Semeru Mountain
Altitude: 3,676 MDPL History: According to the Javanese people's belief written in the ancient book Tantu Pagelaran which dates back to the 15th century, long ago the Island of Java was floating in a wide ocean, tossed and constantly shaking. The gods decided to nail Java Island by moving Mount Meru in India to the island of Java. Lord Vishnu transformed into a giant tortoise carrying the mountain on his back, while Lord Brahma transformed into a long snake that twisted his body around the mountain and the turtle's body so that the mountain could be transported safely. The gods placed the mountain on the first part of the island they encountered, which is the western part of Java Island. But the weight of the mountain caused the eastern tip of the island to lift up. Then they moved it to the eastern part of the island of Java. When Mount Meru was brought to the east, the scattered pieces of Mount Meru created a mountain range on the island of Java that stretched from west to east. However, when the peak of Meru was moved to the east, the island of Java was still tilted, so the gods decided to cut off part of the mountain and place it in the northwest. These fragments formed Mount Pawitra, which is now known as Mount Pananggungan, and the main part of Mount Meru, the dwelling place of Lord Shiva, now known as Mount Semeru. When Sang Hyang Siwa came to Java, he saw many Jawawut trees, so that the island was called Java.

Kawah Ijen or Ijen Crater.
Altitude: 2,779 MDPL
History: Ijen Crater is an acidic crater lake at the top of Mount Ijen with a lake depth of 200 meters and a crater area of ​​5,466 hectares. Ijen crater lake is known as the largest strong acid lake in the world [1]. Ijen Crater is in the area of ​​Ijen Tourism Park, Bondowoso Regency and Banyuwangi Regency, East Java. The phenomenon of eternal blue fire or eternal blue fire is in the Ijen crater, and this natural sight only occurs in two places in the world, namely Ethiopia (Mount Dallol) and Ijen. [2] Blue fire can only be seen by the human eye when there is no light, so the ideal time to see it is 2 to 4 in the morning, because the climbing of Mount Ijen only starts to open at 2 in the morning. From Ijen Crater, we can see views of other mountains in the Ijen Mountains complex, including the summit of Mount Marapi which is east of Ijen Crater, Mount Raung, Mount Suket, and Mount Rante.
