Tourist destinations in Malang not only have mountain tourism and agro-tourism but also have natural attractions of extraordinary beauty, especially the South Malang area. This area is full of beautiful beaches in Malang whose beauty is not inferior to the beaches in Lombok or other beautiful Indonesian islands. There is one beach in Malang that is on the rise, namely Teluk Asmara Beach.The Teluk Asmara Beach route. The route to Teluk Asmara beach if from Malang can be through two alternative roads that you can take, namely: *Malang-Kepanjen.

bicycling to the beach its fun. Karang Dowo Beach is located at Gajahrejo Village, Gedangan District, Malang Regency, East Java. It is called 'Karang Dowo' because there is a coral uplift with a height of about 2 meters and a length of about 1 km that limits the shoreline to the open sea. The reef is like an embankment that blocks every incoming wave.The price of admission to Parang Dowo Beach is set at Rp. 15,000 per person. This fee includes parking for two-wheeled vehicles. Meanwhile, if you bring a four-wheeled vehicle, you have to add a fee of IDR 10,000 for one car. In addition to having to pay for tickets, there are several other facilities at Parang Dowo Beach that can only be enjoyed by paying in advance. For example, to go to the toilet, you need to pay Rp. 2,000. Meanwhile, to rent one of the inns near the beach, the rate starts from IDR 250,000 per night. #beaches #qingmingtravel

Old bund, Moon lake, and Science Exploration Center, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China. That's all I covered with one night's stay there. It was an awesome trip. The Moon Lake is about a one-kilometer walking distance from Ningbo Railway Station. It was nice to watch the boats floating all around the lake paddling by the visitors. The Old Bund is awesome at night. The adjacent church is a must visiting spot. You can enjoy late-night drinking at any chosen bar among many with live music. Overall, I like the vibrancy of Ningbo🤗 #historicculture#urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel#springblossoms#lightthecity

These two weeks are the best time for Shanghai's flowers to bloom. Tulips, peach blossoms and cherry blossoms are in full bloom. This year, Shanghai stopped a lot of tulips on the Bund. From No. 3 on the Bund to the Waibaidu Bridge, walking along the way, the tulips of various colors are so beautiful. The lights on the Bund will be on after 18:00 in the evening, and the tulips under the night scene are also really romantic! If you haven't planned where to go during the Qing Ming holiday, why not go to the Bund? #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #springblossoms #springblossoms

Kezhi Garden, 课植园, is a haven of peace and tranquility inside Zhujiajiao Old Town. I visited Zhujiajiao on Qingming Festival, and while most of the old town was packed, there were very few people inside the Kezhi Garden. Perhaps the nondescript entrance or the ¥20 admission kept visitors away, but for me it was a highlight of the whole trip. Built by the Ma family and dating in part to the Ming Dynasty, it includes classical gardens and buildings, a two storey library and a small farm, where the patriarch of the family encouraged his progeny to learn farming as well as scholarly activities so they would better understand the world and be able to enjoy the satisfaction of manual labour. The model farm was planted with bright yellow rapeseed and vegetables when I visited. Don't miss this hidden gem when visiting Zhujiajiao. #leaveyourmark #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #lightthecity #shanghai #garden #springflowers #peaceful #rest #historicallandmarks #classical #architecture

At the top of She Hill in Sheshan Park, Shanghai, stands the Basilica of Our Lady of Sheshan, a large Romanesque structure built in the 1920s (replacing an earlier church from 1863.) It is in the large Sheshan National Forest Park, a huge outdoor area in western Shanghai including an amusement park, resorts, a planetarium and other attractions. I visited on a Sunday which was both Qingming Festival and Easter Sunday, so it was predictably busy, but only the initial climb up the hill was really crowded. Avoid this set of stairs (leading from the entrance gate) and climb from the east side, which has a gentler ascent and the Stations of the Cross along the way. Enjoy the relatively fresh air, fine view and many trees as you walk around the park. You can take the metro to Sheshan Station, from which point there are free shuttles. I opted to walk and it took about an hour from the metro station to West Sheshan Park where the basilica is located. From this side you can also get a city bus to the line 17 station, from which point I continued to Zhujiajiao, which is only a few stations further along. #LeaveYourMark #qingmingtravel #lightthecity #urbanexplorer #shanghai #park #forest #china

