Once the capital of Indonesia, Bukittinggi is currently one of the largest cities in West Sumatra. At an altitude of 900 m (2952 ft), the city’s climate is cool and refreshing, making it a perfect getaway. A large part of the city has been designated as protected forests. Since the volcanic mountains of Mount Marapi and Mount Singgalang surround it, Bukittinggi makes an excellent base for trekking. The city also showcases lookalikes of some of the greatest wonders in the world! Most visitors would flock to Ngarai Sianok Canyon, which is arguably Indonesia’s version of the Grand Canyon of Arizona. You may also visit Janjang Koto Gadang, which gives off similar vibes as the Great Wall of China.
