Malang is a town in East Java much favored for its cool temperature and beautiful mountainous nature. Malang was where Dutch planters and civil servants used to retire until the early 1900s. The old town is dotted with Dutch colonial era houses, small antique shops, old Chinese-Indonesian temple etc. Malang is surrounded by apple and tea plantations, botanical garden, and hundreds-years-old temple ruins. It is also an ideal base to explore the beautiful volcanic Mount Bromo, the hidden, exotic countryside beauty of East Java, as well as beautiful, unspoilt white-sand southern beaches.

Hotel Tugu Malang is a must-see destination by itself. Located right at the heart of the old city centre, it is an elegant mansion that tells the romantic stories of the island of Java. The proprietors’ collection of hundreds and hundreds of antiques tastefully adorn every corner of the hotel, walking guests through the heritages of the Dutch colonial era, the gradual fusion of the Indonesian and the Chinese cultures over many centuries as well as the humble beauty of traditional Indonesian masterpieces. Each of its 49 rooms and suites is designed with individual character; some have been dedicated as tributes to Indonesian art heroes of the past. Map Overview