Waterfalls and hot springs: Maribaya Natural Hot Spring Resort. Well maintained nature resort. As a natural attraction its clean indeed and not so crowded on weekend which is rare in Indonesia. Maybe because the entry ticket price. There is some waterfalls eventhough its not amazing, well maybe it can considered as some river's flow only. Must try the private hot springs, the water temperature not so hot as in Ciater which is perfect to relax. When you go in, there's a food court on the right side with different kind of food stalls. Then we enter a tunnel bridge with beautiful view of the river. There was some souvenir stores in the left/right side of the Plaza. Overall a must try attraction in Lembang. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

I'm a regular visitor of Tahura. Tahura is a good place for working out in nature. You need to hike about 5km (from the parking area) to reach the top, and 5km more also to go back (total 10km). A good way to burn some calories, but if you're not a regular-exercising person, the trip will be very exhausting. There're some nice warungs on the top. Visit Warung Ibu Nani for its best Bala-Bala, or the Warung nasi timbel (at the end of the warung line) for its terrific fried fish! Walk 2km more and you will find Curug Omas. Tips: don't take the offers from local people at the Cave to take their flashlights for walking through the cave. You will be charged 20K for one flashlight! Just use your flashlight app on your phone. #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Lembang makes for the perfect destination for mountaineers as it is situated on the highland of Bandung. So if you’re in search for the next adrenaline rush through height, then Batu Mount might just be the perfect choice for you. Just as the name suggests, Gunung Batu or the Stone Mountain is dominated with large rocky surfaces all the way to its top. As one of the tallest mountains in Lembang, you get to witness the unobstructed view of other surrounding mountains such as Tangkuban Perahu, Gunung Putri, Bukit Tunggul and Palasari. All of which enhance the vivid beauty of Mount Batu as a whole. It also makes for the best camping site to get your dose of sunrise. #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Stone and plants in the wild it would look natural, cover the area of the Stone Garden Padalarang. The scenery of this location is very good, where you will also see the vast expanse of hills, chalk white ones and brown the visible contrast with green trees. If the weather is sunny, then certainly enjoying the sunshine in the morning or afternoon from this place will be so exotic, where the sky is blue with white clouds it's on top of a stretch of green trees and limestone for documented with your camera. Here, you can find seashells embedded on the rocks – bizarre indeed! Since not many people know about this spot yet, make sure you bring your own water as there are no warungs open at the venue (as of now!). #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

In terms of nuance, Gua Pawon or simply known as Pawon Cave is quiet and sacred. It is because not many travelers are aware of this natural attraction, so the number of visitors is not as many as other places. The cave resides on a hill, located on about 600 meters above the sea level. No wonder, the atmosphere feels cool and the scenery is quite amusing. The unique part is that archeologists have found several fossils of human, who lived in this site back then. This explains why the cave owns an important historical value for both researchers and tourists. Another reason why Pawon Cave popular is its interesting landscape, which is suitable for rock climbing. Thanks to the karst cliff located on the site. Everyone has the opportunity to try such fun outdoor activity, even beginners. As an alternative, trekking to nearby hills is a good idea too, especially for nature lovers. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Most people visit the river to see its turquoise colored waters which is a natural phenomenon there as well as the exquisite nature surroundings. Hence, the area earned itself the name Green Canyon of West Java. Take a break and breathe in fresh air and soak yourself in crystal clear river water while you are there. This is indeed a place to rejuvenate not just the body but the soul as well. The word Cikahuripan derived from the Sundanese language means water of life. The locals here believed that the water from the Cikahuripan River brings a lot of benefits to those who use it. Located in the Saguling District, West Bandung Regency, Cikahuripan River is a branch of the Citarum River. The river is towered by two 10 meter high cliffs which is similar to the Green Canyon in Pangandaran. This tourist spot is famous for its picture-worthy scenery and many would visit just to soak in its clear waters while enjoying the stunning view from below. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

The place is small and compact, but with its own charm. It has souvenir shops, super small museum/memorabilia space, food court, and small cafes. You can rent and get a picture taken with Chinese traditional costume. It also has a Chinese and Sundanese music show. Visiting this place brings me to my childhood, particularly the food. I hope the owners can expand the space to include revitalizing the surrounding neighborhood in order to have a stronger feel of "Chinatown". Mostly is the outdoor food Court, the ambience and the hype is like in mainland China. Easy to reach, in the city center, they not accepting cash, you should have some debit card or electronic payment card. Love the ambience, a lot of visitor coming in during holiday season Parking seems to be a problem. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

