The 5 Best Things to do in Bandung
1. spend an hour at the bandung geology museum.
Singapore has amazing museums and it would be great if Indonesia had more… Which is why I’m happy to place the Bandung Geology Museum at the top of the list of things to do in Bandung. The Museum has interesting exhibitions, reconstructed skeletons of Wooly Mammoths and even the bones of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. If you have a family with young kids then the Bandung Geology Museum is a must.
2. Cycle Off Road At The Lodge Maribaya
The Lodge Maribaya is an outdoor adventure theme park with zipline bikes, where you cycle on a cable strung between two posts over the forest, a Sky Tree, hot air balloon rides and a lot more besides. It’s like a massive playground for kids of any age. There’s a funky lodge onsite where you can stay. Check out their Instagram feed to for more information about the park.
3. Treat Yourself at a Boutique Shop
One of the best things to do in Bandung is shopping. There are lots of great stores and up and coming fashion designers established around the city. I would like to suggest a store called Widely Project. The store promotes fashion lines from young Indonesian designers. It is a great place to go to find stylish, well-designed clothing. Here’s a link to their Instagram feed . For cheaper clothing check out the Heritage Factory Outlet and the Rumah Mode Factory Outlet.
4. Enjoy the Cafes
There are tons of Coffee Shops in Bandung. Cireng Armor Coffee on Tahura, Taman Hutan Raya, is one of the best places to go for a coffee in Bandung. The coffee shop serves typical Sundanese snack (you have to try the Cireng with Rujak sauce) and delicious coffee. There is an outdoor garden set in the middle of pine trees, which gives the coffee shop a relaxing ambiance. Do come early as it gets busy from 11 am onwards.
Of course Cireng Armor is not the only coffee shop in the city. Some other nice cafes include Lawangwangi, has an Art Gallery a Café and a design space that showcases exhibitions by local designers, Warkop Modjok (Pinus Raya street, Isola, Sukasari, Kota Bandung), Jack Runner Roastery (Ciumbuleuit No.42, Hegarmanah, Cidadap, Kota Bandung), Blue Doors (Gandapura No.61, Kota Bandung) and Lacamera Coffee (Naripan No.79, Kb. Pisang, Sumur Bandung, Kota Bandung).
5. Stay Overnight at a Unique Hotel
A visit to Bandung would not be complete without an overnight stay at an amazing hotel. Luckily there are plenty to choose from that fit almost every budget. Top of the list are the Kamojang Green Hotel & Resort and Sapulidi Sawah Cafe Resort & Gallery , which are both based around natural lakes. Vila Air Natural Resort meanwhile offers an equally relaxing experience in a luxurious setting.
6. Visit Kawah Putih
The turquoise and slightly white-ish volcanic lake of Kawah Putih Bandung is one of the best things to do in Bandung. The volcanic lake is just outside of the city. It’s normally pretty busy, especially over the weekends, but you can find some private spots. To get a bit of privacy walk along the path with the Kawah Putih Lake on your right hand hand side.
Ideas for Things to do in Bandung
7. explore dusun bambu.
Dusun Bambu is an open planned shopping complex set in a forest with a park, shops, restaurants and apartments. I visited Burangrang, which is the largest restaurant in the complex. The food and drinks here were really tasty. On top of that the venue was fun, with an interesting interior and exterior design. The site is on the outskirts of Bandung in Lembang. Don’t miss to walk around the area when you come to the complex.
8. Have an Adventure at Tebing Gunung Hawu
Tebing Gunung Hawu is a limestone hill in Padalarang, West Bandung. There are several limestone peaks between gaping chasms, where slack lines and even a hammock are setup for you to practice on and relax. With a beautiful view this is one of the best things do in Bandung for lovers of the great outdoors.
9. Eat Some Delicious Food
There are few better things to do in Bandung than eat a meal at a restaurant with a view. My favourite restaurant is Lisung Boutique Restaurant. The restaurant overlooks Bandung with panoramic views over the city. It’s the kind of place that you want to visit with a group of friends or big families. The atmosphere is always lively and the food and drinks are tasty and reasonably priced. Make sure to visit in the late afternoon or early evening for views of the twinkling lights of Bandung.
Another of my favourites is ‘The Restaurant.’ The name is a bit pretentious, but the food is really tasty. The chef offers Western and Asian dishes, which can be ordered from the menu. They also run themed buffets evenings, like the Ribs Buffet Dinner. It’s well worth a visit.
10. Taman Wisata Maribaya
Taman Wisata Maribaya is a park on the outskirts of Bandung. It’s a nice place to escape the city with your family. There are paths crossing through the forest, bridges over waterfalls and plenty of green open space. It’s the perfect for people who like long treks through the countryside.
11. Take the Bandros Bus Tour
The Bandros Bus (the name comes from a traditional Sundanese snack) is a double decker tour bus that was launched by the mayor of Bandung in 2014. The vintage style double decker bus are modelled on the open top tour buses you find in London. The bus stops at hotels and tourist attractions around the city. Tickets cost Rp 25,000 per person and the bus can hold up to 30 passengers.
12. Eiger Flagship Store
The Eiger Flagship Store on Jl. Setiabudhi is a fun place to spend a few hours. The store was founded in 1993 and specialises in outdoor adventure equipment. While the owners would like you to shop, there are plenty of other activities to do around the store. Top of the list is the huge climbing wall. There are also slack lines setup where you can practice your balance.
13. Be a Cowboy at De’Ranch, Lembang
De’Ranch Lembang is a family friendly Western themed ranch on the outskirts of Bandung. Visitors have the chance to dress up as cowboys and engage in cowboy themed activities like riding horses. As you’d expect, this is more of a destination for domestic tourists than visitors from outside the country. Still, it’s a fun place to visit if you’re looking for something a bit different.
14. Watch a Performance of Saung Angklung Udjo
Saung Angkling Udjo is a performance venue, handicraft centre and instrument workshop focused on the Saung, a Sundanese instrument. The instrument workshop is one of the nice things to do in Bandung with young kids. If you have the chance attend one of the evening performances. The performance by the kids band is really impressive.
15. Spend a Day at Trans Studio Bandung
Trans Studio Bandung is a family focused indoor theme park for families with young kids and even teenagers. There are roller coasters, waltzers and other fun rides to try. The Studio is part of a larger site that includes a five story shopping centre with cinema and a luxury 5 star hotel .

There’s always time to go 😉

Adis takdos travel comedy blogger http://www.whateverbackpacker.com
I went to college in Bandung, but I didn’t explore the city as much as I should have. I was too complacent with places I was familiar with — I went to the same canteen over and over again, for instance. It’s nice to read your perspective on Bandung, Firsta.
Hahaha Bama.. that is exactly what is happening to me right know in Goa. I’ve been here for 3 weeks and yet done that much. Just going out to the same restaurants, cafes, and beaches. Not really ‘exploring’ just recharging my batteries… 😀 Thanks for stopping by.
I always love bandung. Seperti yang tertulis di dinding di kota itu, “Bandung bagiku bukan sekadar geografis.” 😀
So much great food in Bandung … can’t wait until I can make a return visit!
