Abstract:

Indonesia, with a land area of almost 2,000,000 square kilometers, is made of a myriad of islands including Sumatra, Java, and Bali. Dispersed along the equator, stretching from Sabang to Merauke just north of Australia, Indonesia is an exciting blend of the Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Chinese and Dutch colonial cultures. It’s a nation with a rich history of kings and emperors, of magnificent temples, traditional market places, a unique cuisine, and colorful festivals.
