industries andsources of foreign exchange.In 1989,over a million and a half foreigntourists arrived in Indonesia and the number seems likely to continue torise.2 The present boom began during the 1970s,after President Suharto'sNew Order government was able to provide the security and the facilitieswhich had largely been lacking under Sukarno's Guided Democracy,butIndonesia's history as a tourist destination goes back much earlier.Datingthe precise start of modern international tourism in Indonesia is as much aproblem of definition as of information.Tourism at its broadest is travelfor pleasure,but many early travellers who were not tourists none the lesstook pleasure in their journeying.Rijklof van Goens,who visited the courtof Mataram in Central Java in the middle of the seventeenth century,brokehis journey to climb to the summit of Mount Merbabu,purely because itwas so beautiful.3 The same joie de vivre can be found in the writings ofthe nineteenth-century naturalist Frans Junghuhn and many other earlywriters.Tourism,therefore,is perhaps best characterized not just by theelement of pleasure but also by a loss of independence.In exchange foraccess,the tourist surrenders autonomy whether by joining a tour group orsimply by following a guidebook which maps out one or more beatenpaths.If we can take guidebooks and tour groups as the key signs ofmodern tourism,then we can date international tourism in the Indies toaround the beginning of the twentieth century.  \nThe inclusion of the Netherlands Indies in international tourist itinerarieswas part of a general expansion of Western tourism to the rest of the worldaround the turn of the century.During the nineteenth century,the industrialrevolution in Europe had led both to rising incomes and to a