Yes! I can’t wait to visit Bandung again! Hopefully soon!
Hi Firsta, Apple here again. I just want to ask if you have any vehicle for hire (including driver) in Bandung. Because I am planning to go there next year. Btw, I checked out the resorts that you’ve recommended and they look interesting. If I decide to stay on one of those resorts, how accessible is it to go to other places? Most importantly from the airport to and fro. Hoping to hear you insights . Thanks again.
nice review about my city…

Top Things to Do in Bandung for Nature Lovers
![bandung tourist places things to do in Bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/25-683x1024.jpg)
If you love nature, the countryside, and the great outdoors, Bandung offers the perfect escape as you head towards Lembang for a quick city break. Bandung outdoor activities are a plenty and you will be spoilt for choice and running short on time if this is your cuppa.
Hiking is surely one of the top things to do on your Bandung trip if you want to enjoy surreal views, fresh air and loads of nature. Depending on how much time you have there are several excellent hiking spots in Bandung to try.
Hike to Sunset Point of Tebing Keraton
![bandung tourist places The melting sun set - Clicked from Tebing Keraton](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/IMG_3732-1024x682.jpg)
One of the best places to visit in Bandung for hiking is undoubtedly the sunset sunrise point – Tebing Keraton ( aka Keraton Cliff ). While I was living in Bandung, almost 5 years ago, this little gem of a place suddenly popped out of nowhere as a social media hotspot. Suddenly, all youngsters were posting about the epic sunsets at Tebing Keraton. Obviously, I had to go see what the hype was all about.
![bandung tourist places hiking bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/IMG_3751-1024x682.jpg)
It’s a short 25 min hike from the parking lot and you can climb down to any of the cliff’s offering “on the edge” views of the Dago forest below. Remember there are no ropes, harnesses or any sort of security personnel on the spot – so be careful while you hedge out for those Instagrammable shots.
Gawk at the Crater of Tangkuban Perahu
This stunning active volcano is pretty much on everyone’s Bandung bucket list and one of the prime Bandung attractions. Located just 30 kms from the North towards Lembang, it’s the perfect day trip from Bandung or even a picnic spot to enjoy with family or friends.
![bandung tourist places hiking tangkuban perahu](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/11006435_10152519798136920_3000359410412120499_n-1.jpg)
I went there several times to gawk at the smoky crater and enjoy amazing weather up in the mountains. You can even choose to hike Tangkuban Perahu volcano – I have heard it is arduous and honestly never tried it myself. The 2-hour hike does reward you with a refreshing hot water spring but a lot of sulfur fumes as well.
![bandung tourist places Tangkuban perahu crater](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/tangku-1024x768.jpg)
No matter what is your reason for visiting Tangkuban perahu, it is surely one of the top things to do in Bandung for all age groups.
Photograph the stunning Kawah Putih
Located in Ciwidey , around 50 kms from Bandung, Kawah Putih or the white crater lake is one of the most popular places to visit in Bandung and surely one of the top things to do in Ciwidey . It is an excellent weekend getaway from Bandung but can just as easily be covered in a day trip.
![bandung tourist places kawah putih ciwidey bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/kawahputih11-1024x590.jpg)
Let me warn you that the pungent smell of sulfur can be overpowering here but the breathtaking views more the make up for this slight discomfort. Barren branches of trees with an epic bay like white lake backdrop oozing of fumes can be mystical and magical to look at.
![bandung tourist places kawah putih pictures](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/kawahputih10-1024x682.jpg)
Just for the mind-blowing views, it is one of the best places to photograph in Bandung and should make it to your Bandung itinerary. So if you have a free weekend and are wondering what to see in Bandung, this stunning crater lake should be on top of your list.
Enjoy Mountain Views at Gunung Batu
Another adobe for nature lovers is this lovely hiking spot in Lembang, North of Bandung. Gunung batu is a sure shot way to get your dose of great outdoors and fall in love with the city of Bandung.
This was my very first hike in Bandung with some local couchsurfers. So it was my first introduction to the culture and the real beauty of this hill town…and exactly how I fell in love with Bandung and decided to stay for 11 months (instead of my original plan of 2 months).
![bandung tourist places gunung batu hike](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/1476384_10152340775946920_6300503109915033819_n.jpg)
The hike starts from just above Dulang cafe in Lembang (which is a great starting and ending point). It is short but tricky when you get to the end and climb the big hill. I needed a little bit of hand holding in some parts and once you are at the top, the views are simply surreal.
![bandung tourist places hiking gunung batu](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/10405693_10152340774461920_6968259782471957370_n.jpg)
I noticed a group were camping there, perhaps to get the spectacular sunrise and vouched to go back for that since we missed the rising sun by well over an hour. It was still the best introduction I could get to Bandung and the hiking routes available there. Indonesian people are also extremely kind, friendly and helpful – I never felt like an outsider with a totally new group and met the lovely Bandung couchsurfing group several times after.
Take a dip in Infinity Pool at Dulang Cafe
Dulang cafe turned out to be one of my favorite hangouts in Bandung – especially for a relaxing day out.
The cafe boasts of an amazing infinity pool, overlooking green valley views.
![bandung tourist places dulang resort bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/10009795_10152340779551920_1961555165287807233_n.jpg)
I was sold from the first time I lay my eyes and took a dip in its refreshing waters. A day out at Dulang is highly recommended and you can enjoy cocktails by the pool and a hearty meal after your dip as well.
Taking a dip is free for all customers of cafe and surprisingly, it is almost never crowded. Only a couple of times, I found 2 or max 3 other people in the pool (Apart from our gang) and if you wait, you can almost always have the entire pool to yourself.
![bandung tourist places dulang cafe bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/14089164_10153605282306920_5544760676209432409_n.jpg)
Surely one of the best things to do in Bandung to enjoy scenic views and completely recharge your batteries.
Walk around Juanda Forest Park in Dago
The Juanda forest park in Dago pakar consists of long winding green paths, caves and heck even waterfalls. Enter from gate no 1 and walk all the way 4 kms upto gate no 4 for a lovely day out.
![bandung tourist places hiking dago pakar](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/dago-pakar-1024x682.jpg)
I lived in Dago for over 6 months and when I discovered this walk I was amazed. Imagine living right next door to waterfalls and amazing greenery? You can see tell why I love Bandung so much!
Soak in a Hot Spring
From Ciwidey to Lembang, Bandung is a mecca for hot spring lovers . You can choose to stay in the resort to indulge in rejuvenating spa treatments which end by taking a dip in natural hot springs; or simply buy a one time visit pass for $3.5 – $5 (depending on day of the week and the hot spring you choose).
I have always taken a pass and usually visited with friends in late evenings to enjoy a warm dip in the cool weather of Bandung. You will come out with soft and supple skin and feel all tensions evaporate in the smoky waters.
If you are bored on a Sunday and wondering what to do in Bandung, seek out these nature spots for instant serenity.
