8 Reviews Visited Bandung in early March 2008. The weather in this town is cooling which sits about 700m above sea level. Went on a day trip to Gunung Tangkuban Perahu(also known as the Mountain of the Overturned Boat). If you are into volcanoes and trekking then this is closest you can get to a live...
7 Reviews It's actually a resort...u can choose to stay here or just take a one day trip since it's also at the same area as Tangkuban Parahu. There's a few ponds here where u can swim or just dip in your feet into the hot water. The place is is quite busy on weekends. The place is really well kept....
9 Reviews I have just finished my small research about old streets and buildings in Bandung. I found that Bandung is one of the richest collection of Art Deco buildings in the world. The Dutch started to build these buildings in early 1900s and they are still there in Bandung. The Oldest house I found in...
6 Reviews Visit Tengkuban Perahu located at Lembang abt 45 mins drive from Bandung city. Enterance abt RP10,000. In this area u'll find the famous Kawah Ratu and Kawah Domas.

7 Reviews Juanda Forest Park or Dago Pakar. The official name is Taman Hutan Raya ir. H. Juanda. It is a forest park, serves as a water reservoir for the city. There are some interesting parks for children or to have a picnic there. There are also some old World War II caves during the Japanese era. We take a...
2 Reviews Kampung Daun is located up higher from Bandung downtown. It's an eating place designed as a 'kampung' or small village beside a stream. You can choose to sit in one of the booths for 'lesehan' where you sit down without chairs (more or less like Japanese traditional way), or sit on chairs, while...
6 Reviews Bandung is a town full of odd buildings with lots of interesting architectural details. This building for instance has a pink bay window. A pity we had to rush out after dark and couldn't spend more time here!

The Summit: Factory outlet too
Arfah Says: The Summit, located at Jl. Riau...just like other factory outlet sells the same thing. However, it's still worth the visit because different factory outlets may have different brands, quality and also style. Some may be very up to date...some may not. So, it's best to browse...
ashafruddin Says: Visit Ciwidey about 2 1/2 hour drive south of Bandung. The winding road takes you through small villages, padi fields and as you approach the final destination are small plots of strawberry farms. The park will charge a nominal entrance fee and you need to drive up for...
