A COLD DAY AT TANGKUBAN PERAHU
It was a great experience at Tangkuban Parahu Mountain since it was my first time visiting it. I arrived at 8 am and it was not that crowded because it was weekdays and most of the people were working, the weather was clear but freezing. I liked the view because I could see the crater clearly. There were a lot of food and souvenirs there but be careful to ask the price first and compare it with the other shops. The ticket price was around 30K Rupiah and it was worth it. the air was clear and the people there were so friendly, there was also tourist guides if you need them, they will tell you everything they know

TANGKUBAN PERAHU - MOUNTAIN
Tangkubanperahu Bandung is a few of the many favorite tourist destinations in Lembang which are owned by Bandung Regency. Bandung mountain tour is located in the province of West Java, where 20 KM to the north of the city of Bandung. When heading to the tourist location, visitors will be presented with lush pine trees and views of the gardens around it. According to the administration, the active volcano Lembang Bandung has a height of about 2,084 meters. The shape of one of Indonesia's legendary mountains is similar to Stratovulcano which has an eruption center that always moves from east to west. When a volcano erupts, the resulting rock is mostly lava, sulfur, sulfur and minerals. but if the mountain is not active then only sulfur vapor is emitted. The existence of Mount Tangkuban Perahu Bandung is a blessing in itself for local residents, because more and more hot springs have sprung up, such as the Cipanas Nagrak Kancah waterfall, Bandung, which takes springs from this active mountain in Bandung. The tourist area area, until now managed by the Bandung regency government, is a forestry company. During the day the temperature in the mountain area is around 17 degrees Celsius, while at night the temperature reaches 2 degrees Celsius. Mount Tangkuban Perahu Bandung has several Diptrocat Bukit forest areas, namely Montane forest, Ericaceous forest, Upper Dipterocarp forest and mountain forest. In this Bandung tourist spot, at least you can find three Tangkuban Perahu craters which are quite popular, namely Upas crater, Ratu crater and Domas crater. The craters occurred due to the magnitude of the volcanic explosion several years ago. Among the 3 craters, the most popular among visitors is the Ratu Crater. Right on the side of the road there is a barrier in the form of jelly, in order to maintain the safety of visitors.

It's beautiful place and listen to the legend shared by the locals. They will guide you throughout your journey at Tangkuban Perahu, and don't forget to tip them! A must go if you come visit Bandung. We took out our drone to play it but was stop by the ranger and wanted to charge us SGD$100.
Tip: Sneak and use your drone somewhere deeper in the forest area to get a quick shot of the place! Risky, but worth it.
Visit the cave nearby too. 30mins hike. It's pretty spooky, though.
Absolutely thrilling experience to be at the very edge of an active crater.
Lots of sellers to sell you junk, best to avoid. But well worth it in my opinion.
Not the sort of thing one can do often.
If you love nature and want to see the awesomeness of a volcano, must do experience!!

Last but not least I would also suggest you to visit the Orchid Forest Cikole. It is the home to over 20,000 orchids. We explored activities like zip-lining, walking on suspension bridges, and enjoying the forest atmosphere. We walked through the forest, see every type of orchid in the garden 🪴

The volcanoes in Bandung, Indonesia, are really photogenic!
The volcanic lakes in Bandung, Indonesia, are like dazzling jewels nestled among the verdant mountains. The lake surface is as calm as a mirror, reflecting the surrounding peaks and blue sky, offering an incomparably beautiful view. The water is crystal clear to the bottom, with a faint blue sheen that is enchanting. Here, it feels like being in a fairyland, where the soul is utterly relaxed and purified.

Tangkuban Perahu is an active volcano, situated 30 km north of the city of Bandung in the direction of Lembang. It is the only volcanic mountain in Indonesia that you can drive up to its outer rim. Mount Tangkuban Perahu has a distinctive shape; it looks like an “overturned boat”. Legend has it that this volcano was created by the anger of a man named Sangkuriang, who was promised a marriage by his own birth mother Dayang Sumbi if he can succeed in the challenges she gave him. The wrath that emerged from being cheated on, knowing that it is Dayang Sumbi herself that betrays her own promise, made him kick the boat he made himself, turning it into a volcano named Tangkuban Perahu. Here you will be greeted by sulfur fumes which the crater continues to emit although the volcano is not active.

Tangkuban parahu an active volcano
#wheretogo #Bandung #Tangkubanperahu #trip2023
The name Tangkuban Perahu is taken from the shape it look like an overturned boat. Local people relate it with the legend of Sangkuriang and Dayang Sumbi.
Tangkuban perahu is still an active volcano.
Three main crater are Kawah Ratu, Kawah Domas and Kawah Upas. Kawah Domas is open to visitors, the other two craters are not, because of the frequent eruptions occur and produce poisonous gases.
From Bandung to the mount of Tangkuban Perahu by car. We rent a car with driver about IND 600K perday. About 30km from Bandung city and takes about 90 minutes on weekdays.
Entry ticket INR 20k for local and foreign visitor INR 200k/person.
Suggested going early in the morning, in order to avoid the mist which tends to come in during early afternoon.
When the mist come it will block the views of crater.

Tangkuban Perahu
Tangkuban Perahu, Indonesia. Satu tempat yang cukup indah dan memukau tiap kali saya melihatnya. Cuaca di atas sana agak sejuk kerana di atas bukit/gunung.
Perjalanan ke sana saya kira mengambil masa dalam 30-60 minit dari hotel, saya ingat-ingat lupa kerana dah lama. Perjalanan amat lancar tetapi perlu tempuhi sedikit kesesakan lalu lintas di beberapa kawasan.
Sebelum sampai ke tempat ini, saya telah berhenti sebentar di Farmhouse Bandung. Boleh mencuba susu yang segar dan juga mengambil gambar di sekitarnya kerana di tempat itu seperti berada di pengembaraan filem Hobit.
Terima kasih kerana sudi membaca kisah ringkas saya ini.

Tangkuban Perahu Volcano
Tangkuban Perahu is located in West Java province. It’s a very beautiful place, well maintained and aimed to cater to everyone in the family. The smoking volcano crater is truly a sight. There are lots of space to walk around and explore the scenes. Beautiful mountains surrounding the place also very photogenic place for instagram. When you get to the crater, you will be able to soak your feet into the small crater, and it feels so nice and warm. Believe it or not, people often also bring some eggs to boil in it! 🥚 So, when you’re around, you definitely must visit this volcano 🌋 ⛅️🌟 #solstice #urbanexplorer #summervacation #hikingtrails #volcano
