Living in Indonesia | How People Live on Earth's Most Crowded Island | TRAVEL 4K

INDONESIA in 4K — a full travel documentary across 17,508 islands, 718 languages, and one mountain that burns blue at 2 A.M. This Indonesia Travel 4K documentary is a 32-minute journey into real life in Indonesia, from glaciers on the equator to the coral reefs of Raja Ampat.
What is Indonesia really like? In this Travel 4K film you will meet the Minangkabau, the largest matrilineal society on Earth, where daughters inherit the family home. You will stand at the rim of Kawah Ijen, the only volcano on the planet where the flames glow electric blue. You will watch an entire island switch off its lights for 24 hours of complete silence, and meet the woman who left New York to build bamboo houses in Bali.
We also cover the practical side of travel in Indonesia: daily costs, the best time to visit, visa on arrival, and the one day each year when the whole island of Bali closes.
Best Travel Documentary is a Travel 4K series about real people in real places — no clickbait, no rushing. If you enjoy long-form travel documentary and Travel 4K films about culture, food, and everyday life, this Indonesia Travel 4K journey was made for you.
