BANDUNG CITY is the capital of WEST JAVA. It is the third largest city in INDONESIA in terms of population.  It is about 140 kilometers southeast of JAKARTA (Capital of Indonesia) or about 2 and half hours land travel time. But unknown to many, BANDUNG is considered the PARIS IN JAVA, INDONESIA...

BANDUNG is the favorite weekend and vacation destination for the people who are residing and working in JAKARTA because of its cooler temperature compared to other parts of INDONESIA.  It is 2,520 feet above sea level. Hotel accommodation in BANDUNG CITY is very affordable. We stayed overnight at ASTON TROPICANA HOTEL which has very strategic location if you want to go on shopping due to its proximity to FACTORY OUTLETS, MALLS and STORES selling various products. A perfect place for LOVERS to share unforgettable private moments!

It has also numerous awesome restaurants like the GUMILANG, STONE CAFE and RAJA SUNDA where we tasted the best INDONESIAN dishes including the most spicy food. GUMILANG RESTAURANT has a garden dining area at the top of a towering building. STONE CAFE has an splendid ambiance overlooking the whole of BANDUNG CITY complemented by a LIVE BAND. The RAJA SUNDA restaurant has a welcoming ambiance for tired guests after a long trip from JAKARTA. Another perfect places for LOVERS to create remarkable moments!

For my 2 days and 1 night stay in BANDUNG CITY, I believe that I only explored a very small portion of the the CITY OF LOVE in INDONESIA. For that very short period of time, it provided me the glimpse of the LOVABLE city that already captured my HEART and IMAGINATION.
