The waterfall was so amazing and majestic ,it was breathtaking.This is not your ordinary waterfall as you need to walk a lot and climb too cause the path to the waterfall was quite steep and slippery.It took me about 6 hours to finish walking and climbing through 4 waterfalls so you need a lot of stamina.It was great and enjoyable as you can climb the waterfalls yourself which was very different from a few waterfalls I visited .I also wanted to thank the local guide cause he help me a lot when going through the slippery waterfalls.So,you must have a local guide to guide you.However ,I must say that this visit to the waterfall may not be suitable for young children and elderly cause it is quite dangerous.

This is a working coffee plantation, it produces coffee. You can see the entire proces from the coffee plant to the roasted coffee bean. You can also taste their coffee in the cafe. They have all their coffee there to taste and you can chose how the coffee is made for you, from Indonesia way as kopi tubruk, as filtered, or French press. There is also a restaurant where you can eat a bit. The factory can be visited as well to see the roasting and milling. In the factory there is all the coffee they produce for you to smell and of course you can buy the coffee here, in powder, or as whole beans. Coffee in the form of powder can also be bought in the cafe.There is a small packet and a bigger one. I bought small packages of all to taste at home and bought a kilo of whole beans from the most nicest smelling coffee. There is also a museum with a lot of stuff from the past and many of that stuff is Dutch. Also the sign board on the entrance gate is still in Dutch and from the past. Some buildings at the plantation are also still from the Dutch area and build by the Dutch. Street names inside the plantation and some signs boards in building have still Dutch names or writings. And the name itself Keboen Kopi Karanganjar, is still the old Dutch writing. In modern Indonesia, keboen (garden) is nowadays written as kebun. For me that was interesting to see as I am Dutch but also partly Indonesian. Besides the museum there is also a small souvenir shop and there is coffee education, where they explain al about coffee. We have also met the current owner, who is now the third generation. That was very interesting and he took the time to speak with us. All the employees here where very friendly and helpful. We stayed here about 4 hours. We came already in the afternoon and so towards the evening there was an enormous sound of all sorts of animals and insects living in the trees in and around the plantation. That was also a nice experience. I can strongly recommend this interesting place. It is interesting about coffee, it is nature, and it is calm and relaxing.

Apart from the very famous Mount Bromo, there are other tourist attractions that must be visited while you are in the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park area. A place that must be visited is the Madakaripura Waterfall. This waterfall is quite famous for both domestic and foreign tourist. Madakaripura is the highest waterfall on the island of Java and the second highest in Indonesia, with the height of about 1000 meters above sea level. Because of its highness, the atmosphere around there are fresh and cold. The unique part of Madakaripura is its circular shape and around the waterfall is decorated with its beautiful shape plants. Madakaripura waterfall is known as an eternal waterfall, because the water flow never decreases. If you go to Madakaripura waterfall you have to bring a raincoat because during the day it often rains suddenly.

Such an unusual experience to see the turtle lay eggs and amazing that each turtle can lay up to a hundred eggs each time. Another interesting experience is that at the Sukamade Beach you can have the pleasure of releasing baby turtle back into the sea and the excitement that the turtle enjoy when they heard the sound of the sea waves What an experience !!!!!!
