Surabaya - Adventurous but Worth It

3 days exploring Surabaya – the vibrant port city of Indonesia 🇮🇩, a short journey filled with unforgettable experiences.

📍 Day 1: I started by strolling around the city center, visiting iconic landmarks like the Shark and Crocodile statue (the symbol of Surabaya), churches, and some old town corners. The bustling, modern atmosphere mixed with a touch of antiquity gave me a very unique feeling.

📍 Day 2: The highlight of the trip was conquering Mount Bromo. Waking up at dawn to catch the sunrise and standing before the majestic view of misty clouds and the volcanic crater was truly an unforgettable moment. The natural beauty here made me feel both small and incredibly energized.

📍 Day 3: I spent the last day relaxing, shopping at local malls, and indulging in Surabaya's specialties – from steaming hot bakso, fragrant grilled sate, to simple yet delicious street food. I ended the trip with a hearty meal and a suitcase full of memories.

Surabaya truly offers a wide range of emotions: bustling yet serene, modern yet surrounded by majestic nature. This is definitely a destination worth revisiting in future trips! ✨
