📍 Destination Overview
Mount Bromo in East Java is the heart of Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, set in the huge Tengger Caldera whose floor is a black 'Sea of Sand'. Visitors cross it to the crater rim for close views of puffing smoke, while dawn reveals a classic sea of clouds. The Tenggerese, East Java's only Hindu people, hold the Yadnya Kasada fire ceremony here, casting offerings into the crater.
