To reach Bromo, you will walk or ride a horse to an altitude of 2,329 m. Bromo is also one of the rare places where Hinduism exists in Java, worshiping volcanoes. Every year, villagers hold a Kasada offering ceremony for Bromo peak...

Cervin Mountain - Switzerland and Italy

Often referred to as the Matterhorn, the 4,478-meter Cervin mountain peak on the border of Switzerland and Italy is used as the official logo for the chocolate brand Toblerone. The majestic Cervin with the shape of "God's finger" always urges the conquest of tourists.

Mount Fuji, located on the southern coast of Honshu Island, stands 3,776 m high and is a symbol of Japan and a source of inspiration for artists around the world. On a clear day, standing on the top of Fuji, you can see all the way to Tokyo.

The climbing season for Mount Fuji is only in July and August. At this time, the roads leading up the mountain are crowded with tourists. It takes about 4 hours and 30 minutes to reach the summit from the starting point. There are about 20 rest stops (some with overnight rooms) along the way up the mountain.

Normally, the conquest of Fuji is always calculated at dawn so that visitors can easily witness the most perfect sunrise.

Mount Sinai - Egypt

The holy mountain Sinai in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula is a famous pilgrimage site, because according to the Bible, this is where the prophet Moses first met God and received the Ten Commandments.

And on top of Sinai, the colorful dance of dawn or the meteor shower lighting up the night sky awaits you...
