Influences from Chinese, Middle Eastern, Malay, Indian and Polynesian cuisines find their way into Indonesia's kitchens. While rice is the most popular staple, noodles are also very popular. Chicken, goat and beef are the main meats in this predominantly Muslim country, although pork is also plentiful in Christian areas and seafood dominates coastal menus. And there is no shortage of vegetarian alternatives either.
Indonesia's ethnic, cultural and linguistic diversity is correspondingly great - more than 500 languages and dialects are spoken by its 275 million people. The majority of the population is Muslim, while the Hindu religion predominates on Bali.
Approximately 275 million people live in the island nation. Since its earliest history, Indonesians have always been communal. Even in modern environments like the office workplace and modern communities, you will see the warmth and friendliness of Indonesians. From a child's first step on the ground to certain months of pregnancy, many cultures in Indonesia have special ceremonies for the smallest milestones. Many cultures also make a big deal out of life events like weddings and funerals, mixing them with fascinating traditional customs and celebrations.
Jungles, volcanoes, pristine beaches: If you love wild nature, Indonesia is the next destination you should visit! Those who decide to organize a trip to Indonesia are usually fascinated by the wild nature, untouched forests, rich flora, diverse fauna, beaches, waterfalls ... If you are looking for an escape from the routine of everyday life, out of the smog and the gray of winter, well, this magnificent island state has a lot to offer.
