"Eid is coming soon, many of us will be traveling back to our hometowns. Wow, it must be really exciting to gather with the extended family in a festive atmosphere. But I definitely want to go out and explore too."

Another meaning of the name Tumpak Sewu is tumpak (to rise) and sewu (a thousand). So Tumpak Sewu means this waterfall looks as if it is rising or resting on the wall or cliff of the waterfall.
