| Mountains of Bromo |
Mount Bromo
located in the area of National Park Bromo Tengger Semeru which is extended
arround four cities in East Java Province, those are Probolinggo, Malang,
Pasuruan and Lumajang. To reach Mount Bromo you can take overland from
Probolinggo to Cemoro Lawang, so from Cemoro Lawang, you can hire Hardtop to go
to Penanjakan to explore seas of sand and the crater of Mount Bromo. This mount
was popular with very-very beautiful sunrise view, usually tourist must climb
early morning to the top of mount Bromo only for enjoy the beautiful moment of
sunrise between mount and active crater of Bromo, the perfect place to enjoy
sunrise is in the Penanjakan. If you’re lucky, when you get down of the mount,
you also can see rainbow extended above seas of sand between cliffs which is
surround those area. In addition to enjoy the sunrise moment from the
Penanjakan, you can also enjoy the views of the district of mount Bromo, mount
Batok and mount Semeru, seas of land and the wide caldera and the hill of
Teletubbies and “Pure Poten” which is located at central of seas of sand, this place
usually used for relegiuos ceremonies by the people of Tengger.
The
district of Bromo mountains inhabited by people of Tengger, they are Hindu adherents. Once a year at
the night 14th of month Kasada, they hold annually ceremonial called Yadna
Kasada, this ceremony held in order to ask Sang Hyang Widi for their safety and
blessing. Peoples of Tengger gather in the
mouth of crater of Bromo carrying every kind of offerings and then they throw
it to the crater of Bromo. This ceremony actually become an intersting moment
and many tourist usually wait for this moment to capture. If you want to stay
in Bromo for little long time and live with the people of Tengger and to enjoy
the the landscape and the daily activities of Bromo’s people, you can take rent people house arround Cemoro Lawang and Ngadisari village.

| Madakaripura waterfall |
Not too far from slope of Bromo,
we can find historic waterfall of Madakaripura, this is the hermitage place of prime
minister of Majahit kingdom Gajah Mada. Waterfall of Madakaripura can reached about
45 minutes from Bromo’s district. When you arrive to main gate of this
waterfall area, you must walk about 15 minutes again so you can enjoy the
waterfall, in my opinion this is highest waterfall in East of Java or even in
Indonesia. I suggest you to use mountaineering boots, because the area of this
waterfall are wet and slippery. When you turn left and right you can see mosses
coverage the walls of the cliff, the blast of wind contained water resulted by
the spark of waterfall made it grow and turn green the cliffs. In this place
your eyes will enjoy beautiful landscape of rocks and great waterfall, and if
the weather is good you’ll find a rainbow between those cliffs.
