Mount Bromo

Mount Bromo
Mount Bromo located in the impressivelly beautiful Tengger highlands. Mount Bromo National Park is a major drawcard for visitors to East Java. Also we will take you to Cemoro Lawang by pony ride across the sea of sand to the foot of Mount Bromo, climb up the 245 staircase to heaven to the rim of Mount Bromo waiting for the sunrise is an experience not to be missed. To Mount Bromo is one hour from Surabaya. Early morning in Mount Bromo excursion riding the sturdy mountain pony accompanied by the owner in the darkness giving us the idea of riding into enternity. Few other experiences offer the sense of awe that comes from standing on Mount Bromo’s crater rim at the time of dawn and watching the sun touch the clouds that hang over the land down below.

The Bromo crater stands in the middle of a “Sand Sea” a huge sand filled caldera that came into being in the wake of a gigantic aruption in prehistoric times. A steep flight of steps leads from the floor of the caldera to the crater rim, from which point one looks down into the smoking, rumbling crater of the active volcano on the one side. And the Sand Sea with the landscape beyond. The deeply turrowed smaller cone of the exciting Mount Batok nearby amplifies the moonscape like appearance of the surroundings.

This alone makes a visit to Mount Bromo worth the effort. The Bromo caldera and crater, are also the site of a curious ritual observed by the local people, the Tengger, who come by thousands to pay homage to the Bod of Bromo by hurting offerings into the crater. The ritual, called Kesada, is held in the tenth month of the Javanese lunar year, under that full moon.
