TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - MotoGP 2025 will be held again at the Mandalika International Circuit, Central Lombok, Indonesia, on October 3-5, 2025. This prestigious motorcycle racing event is expected to attract thousands of spectators from both domestic and international locations.
In addition to witnessing the performances of world-class racers, visitors can also appreciate the beauty of the surrounding tourist attractions in Mandalika. Here are five tourist destinations that are worth a visit before or after watching the MotoGP.
5 Tourist Attractions in Mandalika
1. Bukit Merese Hill
Located in the Jalan Kuta Lombok area, Bukit Merese is one of the iconic tourist attractions in Mandalika. From the peak, visitors are presented with a breathtaking panorama of vast green grasslands and a beautiful view of Tanjung Aan Beach in the distance. In the evening, tourists can enjoy a sunset view from the top of the hill.
2. Kuta Mandalika Beach
Kuta Mandalika Beach is located in the Mandalika Special Economic Zone, Pujut District. This beach offers a different atmosphere compared to Kuta Beach in Bali. Tourists can stroll along the white sand, enjoy the sound of the waves, and take in the view of Mandalika Hill to the west. In addition to swimming and sunbathing, visitors can take photos, enjoy local cuisine, and shop for souvenirs at the modern tourist facilities around the beach.
3. Sade Village
For those who want to experience the local culture, Sade Village in Pujut District is the perfect choice. This village is inhabited by Sasak people who still maintain their ancestral traditions. Traditional houses made of natural materials, a simple way of life, and the unique Sasak woven fabric are its main attractions. Visitors can even try the weaving process, from spinning yarn to adding colors. In addition to fabric, visitors can purchase handmade crafts, such as bracelets and necklaces, as well as other trinkets, as souvenirs from Lombok.
4. Mangku Sakti Waterfall
Located at the foot of Mount Rinjani in East Lombok, the Mangku Sakti Waterfall boasts natural beauty. The water comes from the Kokoq Puteq spring in Danau Segara Anak on Mount Rinjani, as reported by Traveloka. That's why its water has a turquoise green color, making it a unique attraction. Tourists can follow a trekking route to reach the waterfall, which offers views of the savanna and unique rocks.
5. Pusuk Sembalun Tourist Park
If you want to enjoy the fresh air in the highlands, Pusuk Sembalun Tourist Park can be a choice. Located in Sembalun Village, East Lombok, this area is at an altitude of about 900 meters above sea level. Pusuk itself means summit in the Sasak language.
As reported by Atourin, Pusuk Sembalun Tourist Park is the best place to take in the beauty of Lombok from above. The selfie spots in Pusuk Sembalun offer captivating views. This tourist location is at an altitude of 1,250 meters above sea level, providing a refreshing atmosphere.
