The following places of our natural wonder are also internationally recognised

1. Mount Jaya Wijaya in Papua
2. Lake Toba in South Sumatera
3. Bunaken underwater park in North Sulawesi
4. Mount Krakatau in Banten
5. Banda Islands underwater park in Maluku
6. Komodo Islands in Nusa Tenggara
7. Multi-Colored volcanic lakes in Nusa Tenggara

I did visit all the places above and believe me that nothing could compare our unique and iconic places above. Each has its own special uniqueness.

IMO, despite its picturesque and famous location in Bali, Uluwatu is not really that unique.... though its still wonderful and magic!:) :ohno:
That's because you can easily find places like that almost similar and identical sceneries along Java's southern coastline (Pantai Laut selatan Pulau Jawa)
... try to explore the beaches from Ujung Kulon, Pelabuhan ratu, Pangandaran, Jogja's coastlines, Pacitan, up to Banyuwangi.... :)

my top priority was Bromo since I think would be the best mountains

July 10th, 2007, 08:13 AM
Bunaken .... ?


Bunaken becomes every divers favorite since the infrastructure to reach the place has been good enough :D ... The best diving site in Indonesia probably Weh Island (Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam) or Komodo Islands ;) ... tapi infrastruktur untuk pergi ke sana ,..... jangan ditanya :ohno:

^^ Raja Ampat Owns Both of them... its evem actually much larger than the Great Barrier reef in OZ...but yezzz infra...

i still quote borobudur. Cause not only the temple make it a great monument that ever built in Ancient Mataram era. But all of the nature surrounding the temple and the temple itself make an one of the greatfully amazing panomara in the world.
