Indonesia Trip!!


Location: Bandung, Garut, Jakarta
Date: 2/6/12 - 6/6/12 (5D 4N)

wohooo~ Summer break starts and so do my summer holiday! =D

We took an early flight to Bandung and we reached there around 9am.
The whether there is quite chilling and cool!
Bandung is the capital of West Java province in Indonesia. It is also the most popular holiday and shopping destination other than Jakarta. It has good value of textile and fashion products among Malaysians and Singaporeans.
We visited quite a lot of places included "jeans street", Trans Studio Theme Park, factory outlet, volcanic mountain and hot spring resort. The best attraction and experience would be watching a cultural workshop- "Saung Angklung Udjo (SAU)" It is a one stop cultural workshop which consists of: performances, bamboo handicraft center, and bamboo instrument workshop. They teaches us how to play with bamboo music instrument and let us experience it our-self! This workshop attracts a lot of foreign visitors to come and visit! A really good experience
We stayed 2 night at the Ibis hotel which really near to the Trans Studio Theme Park!

The next stop is Garut and Jakarta. Almost all the pictures below summarized my trip at Indonesia!
