Among the top destinations for visitors looking for cultural holidays is Bali, with its multitude of beautiful temples. Pay a visit to the capital, Jakarta, home of the National Museum, or go sight-seeing at Malang, where the magnificent colonial architecture and Singosari Temple will take your breath away.
When planning luxury holidays to Indonesia, you can't fail to be enthralled by beautiful Bawean Island, in the East Java province, home to a fascinating variety of marine life in its lakes and waterfalls. Bawean means "sunlight" and this is certainly fitting, as the island enjoys a warm, tropical climate.