Things to Do in Bandung Indonesia as per Other Avid Travellers
After picking my top attractions of Bandung, I decided to ask a few other fellow travelers about their Bandung hot spots and this is what we came up with –
Check out Ancient Stones at The Stone Garden
Picked by Marya Sutimi of The BeauTraveler
![bandung tourist places the stone garden bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/stonegarden-1024x768.jpg)
If you’ve heard about some ancient tourist destinations like Machu Picchu, Cappadocia, or even Stonehenge, it will surprise you to know that Bandung has its own site that used to be the ancient seamount thousand years ago: The Stone Garden GeoPark.
As the name implied, Stone Garden Geopark is the ancient seamount that has many formations of ancient stones, formed randomly on the hill, and has been around for over 27 million years. It has supported the fact as some geologists have discovered fossils of ancient coral in Pawon Cave, known as Gua Pawon by the locals.
Since the 19th century, this place was a mining area that wasn’t a public attraction until 2014 when the local government finally opened it for the public as a Geopark and a protected cultural preserve. Once you set your foot here, the karst topography in the area gives us a unique experience and the scenery of the ancient rock mountain would make a great addition on your Instagram feed.
This is the place you could use for a short escape to just sit there and relax. With affordable entry tickets, magnificent views, and historical background, Stone Garden is a hidden gem attraction that should be included in your must-visit list in Bandung.
Learn how Kopi Luwak is Made
Picked by Arrianne Guzman of Travel Habeat
![bandung tourist places kopi luwak bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/travel-habeat-kopi-luwak-bandung-1024x694.jpg)
Even just a day trip in Bandung can offer you a number of interesting things to do like exploring a kopi luwak factory . The coffee lover in me will not miss such kind of experience. You will not only get to taste the world’s most expensive coffee, but you can witness for yourself the coffee making process, that is, from bean to cup.
Several kopi luwak production sites are available in the area like Sawarga Kopi Luwak. If you’re lucky, you can see freshly gathered beans as they were picked from the forest. Take note that these beans came from luwaks eating only the flesh of berries and expelling the beans as feces.
As you tour around, you’ll discover how the beans are dried, sorted, and roasted. From roasting, you will smell that lingering coffee fragrance as the beans are ground next. The last step will be packaging and you can also grab one as prices in factories themselves are cheaper. Aside from savoring a cup of kopi luwak, learning behind the scenes of its production will surely be a fun experience.
Gawk at Incredible Fossils at the Geological Museum
Picked by Mark Wyld of WyldFamilyTravel
![bandung tourist places bandung geological museum](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Bandung-Geological-16.jpg)
Any visit to the Bandung must include a visit to the Geological Museum. The museum is one of the best things to do in Bandung if you have an interest in dinosaurs. As you walk into this amazing Bandung attraction, you are greeted by a giant 4 meters high Mammoth skeleton that lived 165,000 years ago. This giant fossil dominates the entry hall. The mammoth is 85% original fossils with 15% having been molded to make this giant mammoth complete. After this amazing introduction, you have three collections to explore.
![bandung tourist places geological museum in bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Bandung-Geological-18.jpg)
Geology of Indonesia, History of Life, Geological Resources, Benefits and Disasters. The museum has a large collection of rocks and minerals and even meteorites that have crashed in Indonesia. The star of the show is a section of an 11.5kg meteorite that fell in Java. You will learn about the minerals found in Indonesia with examples of crystals, coal, iron ore, and more.
The collection of fossils in the history of the life gallery is amazing with more skeletons and a special exhibition that changes over time. The museum is housed in a large 2 story building. The museum was only a few dollars to get into and one of the highlights of any trip to Bandung.
Fun Things to Do in Bandung at Night
Bandung might seem like a small hill town, but trust me, with its growing expat community and thirsty party loving locals, it is an epic destination for night owls. The only issue is the clubbing scene is very underground and you need to know which days to go where or you would end up club hopping without any concrete action plans.
Due to lack of information on Bandung nightlife, I wrote this complete guide to underground drinking holes of Bandung here . Below is a synopsis of what to do in Bandung at night for party lovers like yours truly.
Chill out At Tambuhak Food & Beverage Garden
![bandung tourist places tambuhak bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/IMG-20200603-WA0001-1024x768.jpg)
Tambuhak is the newest coolest chill spot in Bandung for youngsters. Geared with food stalls and beer garden, Tambuhak has been the hot new favorite of all the cool kids on the block. Frank’s tacos are to die for and the burgers are mouthwatering. I would give it full marks for its warm outdoor decor and recommend it as an excellent “pre-party” spot.
Enjoy Live Music in Braga street
Braga street has a reputation as being the go to spot for picking up girls in Bandung. While that is true to a great extent, for a solo female traveler such as myself, it turned out to be a fun and happening party street.
![bandung tourist places braga street bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/10658809_10152266042381920_1366981158886939857_o-1024x768.jpg)
With daily live music spread across tons of bars lining both sides of the street, funky street art, cheap beer bars, pool tables and heck even a fancy rooftop pub – Jalan Braga has just about everything a new party goer in Bandung would seek.
Braga is an immersive experience as you get low down and party and sing along with locals. Though disliked by some expats, Braga street is a real gem to understand how to party like a local in Bandung.
Sing your Hearts out at one of the Many Karaoke Bars
Going to a Karaoke club is totally a thing in Bandung. Usually they are sought after by rich Indo-Chinese men for picking up local Indonesian chicks, however, these clubs are excellent for partying with a cool group of friends.
You can book a private room with aircon, get snacks and alcohol served to you and make a mad night out of it. My Karaoke nights in Bandung always started off slow and ended in some after party club.
Indulge in Bandung Nightlife
![bandung tourist places things to do in bandung indonesia](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/11021341_10152541934071920_3360726999576674233_o-765x1024.jpg)
Bandung has an array of night clubs since this city gets hoards of visitors from its rich neighbour – Jakarta every weekend. For people living in Jakarta, Bandung is just 2 hour drive away and the perfect weekend getaway to be away from big city chaos and enjoy some amazing mountain air.
For Indonesian men, Bandung is considered a great pick up city as the local women are said to be the prettiest in Indonesia – I cannot testify but in general Indonesian women really maintain themselves and know how to look pretty. Some popular night clubs are – Shelter, Mox, Southbank, Sobbers, Maja house, and Amnesia , with new ones popping up each year – Backyard being the newest of the lot.
Soak in the Thriving Bar and Pub Culture of Bandung
Bar and pub culture in Bandung is surprisingly pretty good. Once I discovered the expat community one fine day over $1 beers in Pizza e bira , it was a life changer for my party game. I was introduced to a whole new world of pre party and after party bars and chilled out underground drinking holes.
Places like Nomad’s bar (perched on a hill, inside a huge lovely house – where I ended up living for 6 months) or OJ’s (Again inside a house with entrance from the garage) – are all unique and super secret.
![bandung tourist places nomads bar bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/10410335_10152680758206920_1146733650022913401_n.jpg)
You will literally only get to go with a local or someone who knows the place/ owner. I love such secret spots so Bandung nightlife started to amaze me as I spent more and more time in the city. Halfway and Bamboo shack were other favorites of mine. Bamboo shack for the free pool table as you can easily spend a few hours downing balls and gulping beers with your gang.
