Wurung crater is a hill with overdraft like a mountain crater covered with grassland like a green rug. This crater is also known as the Bukit Cincin. Because it is located at an altitude of 1,500 meters, the air is also very refreshing. From its peak, as far as the eye could see, there was a carpet that lay wide. When the weather is sunny, Mount Ijen and Merapi stand side by side greeting you. You are guaranteed to never feel satisfied enjoying a scene like this.

In the midst of the lush forest of Bondowoso, it turns out there are unique magnificent buildings, which resemble the ancient site of Stonehenge in England. Seven giant stone stacks stood up in a circle. This is the "super KW" from Stonehenge. The existence of wild trees and bushes and their location at the bottom of the valley makes it even more beautiful than the original!

Unfortunately, because it's in the valley, to look closely you need to go down a dangerous ravine. But you can enjoy the beauty of Betoh So'on from the top of the hill. And it looks even more beautiful because you can see and take pictures with all these rock formations. How can the giant rock stack together neatly? Just like the Stongehenge case, no one knows the answer.

A waterfall about 30 meters high is worthy of being your first choice because it has a lot of uniqueness. First, the water is yellowish and emits a puff of smoke. This is because of the high levels of sulfur from Mount Ijen in it. Secondly, near this waterfall you can relax in hot springs which are believed to be effective in improving blood circulation and healing skin diseases. Third, the beauty of this waterfall can be enjoyed from the side of the cliff. This waterfall itself empties directly into the ground like Niagara Falls in America. About 1 km from here is another waterfall, Niagara Mini. The term is certainly not without reason. Although "mini" and only 6 meters high, the beauty can be pitted.

4. Twin Tancak Waterfall

What is unique about this waterfall is its estuary which is full of lumps of foam, as well as used water containing detergent. But this foam doesn't come from laundry soap. The source of water that comes from Mount Ijen and mixed with sulfur makes its mouth full of white clumps like foam. This sulfur waterfall is set against a rocky cliff that is also no less beautiful. Unfortunately you are recommended not to bathe here because the sulfur content is very high. However, nothing prevents you from taking pictures on the background of exotic cliffs.

Trees here deserve to be called "paramilitary rainbow" because they managed to catch a rainbow in the sky and store the rainbow on the trunk. That is certainly not true. This tree with the scientific name Eucalyptus deglupta actually does have a multicolored stem like a rainbow. The colors on the trunk of the tree come from the sap that comes out of the tree and hits the bark and forms a layer of color. The color that emerges from the sap is blue, then changes to orange, purple and maroon. Unique huh? So to take pictures with the rainbow, there is no need to wait for rain. When you come to this place, these rainbow trees will swarm you to take a picture together.

Oh yeah, another unique feature of this waterfall is its yellowish green water. And from the name, you can guess that the water tastes bitter. This is because the water comes from Ijen Crater with high sulfur content. So, even though the waterfall can be climbed, the water should not be drunk.
