The abandoned bunker tells a powerful story of past eruptions and is one of the best viewpoints. 🛑 Tebing Gendol (Gendol Cliff) This lava cliff is the result of past eruptions. It's an active site where you’ll see locals mining sand and stones – a fascinating look into how the volcanic environment supports daily livelihoods. 🛑 Museum “Sisa Hartaku” (My Remaining Belongings) Emotional and informative.
