Tour of Bandung '19

Bandung in Indonesia is a pleasant city with a cool climate year round. It is much less crowded than Jakarta and provides a respite from the hustle and bustle of city life.

From the airport, I took a Grab ride to my award-winning hostel, Zenrra Backpacker!
  
Highly recommended for a budget stay!





The hostel is located in a narrow alley in a residential area. My room is actually located a few houses down from the administrative house. Though it may appear deserted, the area is safe day and night to walk around.

After putting down my bags, I booked another Grab ride to the shopping mall nearby.

Featuring a walk of fame at the rooftop!

It is Chinese New Year holiday, so there are festivities such as lion dance. 

On the second day in Bandung, I arranged a tour with the hostel for a full day trip around Bandung.

First stop is the Kawah Putih. All tourists have to transfer to these vehicles for the last mile journey to the tourist attraction.


Crater pool 😀

There is a chance to ride a horse too at an affordable rate.

Next stop is the scenic plantation.

Lunch with a great view !

An enjoyable trip to Bandung!
