Surabaya

Must-see attractions include the Heroes Monument (Tugu Pahlawan), the House of Sampoerna, the Submarine Monument (Monumen Kapal Selam), and the Cheng Hoo Mosque. Don't miss the opportunity to explore the local markets and sample the diverse street food.

The best time to visit Surabaya is during the dry season, from May to September, when the weather is generally sunny and less humid. However, Surabaya is a year-round destination, and you can still enjoy your visit during the rainy season (October to April), although you should be prepared for occasional showers.

Surabaya offers a wide variety of culinary delights. You can find traditional Javanese dishes like rawon (beef black soup), soto ayam (chicken soup), and rujak cingur (a unique salad with cow's snout). Street food is abundant and delicious, offering everything from satay to seafood. There are also many modern restaurants serving international cuisine.
