Traveling to Indonesia as a Muslim

Indonesia is home to the world's largest Muslim population, so mosques, prayer rooms and halal food are part of daily life in most of the country.

Halal-certified restaurants are easy to find in cities like Jakarta, Bandung and Yogyakarta, and local dishes such as nasi goreng, rendang and sate are served everywhere. In Bali, where most people are Hindu, check a restaurant's halal status before you order.
