Dieng Plateau: A Hidden Gem in Java’s Highlands
#indonesiatrip
The Dieng Plateau in Central Java, Indonesia, is a stunning and lesser-known destination that took me completely by surprise. Known for its unique volcanic landscape, the plateau offers an otherworldly experience with its misty valleys, craters, and colorful lakes. I started my adventure at Telaga Warna, the "colorful lake," where the shimmering hues of green, blue, and yellow reflected the sunlight, creating a magical atmosphere.
I then visited the Dieng Temples, ancient Hindu shrines set against the backdrop of towering mountains. The cool, crisp air and panoramic views made this a peaceful, almost spiritual spot. Kawah Sikidang, a bubbling sulfuric crater, added to the volcanic drama of the area.
Dieng's charm lies in its untouched, mystical vibe—far from the crowds, yet brimming with beauty and culture. For anyone seeking adventure, natural wonders, and a deeper dive into Java’s heritage, the Dieng Plateau is a must-visit treasure.

This Place Has K-Drama Vibes⁉️😜🙈

Kawah Sikidang/Sikidang Crater is a crater in the area of Dieng Kulon Village, Dieng. This place is often visited by tourists because of its unique crater and instagrammable place.
Why is this Crater named Sikidang? Because the location of the main crater that always moves around, this area is named "sikidang", which comes from "kidang" or deer in English. The moving main crater is likened to the nature of the deer who likes to jump around.
FYI: Sikidang Crater was formed from a volcanic eruption long time ago. Interestingly, this crater is still active until today but the crater is included in the safe category to visit because of its low sulfur content. The surface temperature of the crater is 80-90 degrees Celsius.
