Indonesia can claim to be the only nation on earth which spans such a broad spectrum of world history & human civilization. From its ancient Hindu-Javanese temples, stone age lifestyle in Irian Jaya to it's modern luxury hotels and modern metropolis in Jakarta.
And from its traditional culture to its beautiful island..

And now, I'll explain about some beautiful island in Indonesia.

Here's some...


RAJA AMPAT, PAPUA.



Raja Ampat of "Four Kings" in Papua is considered to be the richest marine life kingdom in the whole world. The Raja Ampat archipelago encompasses more than 9.8 million acres of land and sea off the north-western tip of West Papua and is located right in the middle of the Coral Triangle which goes from Bali to the Philippines in the north and solomon Island in the east. www.panda.org/coraltriangle and www.coremap.or.id and www.diverajaampat.com

Ai island is one of the top dive sites in the Banda Island for shark encounters due to its isolation. Hammerhead sharks and frequently seen, and thresher and silvertip sharks are occasionally sighted.
