Consider over 17000 islands spread through an area three times larger than the biggest European country, all of it covered by warm equatorial waters. Interact with hundreds of ethnicities populating the islands. Trace the centuries of history with all the accompanying cultural treasures: arts, crafts, legends, rituals. Observe volcanoes - extinct, dormant and active. Enter large expanses of jungle, often untouched, and in some locations even unexplored. Get used to cities interwoven with agriculture and villages crawling together to form centers of trade: don’t be surprised to see farmers working in a rice field between a shopping mall and a bank. Similarly, take for granted the magic mixed with daily life. Don't forget lagoons so transparent that to observe multi-colored coral gardens on the bottom one doesn’t even need to snorkel – but snorkeling is more fun, of course. Test your balance against world-class surf. Try hearty, filling, tasty food and delicious coffee wherever you go. And, last but not the least, meet some of the most chilled-out, hospitable and helpful people in the world. In short, experience Indonesia, an extremely versatile travel destination. Whether you’re looking for sportive thrills, cultural exploration, or a quiet holiday in a beach bungalow, here you will find it without effort.

Rich with rainforests and outstanding biodiversity, Aceh is home to Gunung Leuser, one of the most popular national parks in Indonesia. Even though one of the less known provinces of Indonesia, Aceh has some of the best beaches and serene islands in the country. Hiking, trekking, diving, surfing, camping – you name it, everything is possible in this northern tip of the Indonesian archipelago. Allegedly, at Ulee Lheue Beach, one can experience one of the most beautiful sunsets. In 2004, this province was hit by a disastrous tsunami that killed almost 200,000 people and destroyed a huge part of the infrastructure. Post-tsunami Aceh is renovating rapidly after the natural disaster, and some considerable constructions are taking place all over the province.
