The Pine Forest at Puncak Becici recently made headlines when Obama and his family visited Yogyakarta during their holiday in Indonesia. On top of its wooden deck at Puncak Becici – or Becici Peak - you can enjoy the view over Mt Merapi, Mt Sindoro, the Menoreh hills and the Parangtritis beach facing the Indian Ocean, from afar. Situated in a conservation forest named Becici Asri, the peak is a romantic site between the pines for couples to seek the magical colors of sunset.
