The Busung Desert, which is referred to as the Bintan Desert, features stunning white sand that glimmers under the sun’s rays. Its appearance is quite comparable to the various hilly deserts found in the Middle East.Originally, this location wasn’t a popular destination for tourists. Similar to Blue Lake, it was once a bauxite mine that gradually transformed into a breathtaking desert landscape.Visitors can unwind and capture amazing photos here since the scenery is perfect for Instagram. You can experience a taste of the Middle Eastern vibe without having to travel there directly.
