The dynamic Indonesia welcomes all tourists and travel freaks to its awe-inspiring, scintillating \"city of heroes\", Surabaya, the second-largest metropolitan of the nation and the capital city of the East Java provincial reigns. Since its days of exaltation in 1293, when the city\'s first king Raden Wijaya emerged victorious against the paramount power of Chinese troops, Surabaya has remained a landmark name in the history of Indonesia. Loaded with attractions galore, Surabaya is a mélange of history, customs and modish urban culture, while being lauded simultaneously for its spectacular natural beauty and bounty. from: http://ezinearticles.com/?Destination-Surabaya---An-Indonesian-Potpourri-of-Nature,-Ethnicity,-and-Urbanity&id=6439337
