De Paviljoen Bandung

Bandung is the capital city of the West Java province of Indonesia. Located on the western highland of Java island, it has one of the coolest climates compared to other provincial capitals in Indonesia, situated 708 meters above sea level, approximately 145 kilometres southeast of Jakarta. Bandung lies in a river basin surrounded by volcanic mountains that provide a natural defense system, which was the primary reason for the Dutch East Indies government's plan to move the capital from Batavia to Bandung.

Bandung is known for its stunning natural scenery, vibrant culture, and delicious cuisine. From lush greenery to majestic mountains, the city is a nature lover's paradise. You can hike through the picturesque landscapes of Tangkuban Perahu and Kawah Putih, or explore the lush greenery of Dago Pakar. The city is also home to several waterfalls, including the stunning Curug Cimahi and Curug Malela.

Apart from its natural beauty, Bandung is also famous for its vibrant culture and traditions. The city is home to several museums and art galleries that showcase the rich history and culture of Indonesia.
