B29-viewpoint
The viewpoint B29 is less known compared to Mt. Pananjakan, but gets more and more visitors. It sits at an altitude of 2,900 meters above sea level and is the highest peak at the rim of the caldera in which one can find Mt. Bromo. This peak is situated southeast of Mt. Bromo in the village Argosari Senduro, about 40 km from the small city Lumajang, within the National Park Bromo-Tengger-Semeru.
The stunning scenery with the cold air and typical plants for the highland plateau make the viewpoint a very interesting attraction. If you look in the opposite direction of Mt. Bromo you will see Mt. Semeru. One can find a typical mountain village atmosphere with vegetables such as cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and red pepper on the hillsides. The terracing of the fields is neat and organizes a beautiful attraction.
