Holidays in Petarukan
Keen to get away from it all? Can't stop stalking hashtags like #BeautifulDestinations? Then book a flight to Petarukan and journey through the seriously beautiful beaches, rainforest and active volcanos of Central Java.
The nation's capital city, Jakarta, is situated 300 kilometres to the west of Petarukan.
Don't forget to visit other close-by sights, such as Alun Alun Kota Pemalang and Widuri Water Park. You'll come across them 6 kilometres west in Pemalang. Don't want to give back the rental car just yet? Plaza Pekalongan and the Pekalongan University are in Pekalongan, 25 kilometres to the east of Petarukan.
Feel like going to Alun-Alun Park, Rita SuperMall and Pacific Mall? Make tracks to Tegal, 35 kilometres to the west, and set up camp. These sights, along with the Tek Hay Kiong Temple and the Pancasakti University Building, are all close.
Want to have some fun on the water? Then slip on your sunscreen and have a go at some swimming or snorkeling.
Spend some time inside wandering around the wonders of the region's history museums and craft workshops.
Would you like to spend the day outdoors? Consider an adventure to one of the surrounding area's open-air markets.
History nerds will appreciate the area's ruins and traditional villages. If that sounds like you, do a little research and choose one to discover first.
Learn how religion plays an important role in the lives of those who call Petarukan home by paying a visit to some of the local mosques, temples and shrines.
Feeling ready to nibble, gnaw, crunch, munch and guzzle your way around Central Java? A world of delectable flavours awaits you, so change into your stretchiest jeans and bon appétit!
While Petarukan features a range of scrumptious foods, you shouldn't overlook gorengan (fritters) and ayam goreng (fried chicken). Considered signature dishes, you'll have to put them on your must-try list if you really want to taste this destination.
Because a life without dessert isn't worth living, you should definitely order some getuk (moulded sweetened cassava paste). This sweet treat sums up the area in just one mouthful.
If you're considering heading to Petarukan in August, you'll want to be here on the 17th for Independence Day. There's always some excitement in the air leading up to this day of national celebration.
Time spent in the beautiful Central Java region is an enriching and unique experience, and hopefully it will have touched you with its magic. But alas, all holidays must come to an end.
When the time arrives to pack your bags and hit the skies, the closest terminal, Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK), is 320 kilometres to the west.
