  • Indonesia has roughly 400 volcanoes, and about 130 of them are active.
  • Around 160 relief panels on the hidden foot of Borobudur were covered by an added base. They were rediscovered in 1885.
  • Male Komodo dragons can reach about 3 metres and 136 kilograms, while females are smaller, at roughly 2 to 2.5 metres.
  • The Toba eruption about 74,000 years ago left a caldera now filled by Lake Toba. Samosir Island in its centre has risen at least 450 metres since then.
