Semarang & Yogja Trip

Impressions

The way to immigration checkpoints is too small – there are only 2 lines. The waiting time might be up to 1 hour after the flight.

Interesting to see normal people acting as police men, guiding the traffic & helping cars cross intersections. They do get tips from the drivers.

Hardly seen (lots of) cabs except near the airport.

Attractions

#Yogyakarta

  • (Pantai) Timang Beach: best experience!
  • miss out Goa jomblang – only open from 10-12pm?
    quite scary to get down to the cave (10-15m height)
  • Kalisuci Cave Tubing?
    • Cave tour: dropped my phone here to a 8m deep water
    • Water drafting: 8m height jump down to water
  • Mount Merapi: good tour via a jeep car (250 rp?)

#Semarang

  • The Old town – around 20-25′ from the center
    A church, park & a few shop selling ancient stuff (e.g. money notes, coins and others). not much to do there.
  • Sam Poo Kong: huge temple & look impressive from far. A mix between Chinese & Javanese structures.
