Indonesia, amazing destination for holiday

The easter break is about to come!!

for some students it means the time to go for a holiday and find interesting place to visit in 2-3 weeks. and I'm planning to go for a holiday in this easter break to have a little time to forget for a while the assignments, the examination, just to refresh my brain. I choose to go to my country and enjoy the time there

There are many countries and places around the world that have their own characteristic and their own speciality of tourism, Indonesia is one of the south east asia country that offer wide range of interest. maybe many of us only know about BALI, the island of god that attract many people to come to Indonesia, in fact there are still many tourism spots which can make you amazed, the komodo island where the dragon lizard lived, Lombok island where you can dive, snorkling or just have a great relaxation in the beautiful white sand beach. or you can go to danau kelimutu (kelimutu lake) in East Nusa Tenggara where it has 3 lakes with 3 different colour that change from time to time (as you see on the main picture). you will never see this amazing nature anywhere else except in Indonesia.

There are 4 main reasons, why Indonesia could become your next holiday destination:

1. Delicious food! no matter where you come from no matter what your taste, you can find any kind of food in Indonesia, especially the delicious Indonesian culinary. some of my friends from another countries has visited Indonesia admit that the food in Indonesia is very delicious.
