With its abundant natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant culture, Blitar is more than just a place to pass by-it is a captivating destination to explore for 2-3 days.
As a region nestled within the Ring of Fire, Blitar boasts a magnificent and active volcano, Mount Kelud. This is where the earliest civilizations in Blitar emerged,giving rise to the construction of numerous temples. These temples served not only as sacred sites for the kings but also as places of worship for the deity ruling over Kelud.
Its fertile lands, nurtured by volcanic ash, have also given rise to large-scale plantations of coffee, tea, and cocoa. Moreover, in the southern region, Blitar is renowned for its breathtaking beaches. Blitar, the Volcano Civilization, is a hidden gem that remains relatively undiscovered by tourists.
