Indonesia forms a large arc from the Indian Ocean towards the Pacific, comprising over 13,000 islands, each one with its own history and character. A trip to Indonesia has space for everything, from the densely populated island of Java to isolated rocks which are home to some rather alarming looking animals, like the Komodo Dragon. The fauna is abundant and varied as a visit to the depths of the Borneo jungle will prove. Many travellers to Indonesia are drawn by Bali, one of the most sought after destinations in the country. Travel to Indonesia and see the biggest flower in the world, and smiles as big as its petals.