What to Do in Bandung – Other cool things to Try!
![bandung tourist places what to do in Bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Things-to-do-in-Bandung-683x1024.png)
Enjoy Strawberry Picking
Strawberry picking in Lembang is one of the best things to do in Bandung with family.
![bandung tourist places strawberry lembang](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/1544955_10152644150811920_1205669794739978209_n.jpg)
If you are heading to Lembang, you can combine this activity with others like visiting Kopi luwak plantation, Tangkuban perahu or even the floating market. En-route to any of these Bandung attractions, you will spot several strawberry farms where you can choose and pick your own fresh berries.
Dine at Fancy Restaurants without Breaking the Bank
Congo is one of my favorite restaurants in Bandung – which is saying a lot since the city perhaps has thousands of amazing eateries.
Situated in the upscale Dago pakar area of North Bandung, this jungle themed restaurant is huge and boasts of killer city views, without a big dent in your pocket. It is classy so dress accordingly. It was my ‘go to place’ for any friends who would visit me while I was living in Bandung. Upscale, posh and would perhaps just set you back $40 per person, including alcohol – for a place like that, we would easily end up paying double or more in Delhi or even let’s say Jakarta or Bali.
There are many similar restaurants which ooze of style and class whilst maintaining high hygiene standards and yet easy on the pocket. Rumah Payung is another such cool spot.
![bandung tourist places rumah payung bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/10991315_10152519795781920_7158718342970918061_n.jpg)
Midnight visit to the Spooky Japanese Cave at Dago
Nestled in the forest park of Dago is the infamous Dutch cave known to hold Indonesian prisoners and also used as a torture cell. There are several stories going around of supernatural beings, possessions and ghosts in the cave.
Even though the park closes at 5 pm, since you are able to camp overnight they allow entrance with a guide anytime of the day (or night). I visited the caves twice at night with my friends (And a guide ofcourse) and every time I could feel goosebumps.
Once I even saw a TV crew with the spokes lady claiming to be possessed by a ghost – right in front of us!!!
To be honest, I am not sure how true the stories of the haunted Dutch cave of Dago are but it surely gives a thrill if you are brave enough to venture out at night. Though as per this forum post , most ghost sightings happen during the day.
Outlet Shopping
Bandung is known for cheap outlet shopping all over Indonesia. Locals from Jakarta and neighbouring cities come to Bandung for the various factory outlets of big international brands in Setiabudi and other areas. I am not much of a shopaholic so cannot comment on the prices but I have heard the branded clothes and shoes are super cost effective and infact exported throughout the country (and beyond) from here.
Visit the Lovely Lembang Floating Market
Lembang floating market was actually never on my list of places to visit in Bandung. However, when my parents were visiting me, I decided to find some family friendly attractions in Bandung; and the Lembang floating market popped right up. We hired a cab and went there to be pleasantly surprised.
![bandung tourist places Floating market Lembang Bandung](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/lembang8-1024x768.jpg)
Lots of open spaces, colourful stores, delicious cuisines, riverside cafes and ofcourse floating boats with vendors selling fresh produce.
Enjoy Cheap and Delicious Street Food
You can be totally spoilt for choice when you start thinking ‘ What to eat in Bandung ‘. That’s because the street food of Bandung is cheap, good and plenty.
![bandung tourist places Ayam and bebek Betutu](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/11038792_10152650549966920_1933652316719491230_n.jpg)
You have so many options to choose from for all sorts of budgets and palates. From spicy to sweet, from fried to roasted – there is something for everyone. My top favorite Bandung dishes were – Martabak, Nasi cunning, Ayam Goreng, Sate, Bubur Ayam, Tofu pedas, Mie goreng, Bebek goreng and so many more. Just thinking about the Bandung food is making me want to go back.
You will soon realise that Indonesians are big time foodies and in a student town like Bandung, eating out is preferred over home cooking. So the city is literally dotted with umpteen restaurants, street food vendors, cafes and home delivery options (via Gojek and other apps).
Watch Ram fighting
Ram fighting could be a yay or nay for most but what I witnessed was a fun event. The proud Ram owners decorated their animals as well as took good care of them.
![bandung tourist places ram fighting](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/another-pretty-ram-wanderwithjo.com_-1024x768.jpg)
They took pride in their fleet and showed them off. For locals it is a family fun event with gifts like refrigerators for the winning ram owners. It was done in good taste with the referee making sure the Ram were not hurt.
Shop at Cihampelas Walk
This modern shopping mall is perhaps the most popular mall in Bandung. With a variety of international brands, food court, salons, bars and a fancy modern outlook, it is a favorite among locals and tourists alike.
Get a Relaxing Massage
Finding a massage parlour or a spa in Bandung is as easy as it gets. Based on your budget and requirements, you can get a full body massage for as low as $5 or as high as $50. I must have tried over 20 odd places and with a massage parlour on literally every street, your choices are endless. If you are too tired to even head out, fret not just download the ‘Golife app’ and get a professional masseuse right at your doorstep, without breaking the bank. So after trying all the cool activities in Bandung, wind up with a uber relaxing massage.
Try White Koffie
![bandung tourist places white koffie](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/12278690_10153052905136920_5339388017145398886_n.jpg)
I would say try this premixed concoction at your own risk because it is so addictive, I still pack bag fulls of coffee to and from my Indonesian trips. I feel like a coffee smuggler and even have some friends hooked to this lovely mix of coffee, milk power and ground sugar. The closest alternative to this is Nescafe 3-in-1 in India but to be honest, it doesn’t even come close.

Where to stay in Bandung
Bandung has an array of hotels, guest houses and homestays. You can get a simple room for as low as $100 a month – yes, that’s right – those are the shared student accommodations.
However, for tourists, here’s a list of hotels in Bandung I would recommend to try –
Budget Sleeps
Nomads Bar – An after-party bar with rooms on rent was my choice of stay for most of my time in Bandung. To book or for queries, simply email me or comment below. They are not available on any booking engines so I will connect you to the owners directly.
Mitra Dago Antapani – Situated in one of my favorite locations in North Bandung – Dago pakar, this homestay is clean, cozy, highly rated and doesn’t break the bank.
Red Doorz – Red doorz has several budget sleeps across the city in popular areas like Dago, Setiabudi, Cihampelas, etc.
Mid-Range Hotels in Bandung
![bandung tourist places Morning Coffee at EverJoy](https://www.wanderwithjo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/14199504_10154196391244230_7060551883349275731_n.jpg)

Seventeen Homestay – Seventeen offers basic rooms with terrace and garden. It is clean and highly rated property.
Luxury Hotels in Bandung
Bandung has an array of luxury sleeps and you can be spoilt for choices. I have visited these hotels and heard good things from my Indonesian friends so if you are looking to splurge, these 3 are your best bets –
Padma Hotel Bandung – This is one of the best hotels in Bandung, hand’s down. With stunning mountain views, a glass-floored restaurant, outdoor swimming pool, spa, open-air hot tub and several activities for guests; Padma hotel deserves to be one of the most sought after accommodations for luxury travelers to Bandung.
