Does it feel like you’re in China?

One of the temples you can visit in Semarang. Sam Poo Kong is not quite far from the city. I really love the buildings. It’s really beautiful and colorful. The ticket price is around USD 1 each but if you want to enter all the temple the ticket should be twice as much. Multiracial issue is not appeared here at all. You can learn about Cheng Ho and his journey to Indonesia. I love the way it stands on the main area of the temples. It has both Chinese and Javanese culture. People who come here are not supposed to pray only, but also do the bigger thinks. Sam Poo Kong is so beautiful yet full of awesome historical story! ⛩🌟⛅️🍂 #solstice #urbanexplorer #summervacation #hikingtrails #adventure #historicculture #historicarchitecture #summervacation #hikingtrails #urbanexplorer

For the information, the mountain comes with 3 fabulous peaks! The tallest one is indeed Ungaran Peak. The others are Botak and Gendol Peak, which are also suitable for trekking.

Semirang Waterfall resides in the slope of Ungaran Mountain (located in the north part of it). That means you should undergo a short trekking in order to get to the site. It indeed takes some time, but it is worth the effort. In terms of size, the waterfall has the height of 45 meters and it resides on an area of 10 hectares. One thing, the landscape is slippery sometimes, especially in the rainy season. Therefore, everyone should wear comfy footwear and walk carefully while heading to the location. Another important consideration is related to the budget. It does cost some money to pay the entrance fee, after all. For those who don’t want to get wet, though, they can simply sit on the stones and watch the panorama comfortably. As an alternative, they can sit on the available benches built by the locals. #summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer
