An island nation like no other, Indonesia’s diversity is unsurpassed, with modernity and ancient tradition entwined, and historical wonders and cutting-edge metropolises sharing a magnificent tropical backdrop. The best places to visit in Indonesia take you from Bali’s surf breaks to Sumatra’s untamed jungles and the dragon-filled shores of Komodo. Java is home to smoldering volcanoes and ancient temples like Borobudur, while Jakarta buzzes with fast-paced city life. Yogyakarta keeps Javanese traditions alive, and Raja Ampat offers some of the best diving on the planet. Hike, surf, dive, or just soak it all in — Indonesia is an adventure waiting to happen.