Sheraton Hotel and Towers – Living up to its brand name, Sheraton Bandung offers floor to ceiling windows showcasing lush greenery of this pretty mountain town, amongst all other 5 star amenities.

How to Travel Around Bandung?
The cheapest and fastest way to travel around Bandung is hiring a Gojek - a bike taxi. If you plan to spend a long time in the city, simply rent a bike.
What is Bandung Famous for?
This capital of West Java is a getaway for city dwellers from Jakarta. Bandung offers mist covered landscapes ranging from tea plantations to volcanoes.
What to do in Bandung for 3 Days?
Well I had 11 months in Bandung so I covered a lot of ground. If you have just 3 days at hand, I would suggest to try one of the hikes, stay in Dago Pakar and check out the white crater - Kawah Putih.
Well if you don’t have 11 months to spend in Badung like I did, you can even cover some of these interesting places in Bandung in a span of few days. Once you experience this cute town, you might be lured to stay longer so be sure to come with a flexible itinerary and an open heart. You can easily fall in love with this city of Indonesia.
So have you visited Bandung or planning to? Well then keep this list of best things to do in Bandung handy to ensure you have an awesome visit to my favorite little hill town.

Top Things To Do in Bandung
Rest and recreation at dusun bambu.
Dusun Bambu, known as a family leisure park, is located at the foot of a mountain. It is one of the top things to do in Bandung with family. Imagine walking on bamboo bridges across paddy fields surrounded by lush, picturesque mountain views. If walking is not your thing, you can hop onto Wara Wira, a floral-decorated transport that will take you around Dusun Bambu.
Enjoy a meal on a treetop in their hanging nests, the Lutung Kasarung, while soaking in the mountain breeze. Or you can move up higher to Cafe Burangang for a cup of coffee or tea while you drink in an even more incredible view of the Burangang mountain. But if a variety of food is essential to you, you can head to Pasar Khatulistiwa, a food court.
You can also do many activities here, such as archery, flying hammock, canoeing, paintball, ATV, etc. Some may require additional fees.
Many people choose to also stay in Dusun Bambu to experience the place fully. For comfort, you can stay in Kampung Layung, where there are various villas to choose from. There is a camping ground for those who want to stay close to nature, but this is more of a glamping equipped with facilities.
This place is arguably one of the best places to visit in Bandung, solo traveling, as a couple, or with your family. With its vast area of nature and various things to do, you will surely leave this place with a smile.
Stay at Dusun Bambu for the ultimate experience *
Enjoy the musical performance at saung angklung udjo.
The next to things to do in Bandung is Saung Angklung Udjo! From the heart of Bandung, you can drive around 20 minutes to Saung Angklung Udjo, a place for West Java’s cultural performances. Angklung is a traditional musical instrument made of bamboo from the land of Sundanese. It is a 2-hour show of several parts, including a puppet show, mask dance, Angklung performance, and dances with little kids.
Watch the performance and maybe also participate in an Angklung workshop; you may be delighted by learning this long-standing craft. This traditional musical performance is one of the best ways to explore Indonesian culture.

I am not exaggerating here; nobody goes back from Bandung empty-handed. Especially if you go to the factory outlets at Jl Riau or Jl Dago, you will find all the hidden gems of quality clothes, shoes, bags, and all else in various famous brands. All the items you discover here are in good condition, brand new, but at half the price!

Bandung is the home to the local Indonesian clothing line. Along Sultan Agung Street, you can explore many distros that sell original pieces you won’t find anywhere. Most of them sell streetwear. These self-produced items are purported to be as good as big-brand clothing! Do put this on your list of things to do in Bandung.
Explore Bandung’s culinary heaven
Bandung has a reputation for being a culinary heaven. When in Bandung, you will see many cafes around the city. That’s right, Bandung has TONS of cafes, and there’s probably one new cafe opening every week.
Not only cafes, but Bandung also has many delicious local foods. We recommend trying the legendary Kupat Tahu Gempol for your breakfast. It is a dish of savory tofu and compressed rice cake, served with peanut sauce and Indonesian crackers. Make sure to come early in the morning, as the place is always crowded.
Want to try Bandung’s authentic street food experience? Head over to Cibadak Culinary Night, which opens every day from 6 PM – 11 PM. This place offers a wide range of dishes, from Indonesian, Chinese, and Western to Japanese fusion. These eye-catching food stalls will make you want to shop & try each of their food!
If you’re more into local Sundanese food, try Pandan Wangi resto. They have the best of both worlds—good food & excellent experience! Oh, and don’t miss their signature Terong Raos: We’re sure it will be the best crispy & tasty eggplant you’ll ever eat! (Yes, trust us, it tastes so good that you won’t believe it is an eggplant).
You can also visit the feels-like home cafe Miss Bee Providore for outdoor seating. The cafe itself is located in the upper area of Bandung, Ciumbuleuit. They provide tasty Western & Indonesian dishes, with scrumptious desserts, too. While eating their food, enjoy the breezy air & the view of green trees that will calm your mind.
Catch a sunset at The Valley
Want a fancier option of things to do in Bandung? Visit The Valley * Cafe in the upper hills of Dago area and be amazed by their first-class steak and stunning sunset city views.
The food is good, too, so enjoy your meal while watching the sunset over Bandung City. They also have a choice of rooms and villas * if you can’t have enough of the view.
Swing on a hammock in Tebing Gunung Hawu
Tebing Gunung Hawu is a cliff from limestone mountains and is one of the alternative things to do in Bandung. For the adventurous, get a hold of a hammock operator and swing from one between the rocks overlooking the cliff. A tip is to book early for it before going, as they can all be taken, especially during peak season. The lush green scenery here is well worth your time, even if not from a swinging hammock.
How to get there : Tebing Gunung Hawu is located in Padalarang, West Bandung.
Visit The Great Asia Afrika
The Great Asia Afrika is a family recreation place on the main road between Bandung and Lembang. If you are here with your family and kids, then it is a great option for things to do in Bandung. It offers visitors the experience of seeing eight iconic landmarks from Asian, African, and Middle Eastern countries. India’s Pink City, Thailand’s Grand Palace, Japan’s Fushimi Inari-Taisha, China’s Great Wall, and Africa’s traditional house are among the many miniature versions of landmarks scattered around the hilly landscape.
The hilly terrain helps by giving fresh air and breathtaking views, making your trip more enjoyable. Apart from taking pictures and exploring landmarks, you can rent and wear traditional clothes from different countries, buy food and souvenirs, have a picnic, and ride a mini-train. The entrance fee for all the entertainment is IDR 50.000, which you can exchange for a welcome drink.
Capture your experience in Dago Dream Park
Dago Dream Park is an amusement park in the upper Dago area, which is relatively more reachable than Lembang if you stay in downtown Bandung. It has become a must-visit spot since its establishment in 2016 because it has various activities designed for all ages.
The main attraction is its selfie spots where you can have your pictures taken on top of a ‘flying’ carpet, a giant bicycle, a Vespa, Carl Grandpa Up house, a love seat, and in front of a Sakura tree. The staff will edit your picture to make you look like you are genuinely flying and become united with the background. For adrenaline, you can try thrilling activities like paintball, ATV and boogie rides, motocross, sky gliding, archery, and pirate ship.
Those who come with their family can choose leisure activities: Uncle’s, Barn farm-themed children’s playground, batik, and clay-making, boat rides in Row a Boat, horseback riding, or fishing. Every attraction has a fee on top of the upfront base fee. The base fee is IDR 30,000 per person, allowing only some attractions. The individual fee ranges from IDR 20.000 to 30.000. Preparing your money and energy in advance is advisable as you need to play, queue, and walk around in a sloped area.

Top Places to Visit in Bandung
Braga street and asia-afrika street.
For the first destination, we recommend you to visit Braga Street. In the colonial era, Braga was the most prestigious street in the city. It was the first shopping arcade in Bandung. Now, it has become a tourist destination with many cafes and shops.
Explore Braga by walking or taking the Bandros (Bandung Tour on Bus), a bus dedicated to tourists. Along the road, you can find many artists selling their unique paintings. If you want to experience Braga in the Dutch era, try dining at Braga Permai, a resto owned by a Dutch. It offers many authentic European & western dishes that will bring you the old Braga vibe.
Not too far from Braga is Asia Afrika Street, one of Bandung’s most iconic streets. The street name was adopted to show respect for the Asian–African Conference held in 1955 in Bandung.
While strolling down the street, you can explore the Merdeka Building, a museum displaying collections and photographs of the Asian–African Conference. Along the road, you can also find some unique sightseeing; locals cosplay as Iron Man, Dora The Explorer, or even a pocong (one of the Indonesian ghosts). Dare to take a picture with them, perhaps?
Kawah Putih
Kawah Putih is at the top of Bandung’s list of tourist attractions for its stunningly beautiful lake. It is 2 hours away from Bandung city center and in the highlands, but it is worth doing. The place is cooling but beware of sunburn as it is still sunny without feeling it. It is a sulphuric lake as it comes from a volcano. The entire area can be explored in 30 minutes.
Many people come here by car hire and get a ticket here in advance .
Enjoy the volcano Tangkuban Perahu
One of the most popular spots you can visit is Mount Tangkuban Perahu, which translates as an overturned boat. It is an active volcano located 30 km from the heart of Bandung. Enjoy the mystical yet enchanting views of the sulfur crater after a hike while sipping hot beverages & eating some fritters.
About 1.5 hours from Bandung, it is yet another crater from a volcano in Indonesia that is worth the visit for the sheer awe of the view from the top. It may be the second-best next to Kawah Putih, but it is still worth a visit.
![bandung tourist places Tangkuban perahu, bandung](https://allindonesiatravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/tangkuban-perahu-bandung.jpg)
Villa Isola
Built by an Italian millionaire and perched at the northern part of Bandung, Villa Isola overlooks a breathtaking view of the city to the south. This villa is one tourist attraction not to be missed. There are also cool places to stay nearby Villa Isola *
Gedung Sate and Gedung Merdeka
You might like to check out two iconic buildings in Bandung city. Gedung Sate is built and used by Dutch companies, it is also famous for its satay food decoration. It has six ornaments symbolizing 6 million guldens. Now it is used as the office of the West Java governor. The place is open to the public, and don’t forget to have a good chill and drink on the top floor while overlooking the city. Gedung Merdeka is another architectural wonder. It was built for the rich and then made famous for hosting the first Asian-African conference. Though not much of an attraction but worth taking a look if you are nearby.
Lembang Park and Zoo
Though Bandung and Lembang are home to several zoos, Lembang Park and Zoo became popular instantly. It combines the park and zoo concept with a large area of 25 hectares, lush plantations, diverse animals, and 5-star services from the staff. You can have fun and educational activities related to the animal kingdom, starting from Aves, Mammalia, Primata, Reptilia, and Megatank.
Some animals are Indonesian natives, and some are non-native, which is suitable for learning new knowledge. Big, harmful, or endangered animals are being put in cages, and human-friendly animals are being released in the yard to enable visitors to play, feed, and take pictures with them. Check the feeding time and performance schedule on Lembang Park and Zoo’s website and social media accounts.
The service level given by the staff makes Lembang Park and Zoo stand out, from providing scooters to prevent your leg from sore, building a Muslim praying room at several points, to covering you with an umbrella when the rain starts to pour. They will make sure your trip is unforgettable!
The regular entrance fee, for now, is IDR 50.000 for the weekdays and IDR 70.000 for the weekends. Many visitors recommend you to come on the weekdays as it is less crowded.
Now you know the best things to do and attractions to see in Bandung. You will be amazed how you can enjoy yourself so much without spending a lot, especially suitable for budget travelers backpacking in Indonesia. However, carrying a lot of things after shopping is another story altogether!
Sanghyang Heuleut
Let us introduce you to this hidden gem: Sanghyang Heuleut. Immerse yourself in this exotic blue lagoon, surrounded by astonishing big rocks & stones.
You can swim and relax in this cold, refreshing lagoon. If you’re up to the challenge, you can even jump from a 7-meter-high rock straight into the lagoon!
While the previous three destinations are suitable for families, this destination is ideal for individual visitors. Wot Batu: an open-space art installation created by Sunaryo, a famous artist from Bandung. His other art installations are displayed around Bandung, but this Wot Batu is his newest.
In ancient Javanese, Wot means bridge, and Batu means stone, so the stone bridge is the main idea behind the creation of Wot Batu. As many as 136 stones are laid out in harmony in 2000 m2 of Dago Pakar’s land. Every stone has meaning to Sunaryo, and he shows it through a poetic description. For example, the A Trace of Space installation tells a story of two stones filling up the space between two eucalyptus trees. When the trees are gone, the stones will remain to remark the trees’ existence.

Guess what!? Bandung is one of my favourite places in all of Indonesia!
Why? Well, it's not on the typical tourist trail, so therefore prices have not increased, and you still feel like you're discovering activities, temples and experiences that no one has yet. If you compare this to Yogyakarta, which is a very popular spot on the island of Java, Bandung will feel like an untouched gem!
Bandung is located on the island of Java, Indonesia and is a great place to visit if you’ve landed in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia.
We spent 2 nights/3 days exploring the area of Bandung and did lots of awesome activities.
So we're going to take you through the best things to do in Bandung below, but before that...
If you're looking for a SUPER quick answer to the best sites in Bandung, then I'll round up my top 5 right here:
- See an actual active volcano (Tangkuban Perahu)
- Discover the tea fields (and of course drink tea!)
- Go to Mini Kotor (if you like weird and wonderful!)
- Chase waterfalls (check out number 14 to hear our favourites!)