This hotel is exactly very quiet when me and the group stayed there. I am exactly like the view, the lay out of the villa is nice. Every villa has an access to the lake also a connection to another room through the wooden path on the terrace. The room is okay, built in wooden style, has a private whirl pool. In term of the food, have no complaints for the food (We had dinner, breakfast, lunch in the same restaurant), all are acceptable for me but only need more food variety of the food. It is a quiet place, and feels like in a sanctuary, best place for retreat. I enjoy the moment to row the boat in the (artificial) lake and selfie the moment, it is cool. This hotel also has a huge area at the back side, it is exactly fit for doing a team building or other outdoor activities. It is recommended for family retreat, group of employee outing. #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Surrounded by slopes of lush greenery and a gorgeous lake, Sapulidi is the best therapeutic place for you to recharge and get some peace and quiet away from the city. The rooms are mostly made of wood, and even each room has a unique name – Putri No’ong, Kembang Desa, Congklak, and many more – all derived from Sundanese culture and folklores. Scenery was nice, like rice paddy field and jungle in every table and seats. There is also small river between houses to houses, provide more relaxing ambience. Price was worth every penny. come here 5 people and spend $100++ Eating like a farmer in the farm, increase your appetite and the price is cheap, not expensive. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Tebing Gunung Hawu is a cliff from limestone mountains and is one of the off the beaten track in Bandung. For the adventurous, get a hold of a hammock operator and swing from one between the rocks overlooking the cliff. A tip is to book early for it before going as they can all be taken especially during peak season. The lush green scenery here is well worth your time even if not from a swinging hammock. For sunrise enthusiasts, Tebing Gunung Hawu boasts a fantastic viewpoint to watch the sun wake up for its morning duties. Better yet, you can catch that sunrise from your perch in a hammock, hanging precariously between two towering cliffsides. Has that image gotten your adrenaline running? #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Floating Market Lembang is basically a food court where the merchants stay in a boat anchored to the pave way. It might be a decent place to rest before going to other spots in Lembang - especially in the middle of weekend traffic. You have to pay IDR 25k to get in (redeem the ticket for a free beverage) and IDR 5k for motorbike parking. To purchase the foods, you have to buy Coin in the Coin Stalls (available every 5-10 meters around the food court area). While visiting the Floating Market, you can walk to another part of the settlement: Kota Mini Lembang and other attractions. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

First time visiting this area. Some facilities and areas are still under construction. Fortunately we got a space for parking and having lunch. The staff was very helpful and attentive. The food tasted standard, almost plain, but the service was fast. The view was average, as we felt that the restaurant is already overcrowded with buildings and visitors. If you don't have enough time to spare for a night of glamping, Lereng Anteng offers you the experience over a single meal. Located at Jalan Baru Laksana 75, Punclut, Ciumbuleuit, guests are invited to dine in transparent plastic tents located on a terraced hill with a view of the surrounding plantation. #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Well we were so excited to go to this park. There is so many attractions here such as, riding ATV, Row a Boat, Children Playground, Riding Horse, Feeding rabits, and much more. We Haven't explore much at this park, because the area is so large, we only spent 2 hours here, but you can spend more than 2 hours if you want. Entrance ticket IDR 20k/person/car and if you want to play each activity will cost you around IDR20-40k / person, you can take bus 'wara wiri' to go down to the lower area if you want it cost IDR 10k / person. Tips : wearing comfort shoes because you have take stairs/ long walk along the area Enjoy your holiday :) #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Initially I am somewhat sanctioned with this place, but after arriving at this place, the atmosphere where family and place to relax killing tired work directly greet you and family, for coffee and cigarette lovers, this place seemed like a world paradise, cold atmosphere, villages, forests and resorts, very beautiful. Still in the south area of Bandung, this restaurant is located in the natural hill of Gambung, nearby Wisma Santo Aloysius. The heart-shaped bamboo stage adds romance to the Love Garden and Love Lake they have. You might want to consider declaring your feelings to a loved one here. If you are on the way to White Crater, drop by here for a quick visit. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

