Stepping into Indonesia's Real-Life Lord of the Rings Forest 🍃

Sunlight filters through the gaps in the trees Creating dappled light Vines and mosses cling to the tree branches As if stepping into a real-life Lord of the Rings forest If you're planning to visit the twin volcanoes in Indonesia Don't miss this off-the-beaten-path attraction 📍 De Djawatan Forest 💰 Admission: 10k Indonesian Rupiah It's about a 1.5-hour drive from Banyuwangi Harbor Banyuwangi Harbor offers ferries to Bali, and it's close to Ijen So here's my suggestion 👇 🍃 Itinerary 1️⃣ Direct route: Ijen Volcano 👉 The Lord of the Rings Forest 👉 Banyuwangi to Bali by ferry 2️⃣ Reverse route: Bali by ferry to Banyuwangi 👉 The Lord of the Rings Forest 👉 Accommodation 👉 Ijen The direct route is volcano first, then Bali; the reverse route is Bali first, then the volcano The reverse route is more suitable in terms of timing, allowing the guide to take you for a tour, then rest for the night before climbing Ijen in the early morning, ensuring good photo conditions and rest 🍃 Photography tips 1️⃣ Wear a solid-colored dress or bohemian style 2️⃣ The light is good from 3-5 pm 3️⃣ The scenic area always releases smoke, and as long as the weather is clear, there will be dappled light 4️⃣ Bring mosquito repellent spray #IndonesiaTravel | #LordoftheRingsForest | #IndonesiaOffTheBeatenPath #IndonesiaIjenVolcano | #TravelPhotography | #TreeTension
