Malang Walking Tour
Malang, Indonesia
Why Walk Malang
Malang sits at 500 meters in the East Javanese highlands, giving it a noticeably cooler climate than the coast. The city preserves more Dutch colonial architecture than most Javanese cities, with tree-lined boulevards and Art Deco buildings in the Kayutangan district. It is the closest city to Mount Bromo and the starting point for treks to Mount Semeru, Java's highest volcano.