- Floating markets at Lembang for a bite to eat

Top things to do in Bandung
@dreambigtravelfar BANDUNG, Indonesia 🇮🇩 was a real surprise for us! Not only is it home to a really cool volcano crater (which was closed on our visit 😞) but it's home to amazing tea fields (which means a slightly cooler climate- yay!), beautiful views, waterfalls, random photo spots, great food and friendly locals! #travelcouple #travelblog ♬ original sound - DreamBigTravelFar
Okay, so now for the part you came for, a list of the top things to do in Bandung.
All these Bandung activities are what Bradley and I did, including some extras we planned on doing but simply ran out of time.
1. Check out the active volcano Tangkuban Perahu
![bandung tourist places actv volcano in bandung](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/5d978441b3e172f9add7f095_active%20volcano%20in%20bandung.jpg)
This is an epic active volcano located around 30 km outside of the city.
It’s possible to take tours here, get a grab for a cheap price, or rent a moped and visit yourself.
This is an active volcano that you can drive right up to the crater.
You’ll see down the crater of one of the inactive ones, and you can pay extra ( around 50,000 ) for a tour that takes you closer to the other peaks.
Bradley and I drove the whole way up here and we got to the entrance and it was empty. We found a lady who worked there who spoke English and the volcano had erupted a couple of days before (somehow I missed that when Googling), anyway, the whole area was blocked off due to the sulphur so we couldn’t visit.
We did get to visit the “admin” centre where the guys showed us how the measure the pressure of the volcano and the history of when it went off etc.
Now before I visited I was warned by countless online articles about the amount of people here trying to sell you stuff and hoarding you. They said it takes away from the experience.
There were 3 guys there trying to sell stuff to two people, so I would believe that there are hundreds more when it’s open. But actually they were nice guys and we just chatted!
It’s probably the most expensive entrance fee in Bandung for foreigners, IDR 300,000 (USD 22) per person and locals have to pay just IDR 20,000.
(Weekends are more expensive too!)
Btw, there are beautiful tea fields located next to the volcano, which is what we visited instead since it was closed!
2. Wander around beautiful tea fields
![bandung tourist places bandung indonesia](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/5d97831bb3e17251fcd7ddb5_bandung%20indonesia.jpg)
Thanks to its cool climate Bandung is home to many many stunning tea fields.
It actually reminded me a lot of Sri Lanka whilst driving through them.
If you’ve never visited tea fields before, then I highly recommend you visit these.
You won’t need to pay a penny (woohoo!) and there are many to choose from and you can just walk among them and admire them.
There are trails so you don’t need to walk on any important crops. We flew our drone here and it was awesome.
You will need bring yourself to the Bandung countryside to experience these tea fields, and the cooler climate.
But honestly, the countryside of Bandung is where all the real beauty sits.
If you want to find these specific tea fields then follow directions to "Kebun Teh Sekitar Ciater"
3. Relax in one of the many hot spring resorts on offer
![bandung tourist places Maribay Natural hot springs resort](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/611126223aa2d7f240215f61_Maribaya%20Natural%20Hot%20Spring%20Resort_result.jpg)
Due to it’s volcanic activity, Bandung it home to some amazing hot springs.
However, they are not as natural as the ones I came across secluded in Chile, rather they have been turned into hot spring resorts.
Whilst this may be less peaceful, it's still a super great experience, because who doesn't love to relax in a hot spring!?
We checked out hot spring Marabyia.
Tip: Remember Bandung is a Muslim area, so I’d try and be a little respectful with your choice of swimwear, just out of respect.
I highly recommend taking a combination tour to hot springs and other sites to create an awesome full day trip to Bandung!
4. Visit the floating market Lembang for a bite to eat
![bandung tourist places Floating Market Lembang](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/61111642e2442ab6aa489b1c_floating%20market%20in%20Lembang%C2%A0_result.jpg)
I love floating markets!
I've loved them all across Asia, especially in Thailand.
Well, Bandung also has some really cool floating markets, and the best is Lembang Floating Market. (I suggest you arrive hungry!)
Again it’s out in the countryside, so you’ll either need to use Grab Taxi, or rent a moped to get there. But it’s so cute and cheap! Probably one of the cheapest things to do in Bandung.
It’s like a mini replica of the Thailand floating markets in Bangkok, but I liked it even more.
You can opt to get a boat or you can walk around the boardwalk and sample some of the many many food stalls on offer.
There is so much choice for amazing food and drink, I was so sad that I had already eaten before we got there.
Also you’re entrance ticket gives you a free drink. It’s only 20,000 IDR entrance (which is around $1.20)
5. Admire the colorful Bandung flower garden
![bandung tourist places flower garden bandung](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/5d97847f6f21d75923d85aa3_flower%20garden%20bandung.jpg)
The floating market of Bandung and Bandung flower garden are located right next to each other, but they’re a separate ticket.
Anyway, wow, the colors on offer here are magnificent! I loved it.
It’s such a beautiful place to wander and get great pictures. It’s actually a really romantic spot and I could imagine a few proposals have been conducted here.
It’s only 10,000 IDR entrance (less than $1) and you get another free drink with your ticket!
One of the romantic things to do in Bandung, coming from a couple! :P

6. Relive your youth at Mini Koto
![bandung tourist places mini kota bandung](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/5d9784a089c88c5ebdcfcf29_mini%20kota%20bandung.jpg)
Mini Koto (translation: Mini City) took me right back to my childhood.
I just wish I had my little niece with me so I could play with her in all the little houses!
It’s basically a mini town, but it’s built for children, so there is a fairy house, there is a princess house where kids can dress up, there’s a candy store, mirror room, a bakery, gosh just everything. And there is a mini fairground.
They play Disney music too as you wander, and it really adds to the cute atmosphere.
I loved it, but before I went in, the lady at the desk did say “it’s really only for kids, you might not enjoy it”...oh but I did!
It’s only 20,000 IDR entrance.
7. Visit Tebing Keraton for sunset
Looking for the perfect sunset spot in Bandung? Then this is highly rated.
Brad and I don’t drive in the dark so we didn’t make this sunset spot, but I put it on my original list of Bandung attractions, so if you’re travelling via grab or a private driver, then ask them to wait for you.
8. Visit Dusun Bambu (lunch on lake houses)
This was one of the things to do in Bandung that we didn’t go to in the end.
Simply because we ran out of time and only had one day to explore the countryside!
We needed to make it back to the city before sunset (driving on a moped in the dark is not fun) so we ran out of time.
But I really wanted to go here as there are little restaurants on the lake houses and you’re surrounded by a picturesque view.
I can’t imagine it’s expensive compared to the rest of the prices of things I’ve listed above, so if you are in Bandung, then add this to your places to visit in Bandung list and don’t run out of time like me.
9. Go glamping in the woods
![bandung tourist places Ciwidey west Java](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/611116f97ad77a75127a824a_Ciwidey%20west%20Java_result.jpg)
Whilst driving through the Bandung countryside on our moped we drove past lots of camping posts in forests along the side of the road and I have to say they looked AWESOME.
Hence why I mentioned this.
We had already paid for accommodation in the city, but had I done my research better, and if there was better information online about the things to do in Bandung (you’re welcome), I would 1000% have arranged a glamping night in the countryside.
You know you can dine and sleep on a pirates ship too?
