There’s been so much hype about Indonesia. We just don’t understand why. That could only mean one thing – these people must never have travelled to other destinations before. Here’s 25 reasons to convince you that travelling to Indonesia is absolutely pointless. 1. It’s not like Indonesia has a great sunrise view. Photo via Marc Schmittbuhl 2. Light from heaven? Come on, it’s only Jomblang cave in Yogyakarta. Photo via Zexsen Xie Photo via Puchong Pannoi If you are still not intimidated by it, you should follow us on Instagram Photo via Olivier Grunewald
5. See crater lakes in Mount Kelimutu ? Nay, not pretty either. Yeah, they will change colour, but that’s all. Photo via holykaw.alltop 6. A sea of ugly islands you don’t need to check out? 7. Water bungalows in Raja Ampat? Ugh, the water is too dirty! 8. Watch the sunrise at Tebing Keraton in Bandung? I would rather snuggle in my bed. Photo via rajatourbandung They say Tebing Keraton is the coolest destination in Bandung on Instagram. I say, spare me please, I can see the same thing in Norway. 9. There’s no interesting wildlife in Indonesia. Traveling to Komodo Islands is like entering the Jurassic Park. Why would you risk your life getting eaten up by these wildly-roaming monsters that can grow up to 3m?! The one-ton heaviest known bony fish Mola Mola is not interesting either, seriously, don’t bother diving at Nusa Penida. 10. Don’t even mention the stingless jellyfish in Kakaban islands , they are truly gross. Photo via CheanChong Lim 11. Panoramic view at Kalibiru, Bukit Menoreh ? Nope, you will fall to your death.

Photo via archipelagofastfact You have to take more than 11 hours to reach the Wae Rebo Traditional Village . Are you sure you want to see this weird place? Photo via Minakmataphotography And what’s so special about these paper and bamboo monsters during the Ogoh Ogoh festival in Bali? Photo via thejakartapost 15. Kenawa Island in Sumbawa just resembles Middle Earth. Now what’s all that hype about? Really, what’s there?

Photo via Nicko Vandha What’s wrong with those people who keep going to Caringin Tilu for the night view? 20. Madakaripura Waterfall ? Why do you want to get yourself totally wet in here? Photo via jelajah-nesia 21. The underwater life isn’t really interesting.

Photo via Clement Gultom 23. Why are people so fascinated by this abandoned plane that’s chilling out at someone’s backyard? Seriously. You can find it anywhere. They are just ruins, isn’t it?
24. Why bother climbing Puncak Jaya when you can conquer greater mountains? Say, Everest? Photo via yukpegi 25. Mount Bromo is just another volcano. Photo via Mazrobby You should really never travel to Indonesia, because…… Photo via worldnomads Once you are here, you’ll fall in love, and won’t bear to leave.
