"Bromo Volcano is an active volcano located within the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, 140 kilometers from Surabaya City in Indonesia. It is praised as one of the most spectacular sights in Indonesia, with a daunting terrain that resembles the surface of the moon. The Tengger crater of the volcano has a huge diameter of 10 kilometers, and its steep mountain stands on a vast plain of lava sand (locally known as the "Sea of Sand"). The Bromo volcano (altitude 2329 meters) towers above the crater and is the soul of the entire plateau. This desolate area gives people a feeling of the end of the world, especially during sunrise, which is particularly breathtaking."