It's beautiful place and listen to the legend shared by the locals. They will guide you throughout your journey at Tangkuban Perahu, and don't forget to tip them! A must go if you come visit Bandung. We took out our drone to play it but was stop by the ranger and wanted to charge us SGD$100. Tip: Sneak and use your drone somewhere deeper in the forest area to get a quick shot of the place! Risky, but worth it. Visit the cave nearby too. 30mins hike. It's pretty spooky, though. Absolutely thrilling experience to be at the very edge of an active crater. Lots of sellers to sell you junk, best to avoid. But well worth it in my opinion. Not the sort of thing one can do often. If you love nature and want to see the awesomeness of a volcano, must do experience!! #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

If you visit here, don't forget to print your ticket. Please be note. Before we entrance, we'll get a glass of milk. Then we start the journey the farmhouse. There are Holland house, food court in every single alley, animal feeding spot, hobbit house. The air is really cool, but I suggest to you to not come in weekend. It will be so crowded. The location near the main road from Bandung to Lembang. Large parking, but if you bring motorbike. It separate with the main location. There are also some cafes and small pets farm for you to play around (need extra entrance fee). Enjoy the Farmhouse. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

A thousand-year old town renowned for its vast system of alleyways and canals. Dayan Old Town makes for a beautiful jaunt around one of Lijiang’s ancient villages. Things to do: 🏞 Pay a visit to the Black Dragon Pool, which is only a 30 or so minute walk from the entrance of Dayan Old Town. Here you will be able to see a stunning pagoda set against the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain itself. 🏞 Wander through the narrow streets of the old town, admiring the architecture, the amazing floral arrangements that add to the town’s charm and small shops along the way. You’ll find everything from souvenirs of silver, tea, trinkets and more, as well as small eateries and bars you can dive into when needing to fuel up. 🏞 Head up one of the hills and duck into one of the many cozy cafe’s in the area that offer great coffee and even better views of the old town from their terraces! 📍Dayan Old Town, Lijiang, Yunnan #qingmingtravel

For an active weekend away in Yunnan, be sure to pay a visit to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Blue Moon Valley! They’re in the same “attraction” area, so you can easily spend a whole day here wandering through the natural scenery. 🏔 You can take a cable car up to the start of a gentle ascent up to one of the highest points accesible to visitors on the mountain - which is at an elevation of 4506 meters. 🏔 The scenery is absolutely stunning, and we were lucky enough to see such an amazing coverage of snow as it had snowed a few days before we arrived! But be sure to take the ascent to the peak slowly if you’ve never hiked up that high before - the altitude can really get to you! 🌙 Blue Moon Valley is a stunning area that features waters that are bright / vibrant in colour thanks to the natural minerals like copper sulfate. 🌙 It’s a chain of waterfalls and lakes that you can stroll through, and it will probably only take about 1 / 1.5 hours at a leisurely pace. 📍Lijiang, Yunnan #qingmingtravel

Wuyishan is absolutely breathtaking. We went there over Tomb sweeping holiday, and the price to go into the park was maybe a bit higher because of the holiday (¥365 for 3 days), but there is so much to do outside, that i don't think it's neccesary to go in. I would highly recommend Wuyishan for a little break from the city, to relax and refresh your soul. #travelinspiration#unforgettableexperiences#couplestrip#nationalpark#naturalwonders#qingmingtravel

Located in the ever-growing area of Sentul is Gunung Pancar. Cool weather and local forests can be enjoyed by everyone, and once you’re finished you can enjoy some amazing food in Giuliani’s or head to Jungle Land for some fun with the family. Went there shortly. Pine forest looks good, however camp was packed with visitos especially youngster with motorbike. If you're looking for a quit forest adventure this is not quite right. Hot spring water felt great but place was not fancy at all, it's disorganized. It is such a pity as it can be better than that. Totally dependent on local community and local govt to develop though. #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel

Nestled among tea fields, beneath a volcano, is Ciater hot springs. Beautiful natural surroundings are accompanied by good staff and clean accommodation, which altogether is great for couples looking for a place to relax, or families wanting to show the children the local wildlife. If you are looking for a soothing therapeutic(?) foot and body massage by and in a hot spring, this is for you. At a cost of less than 5usd, you can get a good massage by some experienced masseurs readily available in the area. If you are looking for a dip in the hot spring or some exciting water activities like rowing as well as horse riding, you will also find this interesting. An array of food courts that serve an array of food for your taste buds. Visit and see. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel
