Perched at 2,000m (6,562ft) above sea level, Dieng Plateau is one of the coolest destinations in Indonesia, and not just weather-wise. Other than the sweeping mountain view of jungles and distant villages, this highland also has a multi-coloured lake, a hot spring and ancient Hindu temples. Once a year, tourists flock to the spot for a much-anticipated festival that includes traditional rituals, performances, and jazz above the clouds.
