BLITAR – historical city, the land where three proclaimers rest: Ken Arok (Proclaimer of Singasari), Raden Wijaya (Proclaimer of Majapahit), and Sukarno (Proclaimer of the Republic of Indonesia).
Strategically located along the Java tourist route, between Yogyakarta and Malang. With abundant natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant culture, Blitar is not just a place to stop by, but an interesting destination to explore for 2-3 days. As an area located within the Ring of Fire, Blitar has a majestic and active volcano, Mount Kelud.
This is the place where early civilizations emerged in Blitar, which gave birth to the construction of many temples. These temples not only function as holy places for kings, but also as places of worship for the gods who rule over Kelud. Its fertile soil, fertilized by volcanic ash, has also given rise to large plantations of coffee, tea and cocoa. Apart from that, in the southern region, Blitar is famous for its stunning beaches.
Blitar, the Volcano Civilization, is a hidden gem that many tourists still don't know about. However, once you set foot here, you will find it hard to forget this unforgettable experience!
