The tour of the stone city

The Batu city was a city in the East Java Province, Indonesia. This city was located 15 km next west the Malang City, was in the Malang-Kediri route and Malang-Jombang. The Batu city shared a border direct with the Mojokerto Regency and the Pasuruan Regency on the north as well as with the Malang Regency on the east, south, and west. This city territory was in the height 680-1.200 metre from sea level with the temperature of air in general 15-19 Celsius levels.When you liked the city tour, visited the city like Bandung, Jogja or Solo, and wanted to try the different atmosphere, possibly you must draft repeated your holiday plan this time, and in place of your main aim of becoming the Batu City. This suggestion not because I was asked by the Batu service of City tourism to make this article:). However, penjalanan some time before there, gave me the different impression compared with other cities.This small city was located in North Kota Malang, East Java. Said as the city, because the characteristics of the city were seen here. The government's system that began to be arranged, perkerjaan that changed from engaging in farming became non-agrarian and the characteristics of the other city that has been seen. Said small, because of the density in general his inhabitants was still relatively low, 800 souls/km, when compared with the Jogja City that reached 15,000 jiwa/km2, Bandung 15,000 jiwa/km2, Jakarta 13,000 jiwa/km2, and Surabaya 22.000/km2. Moreover when being compared his neighbouring city, Malang, that his population density reached 5600 jiwa/km2. Possibly this that caused not the discovery of the traffic jam during me there, except the tour destination during the week end.

The first impression that was received when arriving in the Batu City was beautiful. With the nature situation that was surrounded mountains like the Ajuno mountain, Welirang, Kawi and Buntok, made this city have the beautiful panorama. The winding road followed punggungan around these mountains, increased beauty of this city. When you came to travel from the Malang City, you will continue to go upwards to the centre of the Batu City. From the centre of your city will continue to go upwards, if straight continued, you will pass the road towards Kediri, and if the right bend, you will head Pacet. If you no longer find the road going upwards then you left the Batu City. Because of the North and West limit this city was punggungan that continued between these mountains, and normally was mentioned saddle. The other impression that was felt was cool, or possibly cold to be precise. For me who came from Jakarta, the city in the coast, the temperature between 17-25,6C was enough to force clothes to be thick was put on. The administrative territory of this city indeed was in the height 600-3000 mdpl.

Spoke about administration, this city was the city that just was formed. Previously, this city was one of the subdistricts from the Malang Regency. In 1993, his status became the Administratif City and changed to the City in October 2001. The change in this status widened the authority of the government to arrange this city. Was not wrong when the government of the city proclaimed the "Batu City" point of view", Agropolitan had nuances of tourism with the community madani", with beauty that was owned by him.Not less than 9 aims of the tour were available in this city. One of them had been famous since long ago was Selecta. To compare, Selecta resembled the aim of the Cibodas tour in West Java. The difference is, Selecta had view that was wider, when you saw to the side of the centre of the city, almost all the city was seen. As you know, the high building still a little and did not obstruct scenery. Apart from Selecta, still was having the nature tour that was other like Songgoriti, Tirta Nirwana and the Bunga Club. Moreover, the lover of the history tour could visit the Suko Temple in the Songgoriti complex. The industrial tour also was available by visiting the small company through to middle that produced the snack and the handicraft. There you could buy by? By with the "competitive price".Not only that, the Batu City also had the East Java recreation park (East Java) Park. As the assumption, East Java Park this resembled Ancol him Jakarta. However, cool air will make you keep to surround each one of his vehicles for a long time. Tired went round the city, certainly you must look for the place spent the night. Don't worry, the motel or the villa with the price 50,000.- per-night until the luxurious hotel often was available. His location could be then chosen, that in the middle of the city and that rather in the city bank. All depended your budget...
