图帕克塞乌瀑布 Tumpak Sewu Waterfall


图帕克塞乌瀑布 (Tumpak Sewu Waterfall) ,也被称为 Coban Sewu Waterfall,是东爪哇最美丽的瀑布之一。这座令人叹为观止的瀑布高120米,位于陡峭的悬崖边。从广阔的地表流入圆形的谷底,纯天然形成的环形水幕隐藏在玛琅 (Malang) 和卢马江 (Lumajang) 之间一片茂密的原始森林之中。Tumpak Sewu 在爪哇文里的意思就是“千瀑”。


Tumpak Sewu, also known as Coban Sewu, is a tiered waterfall that is located between the Pronojiwo District, Lumajang Regency, and the Ampelgading District, Malang Regency, in East Java, Indonesia. The waterfall is overshadowed by Semeru, an active volcano and the highest mountain in Java. 

The Glidik River, which flows down Semeru, is the primary water source for the waterfall. Tumpak Sewu is loosely translated to mean "a thousand waterfalls" in the Javanese language. The name likely originated due to its appearance of many different waterfalls in one single, semi-circular area.

塞梅魯火山 Mount Semeru

塞梅魯火山是印度尼西亞的火山,位於爪哇島東南部,行政方面由東爪哇省負責管轄,海拔高度3,676米,是爪哇島最高的山峰,自1818年有55次火山爆發的記綠,造成熔岩流和火山碎屑流,所有爆發的強度為火山爆發指數2至3級。

2021年12月4日,塞梅鲁火山於該年第二次喷发(首次於2021年1月),並於同月6日發生第三次噴發。噴發造成至少43人丧生、13人失蹤]、104人灼傷。

The Semeru, or Mount Semeru is an active volcano located in East Java, Indonesia. It is located in a subduction zone, where the Indo-Australian plate subducts under the Eurasia plate. It is the highest mountain on the island of Java. The name "Semeru" is derived from Meru, the central world mountain in Hinduism, or Sumeru, the abode of gods. This stratovolcano is also known as Mahameru, meaning "The Great Mountain" in Sanskrit. It is one of the more popular hiking destinations in Indonesia.

Eruptive history

Semeru's eruptive history is extensive. Since 1818, at least 55 eruptions have been recorded (11 of which resulted in fatalities) consisting of both lava flows and pyroclastic flows. All historical eruptions have had a Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) of 2 or 3. Semeru has been in a state of near-constant eruption from 1967 to the present.

彩虹村 Kampung Warna-warni


彩虹村(Kampung Warna-warni)是位于印度尼西亚东爪哇玛琅市佐迪班一街的一个小村庄。这个色彩斑斓的村庄曾经是位于布兰达斯河周围的贫民窟,如今已成为玛琅市的著名旅游景点,每年都有大批的游客慕名而来,更成为了无数摄影爱好者的取景好去处。

布兰达斯河畔的贫民窟,似乎与整个城市隔离般,空气中仿佛萦绕着灰色压抑。热闹,繁华,均与贫民窟挨不着边。直到有一天,几名穆罕默迪亚大学(Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang)传播学专业的学生来到这个贫民窟参与社会实践,他们看着这个与玛琅市格格不入的村庄陷入了沉思,怎样才能改变这个村庄呢?怎样才能让这个贫民窟充满希望呢?

他们经过一番考察后,突然思考出有望使此村变得明亮、活泼的好想法——用油漆为这个村庄增添色彩。他们开了一家油漆公司,几经波折,终于取得了玛琅市民和政府的支持,用色彩斑斓的油漆装点这个贫民窟,各种建筑物五彩斑斓让流连其中的人仿佛看到彩虹一般,从此贫民窟变成了现在的彩虹村。

Jodipan: Colorful Rainbow Village in Malang, Java

Somewhere in East-Java is the most colorful village you have ever seen! A few years ago, an entire slum area in the city of Malang Indonesia was ready to be demolished and relocate all its residents. However, a group of students from a university in Malang came up with the idea to give the whole area a fresh and remarkable splash of paint in the hope of attracting the attention of tourists. In June 2016, the air force troops painted the entire village (named Jodipan), and directly after, tourists started to notice this colorful rainbow village in Java.
