The place is beautiful. First time you entered, there is an office where you need to report yourself first. Once you're done you can go down the stairs and find the library on the left side while museum on the other side. Same like the entrance, you need to fill up your details first then you are free to roam around in the library. Atmosphere is super relaxing and peaceful. Clean and not smelly. AC and Wifi are there but wifi is slow in my opinion. Anyways, this is a good place where you can get a amazing view, peace, and knowledge at the same place and time.

It's a great experience, there are so many mural, relief, art, and statues describing Soekarno, too bad that the burial of Soekarno closed so I can't get in to see it

We arrived 15 minutes before the venue's scheduled closing time of 20:00 WIB. Overall, the space was surprisingly spacious, had a pleasant chocolate garden vibe, was jam-packed into a cluster the size of a dome, and was participatory.

Worthiest place to spent time with families members. Cozy place, fish everywhere which is my kids love it.
Most important is a mosque, calling prayer every praying time.

There is a lot of facilities such as golf car, pool, cooking class, play ground, gallery, greenhouse, etc. There're many food stall but the taste is so so. The mosque is clean, big and comfortable.

Kampung Coklat is one of the tourist destinations in Blitar Regency. As the name suggested, this place has chocolate as its main theme.
However, KC is also equipped with various children's play rides and meeting places.
However, there are several disadvantages, like parking prices are too expensive.
The Penataran Temple in Blitar, East Java is an ancient Hindu temple complex that boasts well-preserved reliefs and carvings within its gardens. A must-visit for anyone interested in history and culture, the temple offers free entrance tickets while only charging for vehicle parking.

One of the historical places that should be visited while in Blitar, East Java. Free entrance tickets only pay for vehicle parking. There is also provided a visit book. And the typical souvenirs of Penataran Temple are also very affordable. The view is very beautiful, clean and cool.🍃
Nik Alfaini — Google review
It is the biggest temple in East Java. It is used for Hindus devotees to pray. Actually there is no ticket for the visitors. You just need to pay cleaning service fee as you wish. No fixed fee. When I and my students went there, there was no guide available. The security guard just recommended us to read the information board and went around by ourselves. Yeah, it was okay but it would be more interesting if there was a guide that be able to tell you many hidden stories about this Hindu temple.
If you want to have some meals or buy souvenirs here, don't worry. In the outside of the temple, you may find them easily.
Let's visit Candi Penataran!

A small temple complex but quite beautiful as the main structures are well-maintained. The main temple has large reliefs that tell a legend in a similar style as a comic strip. Very interesting to circle the temple while reading. A worthy destination to add to your Blitar trip. Bring a hat as it can be quite hot walking around the area. My only complaint is that the carpark is located a few minutes away from the site. I suppose it's to support the local businesses as souvenir and snack shops are just lined up on the side of the street across from the temple.

Bung Karno's Grave is a mausoleum that serves as a museum showcasing the life of Indonesia's first president, Sukarno, who led the country from 1945 to 1967. The site features various statues and portraits of Sukarno and displays personal belongings used throughout his lifetime. Visitors can also purchase souvenirs and batik items at the stalls located outside the grave exit.
Good place to see the history of bung Karno (Soekarno) President RI Number 1.
It has a Library and hero's tomb for people visiting. the views are a good and convenient place. Tickets are just Rp. 3000,-/people and many souvenirs and snacks for to take home.

At Bung Karno's Tomb, a traveler can feel a thick aura of Nationalism. This city is small, but has a lot of history. Blitar, in the province of East Java, is the location of the Tomb of Bung Karno, Indonesia's first President. In this city there is also the Gebang Palace which is the residence of Sukarno and has now changed its function to a museum. In it are his relics including several cars that were used during his time. The distance from Bung Karno's Tomb to Gebang Palace is only about 2 kilometers. That day I had a guest from Jakarta and I had the opportunity to introduce Bung Karno's Tomb to him for pilgrimage on a blessed Friday. Because we visited on weekdays and during the day, it was not difficult for me to find a parking space. If you come here Saturday or Sunday you have to be a little patient to park the vehicle. But take it easy, the parking attendants are ready to help you. The car parking fee that is charged is IDR 10,000 and this must be paid immediately at the beginning. You will find several fresh flower sellers along the road leading to the tomb. The flowers sold are quite cheap, with only Rp. 10,000 you can get 3 bags of fresh flowers. These flowers will be sown on the graves of Bung Karno, the graves of his father and mother. If your purpose for coming here is just to look around or take pictures, then you can pass this line of flower sellers.

