the purpose of the construction of this museum is to educate the public. "It is indeed present to give an overview and awareness to the community about Mount Merapi and about the mountain," he said. Visitors were also shown footage of the story of Mount Merapi from the monitor screen hanging at the entrance. This museum collection also describes the massive eruption of Mount Merapi, research at the Garuda peak, climbing routes, and a series of events related to Mount Merapi. The awesomeness of the eruption of Mount Merapi which was successfully captured through photographs was also exhibited in this museum. Photographs of the Merapi eruption and Garuda peaks decorate the walls of the museum. Early warning posters of Merapi lava are on display. Rocks taken from the rest of the eruption of Mount Merapi contributed to the list of museum collections. An interactive computer presents an overview of examples of documents on the fire.

Ketep has amazing panaroma of Merbabu Mount and Merapi Volcano. Many facilities are offered to visitors. We can watch the documentary movie of Merapi eruption in the theater. If we want to see the view clearly, renting telescopes is the good choice. But if we are lucky to get there when it is sunny, we can enjoy the pretty panorama without using telescope. Miniature of Merapi and surroundings is shown in the Merapi Volcano Museum. You can also have lunch in the restaurant that serve many local foods. Don't forget to buy yummy roasted corn in the food stalls. Ah, the mosque is so clean. The parking lot is so wide. I extremely had a good time there!

If you happen to have half a day free in Yogya, take a car to drive around Merapi to enjoy landscape, villages and busy farmers providing fruit and food for the metropolis. Ketep Pass is a marvellous viewpoint on the volcanos and the terrasses. And if Merapi hides in the clouds, there is still a volcano museum about volcanism in Indonesia and Merapi itself. It deserves to be updated, as the 2010 eruption is not covered anymore and only few objects have an English explanation. But it is still worth visiting; there are hardly any foreigners and the cinema will be opened for you only. The film has English subtitles and is worth watching. Enjoy!

Breathtaking views, but not without its downsides. Visiting Ketep Pass is a treat for those wanting to feast their eyes on Mount Merapi and Merbabu. The covered lookout is a thoughtful touch, especially useful when the rain pours. However, as a Westerner, be prepared for a hefty entry fee – five times higher than locals, though it does come with a free drink. A significant drawback is the limited parking, which becomes particularly problematic during busy weekends. And a word of caution: the toilets leave much to be desired, being quite dirty and poorly maintained. Despite these issues, the stunning views do offer some redemption.
