Merapi Volcano located in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. It is one of the most popular mountain in Indonesia. It is among the most active volcano in the world. To go here we need to hire a jeep. The route is difficult and not an easy journey. The jeep will pass through river, rock, and hill. Please hang on tight to the seat as it is so bumpy. The jeep will stop at the mini museum. It is actually a village where everyone in it die due to volcano eruption. The clock stop at 0:05 hour when the lava hits the village. It is an eye opener and historic tour. I leave this place with a tears thinking about all the victim that unable to escape.

Went on a 4-day, 3-night trip to Jogja, a historical city rich in Hindu cultural heritage with many ancient temples and sites to explore. It was a relaxing and enjoyable trip overall. However, be sure to bring sunglasses and sunscreen — the sun can be intense.
