Did you know how big Indonesia is?? Honestly i had no idea until we booked our flights here and i started to look into how to get around. With over 17,000 islands, it’s the largest archipelago in the world. It’s also the country with the 4th highest population. I was amazed to learn that Indonesia is even wider than the continental United States!
Having so many different islands makes Indonesia extremely diverse. There are so many different cultures all over the country which we wanted to learn about! Luckily we heard about Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII) – a recreational park/museum in Jakarta that’s the perfect place to learn about all the different cultures we’ll be visiting in Indonesia over the next 2 months!
Unfortunately when we arrived we didnt see much information.. We decided to go straight to the cable car in hopes that we’d be able to see the layout of TMII from above. The cable car cost 50,000 Rp each (double the entrance price of 25,000 Rp each) although we think it was worth it because we could already see so much from the sky! The park is laid out like a map of Indonesia with all the different areas positioned where they would be geographically. We were able to see the different styles of houses from Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, and many other places which we will soon be visiting! We also saw so many other interesting traditional houses and outfits from places like Borneo and Papua. It was amazing to see how all of these unique cultures make up Indonesia! Of course we had to stop by the famous TMII castle for a picture. We also didn’t realize how big the reptile section was!! It was an additional 25,000 Rp to enter, but they had so many different animals – including real Komodo Dragons! We had such an amazing time exploring Taman Mini Indonesia and now we’re even more excited to explore Indonesia for the next 2 months!!

The reason why the buildings in every region are different is because Indonesia used to be seperate kingdoms and sultanate. Hence the cultures are different.
I love your energy! And I jealous both of you can stand with the heat!
Can't wait to see your next vlog and hope you will get different vibes from every region you go

Welcome to Indonesia, friends.
The archipelago of a thousand nations.
Explore further and deeper off the beaten path.
Hey guys, if you don't mind a little bit adventure to see a little bit of everything to the eastern part of Indonesia (also affordable), take a PELNI ferry from Makassar in South Sulawesi to Jayapura in Papua, I believe it's a 8-10 days trip. It's been like over 20 years ago since I've been in one of the ships, but I believe there is still a route that stops by some places like Bau-Bau, Banda, Tual, etc. and it's really worth it. The ships aren't nice ships like Norwegian cruise lines, they're more like ferries…look it up.
There is nothing much in Makassar except that it's a culinary paradise. But when you transit there to go to Toraja, take a quick look at Rammang-Rammang…
no one there
0:10 AYO IS THAT A NIGG-
