Xara Xurf: Bandung, Paris Van Java....

Set 750m above sea level, and protected by a fortress of watchful volcanoes 190km southeast of

Jakarta, BANDUNG is the third largest city in Indonesia. Sundanese culture has remained

intact here since the fifth century when the first Hindu Sundanese settled in this part of West

Java.Modern Bandung's main tourist attraction is nearby Tangkbuhan Prahu volcano.

Well i was in Bandung last year with my family members and it was very exciting and fun. That

was actually my first time going to a volcano. Bandung is shopping heaven (Ladies you HAVE to

visit Bandung for an an awesome shopping time). I was there for a few day and we visited a lot of

the factory outlets, because most of us wanted to go shopping =) and these are some of the

shopping outlets that i must say is a very nice place to shop :

1.Rumah mode ( the best in Bandung and a must visit)

2. Terminal Tas ( lots of branded ladies handbag)

3. Summit

4.Heritage

5. Secret

6. Victoria Factory Outlet

7. Merdeka

and for the males that were there which was my brother, cousin and uncle they were more

interested with the sight seeing and they took a lot of pictures. These are some of the pictures

taken that i want to share :

( this was our hotel where we stayed, it was actually newly opened when we were there and it was a 4 star hotel, which was very comfortable and worth the money i must say )

( this was taken inside the hotel where my cousins put on a show, was actually very shocking because none of us knew that they could actually sing and play the piano.......... well they didnt actually performed , just taken for the sake of photo hehe )

( Pak Anton, our tour guide and he was very helpful especially to us ladies because we keep asking where was the best shopping place and he would bring us to the best factory outlets... thanks pak Anton u were really helpful :) )

( the food that taste go0o0od, the murtabak there is very unique and delicious, a must try! the food we got usually was Sudanese food which was also very tasty, i actually love how they cook the curry there. They have there in bandung 'nasi padang', 'Bagator' and also 'Siamoi' which is Indonesian traditional food)

( Air Ajaib - which was actually Hot spring water, really hot and nice and calming)

( At Tangkuban Perahu Volcano. Tangkuban mean flipped and perahu mean boat. It literally mean the shape of the mountain looks like a flipped boat. As you can see that we are pointing towards the crater.)
