Central Java Landscapes are beautiful. Fields, where farmers grow rice, swamps, and mountains are landscapes that we can find in the Central Java, Indonesia. Fresh water, clean air are still natural here. 

The picture I show you here is a landscape in Ambarawa, Central Java -  Indonesia where I was born and live until now. I took this picture on August 1st, 2010, in the morning when I participated in a healthy jogging contest to commemorate our independence day.
