Tourists enjoy the charm of the morning mist on Mount Bromo, East Java, Indonesia.

Summary[edit]

Description
Bahasa Indonesia: Wisatawan menikmati pesona kabut pagi hari di Gunung Bromo, Jawa Timur, Indonesia.
English: Tourists enjoy the charm of the morning mist on Mount Bromo, East Java, Indonesia.

Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (Indonesian: Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru; abbreviated as TNBTS) is a national park located in East Java, Indonesia, to the east of Malang and Lumajang, to the south of Pasuruan and Probolinggo, and to the southeast of Surabaya, the capital of East Java. It is the only conservation area in Indonesia that has a sand sea, the Tengger Sand Sea (Indonesian: Laut Pasir Tengger), across which is the caldera of an ancient volcano (Tengger) from which four new volcanic cones have emerged. This unique feature covers a total area of 5,250 hectares at an altitude of about 2,100 meters (6,900 ft). The massif also contains the highest mountain in Java, Mount Semeru (3,676 meters (12,060 ft)), four lakes and 50 rivers. It is named after the Tengger tribe. The explosion of the volcano that created the caldera, happened ca. 45.000 years ago, in an event similar to the Krakatau eruption.

The Tengger Sand Sea has been protected since 1919. The Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park was declared a national park in 1982.

Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park has at least 38 species of protected wildlife consisting of 24 species of birds, 11 species of mammals, 1 species of reptile and 2 species of insects. Among several types of rare and endangered animals are the Javanese Eagle (Nisaetus bartelsi), Javan Leopard (Panthera pardus), and Javan Lutung (Trachypithecus auratus).
