for shopping and travel! We booked two nights each at Westin and Four Points by Sheraton~ The ambassador members were all upgraded to suites, the room view and hotel facilities, swimming pool, restaurant, SPA and bar are very good, highly recommended!