But there are hobbit houses, little pods, and all the glamping luxury you can imagine, and it’s half the price of what it would be elsewhere in the world.
Since the temperature is cooler up there it’s also pleasant to sleep, and there are lots of activities for kids such as ziplining. Thus making this, one of the great things to do in Bandung with kids.
10. Try karaoke
![bandung tourist places drinking bintangs in bandung](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/5d9784c96f21d73f72d85e60_drinking%20bintangs%20in%20bandung.jpg)
Indonesians like their karaoke, (however not as much as the Filipinos!), but it you want a local experience, then I suggest you find yourself a karaoke experience.
Our hotel which was located in the city centre actually had karaoke on the night we visited alongside a delicious Chinese BBQ buffet. It’s good fun and if you’re too afraid to sing, drink a couple of Bintangs to help.
11. Shop in the city for fabric heaven
![bandung tourist places Bandung - West Java Indonesia](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/6111275012ccc616cb582789_Bandung%20-%20West%20Java%20Indonesia_result.jpg)
The city may be hectic, but it’s well known for its wide range of fabrics, so if you want some new materials or even want to get a dress or suit made, then this is the place to be.
There are lots of “shopping malls”, not in the fancy, with lots of stores sense, but with lots of stalls with locals selling their products. An interesting, yet chaotic experience.
12. Go offroading
This is something I researched for Brad and I to do but the time wasn’t there. It’s very reasonably priced and if you have never been offroading before, then this is a great place to try it.
As I mentioned before, there are lots of forests in the countryside of Bandung and that’s where you will head for your trip.
You can check out the website here for more information on how to book etc.
13. Visit the famous White Crater in South Bandung
![bandung tourist places White Crater in South Bandung](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/611127c109ba1a3517fddf4e_White%20Crater%20in%20South%20Bandung_result.jpg)
When visiting Bandung with a tight schedule, you will probably have to decide whether you want to visit the north or south area.
We opted for North, but I wish I had time to visit the beautiful White Crater in the south.
The pictures are quite iconic if you’ve seen them, and if you have time, definitely add this to your list of things to do in Bandung.
The famous "White Crater", official name Kawah Putih is a crater lake located near the cute village of Ciwidey, near Bandung, Indonesia.
It is truly regarded as one of the most unique & stunning places in West Java.
It's actually one of two craters of Mount Patuha, with the dry being Kawah Patuha and the Patuha Crater located 600 meters to its northwest.
It first opened for visitors in 1987, and now it's one of the most popular tourist attractions for day trippers who are simply stunned by its mesmerizing ambience.
Remember it can get super busy on the weekends!
14. Chase waterfalls in Bandung
![bandung tourist places waterfalls in bandung](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/5d9784f089c88c2fe4cfd306_waterfalls%20in%20bandung.jpg)
There are lots of little waterfalls all over Bandung. Whilst none of them are mind blowing or epic, they are pretty and quaint and worth stopping by for a picnic, or just to relax.
We actually tried to find some waterfalls that didn’t exist, so I won’t mention them.
You can check Tu Curug Cimahi, but as you’re driving along you’ll see signs for them and the best waterfalls are undiscovered, so ask the locals to direct you!
Here are some other great waterfalls in Bandung to chase:
- Curug Omas Waterfall
- Malela Waterfall
- Batu Templek Waterfall
- Layung Waterfall
15. Explore Mount Gutur
This is another cool volcano that is located in the south of Bandung and whilst it’s not the type of volcano you can drive up to, it does make for some epic drone shots and pics from the base of the volcano.
You can climb up this volcano too with a variety of marked paths, however it’s said to be challenging.
There is also a nice lake nearby called Situ Bagendit which is worth a visit too.
When is the best time to visit Bandung?
![bandung tourist places Bandung West Java](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/61112649a2bd63b84f74a838_Bandung%20West%20Java_result.jpg)
The best time to visit Bandung is during the dry season which runs from June to September.
This is the summer months and you’ll hopefully have nice weather and sunshine.
Actually Bandung is located in the higher parts of Indonesia which means the climate is a little cooler.
If you’re sightseeing in the high mountains then you may even need a jacket!
Bradley and I visited in August and it was perfect weather.
How long do you need in Bandung?
There is lots to do in Bandung for a couple of days.
We visited for 2 nights, which is a good amount if you can go exploring on both days.
If not, I suggest staying 3 days to see all the volcanoes and best sights in both the north and south Bandung.
How to get to Bandung?
When it comes to getting to Bandung, you have a couple of options.
Fly: Bandung has an airport, so you can easily fly there from Jakarta, Bali, or other parts of Indonesia. Flights can be very reasonable and I suggest using Skyscanner to check for flights.
Train: If you have landed in Jakarta, or Yogyakarta, then it’s super easy and comfortable to get a train to Bandung. The train system in Java is excellent.
All trains are very comfortable, have clean toilets on board and are extremely well priced. We started our Java adventure in Jakarta, so we got the train from Jakarta to Bandung, fuss free!
Hire a driver: You could hire a driver to take you around Java, but of course he would need to be with you “full-time” and you would need to arrange accommodation for them etc. However, if budget isn’t an issue, then this may be a nice and comfortable way to get around Java and get to Bandung.
Getting around Bandung, Indonesia
![bandung tourist places places to visit in bandung](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/576fd5a8f192527e50a4b95c/5d9785bf6f21d77cbcd862ad_places%20to%20visit%20in%20bandung.jpg)
When it comes to getting around Bandung, it can seem a little more complicated compared to other Java cities like Jogjakarta which has a more established tourism structure. However you still have a few options.
Grab: Grab is widely available in Bandung and actually it’s a super cheap and convenient way to get around Bandung. Even go up to the north is quite reasonably priced. For shorter journeys you can use mopeds via grab to get around.
Moped: You can easily get around Bandung via moped. It was a blooming nightmare trying to find a legitimate company, but we found one we highly recommend. They’re called Vectoran motor rental and it cost us 100,000 IDR to get the Moped. They will bring it to your hotel if you wish, or if you’re going to be exploring the north, I suggest you just get a grab up to the company to pick up the moped, because you’ll miss out the worst of the city traffic.
Driving in the countryside in Bandung is lovely. It’s filled with beautiful tea fields and mountains, but it can get cold, so bring yourself a jacket.
Driver: You could arrange a private driver to take you around Bandung. Actually, you could easily take a Grab driver and negotiate and all-day rate with him.
Where to stay in Bandung

When it comes to accommodation in Bandung you have quite a few options. Below I suggest 3 different properties including the one we stayed at ourselves.
Pasar Baru Square Hotel Bandung : this is where Bradley and I stayed. It was right in the city centre and a great price. City views, spacious rooms, and decent food. Good for couples.
The Trans Luxury Hotel Bandung : a very luxurious stay for those who don’t mind splashing a bit of cash, but this is one of the nicest hotels I've ever seen.
Vila Air Natural Resort : This one is out in the countryside and looks amazing. Just look at that pool and super close to the volcano and other great sites in the north of Bandung. So good for one night if you want to explore that area without driving lots.
