Situated between the continents of Australia and Asia, the Indonesian archipelago is a picturesque landscape ranging from rain forests and lush grasslands, to volcanic peaks and semi-desert. With 350 cultures and hundreds of languages spread over 13,000 islands, the sheer ethnic diversity makes it a vibrant cultural mosaic.
Home to the endangered Komodo dragon, sea turtles and world's largest flowers - Rafflesia arnoldii, the country is blessed with plentiful flora and fauna. Beautiful Batik and ikat fabrics are great souvenir buys. You could indulge in some world-class diving and snorkelling off Bali, feast your eyes on the sea gardens of Sulawesi, splash in the great surfing spots in Java and Sumatra or enjoy windsurfing and rafting.
