Wonogiri

Wonogiri is a town and regency in the southeastern part of Central Java. It is flanked by two provinces, namely Yogyakarta and East Java.

Understand
The origin of the word Wonogiri itself comes from the Javanese wana (pad/forest/rice field) and giri (mountain/mountains). This name is very apt to describe the condition of the Wonogiri Regency area which is indeed mostly in the form of rice fields, forests, and mountains.

Get around
It is more flexible to go to tourist attractions by car or motorbike.

 * Caves - Most of Wonogiri's area is rocky and hilly due to its location on the Sewu highlands. Since these highlands are of the karst type, many caves can easily be found in Wonogiri Regency and at least 41 caves have been discovered so far starting with the famous, at Pracimantoro,  at Giritontro,  at Bulukerto and including many unnamed caves all over the regency.