Soekarno or often called Bung Karno was the proclaimer as well as the first President of the Republic of Indonesia. He was buried in downtown Blitar. His grave is next to the graves of his father and mother. Now it is given a joglo roof so it doesn't get rained on and the heat is on, and the pilgrims can pray in peace. The car park is a bit far because the main road has been closed, only motorcycles can pass. the main road is replaced with a paving road so we have to walk from the parking lot.

Blitar Town Square is just a wide field with the big tree in the middle of it. Would be nice and amazing place to go there if there's a big event. Would be just ordinary place and quiet hot if you go there on sunny days with no event. But you could still enjoy the culinary and little attraction there, bringing kid is also a good idea. 👍

Blitar is a city in East Java, Indonesia, about 73 km from Malang and 167 km from Surabaya. I have been in this city few times and always wanted to stop for pictures (not possible due to time). Finally, just done (very shortly). Very attractive, well taken care, clean and safe. Located in the heart of the city, very eye catching surroundings too. I really enjoyed to look a round. The local government of Blitar and their people are doing a good job, keeping their city clean...hopefully I will come back again for exploring more places around , I m sure there are more, here in KOTA BLITAR ( city of Blitar)

The historical artifacts and artwork were presented well. You can really get a sense of what life was like in the house when the President's family lived here. There are many family pictures & a lot of information about the family members. However, I disappointed to see that there hadn't been any maintenance done at this historic site. The building & grounds are not well taken care of. I hope they will make repairs so that future generations can experience the history here.

First Indonesian President, Ir. Soekarno, was lived in here during his childhood. A nice place with tons of historical items of his families. Entrance fee just 2000 rupiahs/person and 4000 rupiahs/vehicle.
The Fish Garden Blitar is a great destination for children to explore and discover various types of fish. Recently, the facilities have been enhanced, including swimming pools, rabbit & turtle feeding activities, a Holland-style windfarm, and a rafting pool. The entrance tickets are reasonably priced at IDR 13K considering the range of offerings available. Initially unaware of its vast size and numerous attractions, visitors can now enjoy an educational experience about fish and farming among other topics.
At first, I never know that the place is large and having many spots. They offer good education about fish, farming, and others. The best thing I love about this place is their rabbits! We can play with the rabbits as our wishes. Definitely a good place for our weekend.

Candi Sawentar, also known as Clungkup Temple, is an ancient Hindu temple built over a millennium ago. It showcases the Singhasari style, adopted from the previous kingdom of Majapahit. This historical site in Sawentar village offers insights into Java's past culture and is remarkably well-preserved. One notable feature is its resemblance to Kidal Temple.
Its majapahit temple, but adopted singhasari style, the kingdom before majapahit. I love this because can see any knowledge about past culture in java.

Bukit Bunda, a charming destination for tourists, offers a delightful ambiance during the evening. The picturesque views and refreshing breeze create a pleasant atmosphere. However, caution is advised due to the presence of numerous stones that may cause potential slips. This attraction boasts food courts, gazebos, flying fox activities, and other outdoor recreational areas. Adequate restroom facilities are also available on-site. Additionally, there is a children-friendly swimming pool that perfectly complements the hot surroundings of this location.
I love the way they handle the place with many new attraction places for kids and family. They offer a package for you to enjoy different thing of Blitar. Even it's 20-30 minutes from to the city, they offer a good way to escape your weekend. The issue is about parking place for motorbike when it's raining.
