2025 Bandung City Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Bandung, a hidden gem in Southeast Asia On the Indonesian island of Java, there is a city surrounded by green mountains—Bandung. It combines the wonders of nature with a rich cultural heritage, exuding a unique charm that attracts tourists from all over the world. The natural scenery of Bandung is mesmerizing. Tangkuban Perahu is like a mysterious messenger of the earth, with smoke rising from the crater, creating a dreamlike atmosphere that makes people marvel at the wonders of nature. The hot springs around the volcano are scattered, steaming hot, and soaking in the hot springs, feeling the warm spring water wrapping the whole body, the fatigue of the journey disappears instantly. The Citarum Waterfall is another stunning sight, with majestic water rushing down from a height, like a thousand horses galloping and roaring, and the splashing water forms layers of mist, refracting the sunlight, as if building a beautiful rainbow bridge. In addition to the natural scenery, the cultural charm of Bandung is equally fascinating. The city preserves many colonial-era buildings, with European-style spires and carved doors and windows, combined with Indonesian local decorations, forming a unique style. Walking through the streets, it feels like traveling back in time. The famous Bandung Conference site carries important historical significance, where people can deeply feel the turbulent years that influenced the world pattern. Food is also a highlight of a trip to Bandung. Local cuisine combines diverse flavors, with charcoal-grilled satay, tender and juicy, dipped in special sauce, and a bite full of rich aroma; sweet and soft Indonesian pastries, mixed with coconut and rice fragrance, every bite is a sweet enjoyment. In the bustling market, a dazzling array of spices and exquisite handicrafts are full of rich life atmosphere, making people stop and explore.

It was a trip to Bandung, Indonesia. Just to share some of the places and key things to note about this trip. We visited Tangkuban Perahu Volcano 🌋 This is an active volcano. I would recommend you to bring a mask to avoid inhaling sulfur gases. Do wear comfortable shoes for walking around the craters. We explored the craters, enjoyed the views, and visited the hot springs nearby. Very worth to visit ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💰IDR 200,000 (~USD 13) 📍Cikahuripan, Lembang, West Bandung Regency We also visited Kawah Putih (White Crater). The crater lake is known for its striking turquoise color, which changes based on the weather. The smell of sulfur is strong so wearing a mask is advisable. We walked around the crater, took photographs, and enjoyed the ethereal scenery. 💰IDR 75,000 (~USD 5) 📍 Sugihmukti, Pasirjambu, Bandung Regency If you are looking for a good place for lunch, I would recommend you to try Dusun Bambu Family Leisure Park. This is a beautiful park setting with a lake and bamboo structures. We tried out the Nasi Liwet, Sundanese cuisine. The food was so good and we really love it. This is a popular spot, so expect crowds on weekends. 💰IDR 100,000 – 200,000 (~USD 6.50 – 13) 📍Jl. Kolonel Masturi KM 11, Cisarua, Bandung Barat We also explored the Ranca Upas (Deer Conservation Park). We were managed to buy some food on the spot and feed the deer 🦌 This is a very popular camping spot so I would recommend you to visit during the weekday. If you love natural hot springs, you can also explore the hot spring nearby. 💰 IDR 25,000 (~USD 2) 📍 Jl. Ciwidey-Patengan KM 11, Rancabali, Bandung We also visited Situ Patenggang (Patenggang Lake). A scenic lake surrounded by tea plantations. We rent a boat to explore the lake, the view was really beautiful and it is definitely worth to visit. 💰 IDR 25,000 (~USD 2) 📍 Ciwidey, Bandung Regency I would also recommend you to check out the Tea Plantations at Rancabal. Guided tours available to understand tea processing. I would say the Best visiting timing would be early in the morning for the misty atmosphere. We walked through the tea fields, visited a tea house, and tried sample local tea 🍵 📍 Jl. Raya Ciwidey-Patengan KM 9, Rancabali, Bandung 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 🪴 💰 IDR 50,000 (~USD 3.50) 📍Genteng, Cikole, Lembang, West Bandung Regency #indonesiatrip #vacation #trip

We tried to come here twice with friends before and failed because we couldn't get in even though it was open to the public. Finally made it this morning, even though we had to wait 30 minutes because they opened late. Anyways, this is another new Coffee Shop in Bandung. It occupies a two-story building, but only the second floor is used ✌🏼 Embracing a tropical concept, my favorite spot faces Jalan Riau, it's nice to have coffee while watching the street. Several corners are also aesthetic and great for taking photos. #songkran2024 #mytravelhacks #cherryblossom2024 #historicallandmarks #localguides #familytrip #trip #instatravel #goodfoods

WEEKEND in Bandung is fantastic. Great place, delicious food, perfect. Bandung folks love to gather, especially when there's a new place. This one just opened, quite spacious with a glass-house concept amidst lush trees. Despite its size, it feels a bit cramped due to the crowd. There are both outdoor and indoor seating areas with good air circulation, open-air style, so not too stuffy. But because it's the weekend, it's super crowded, so it's important to be considerate considering the current situation. Yesterday, I tried three dishes: Nasi Campur (60k), Pesto Pasta (50k), and French Toast Banana-Nutella (35k). The rice was tasty, the soup fresh, and the spices were flavorful, but a bit too greasy even with added lime. The chicken didn't absorb the seasoning well, but the satay lilit was delicious. The pasta was perfect, with big shrimp. The toast was also delicious. For drinks, I tried the Shani Makuta Tea, cool name, but turned out to be just plain iced tea. Luckily, it did neutralize the greasy taste effectively. They have a prayer room, clean toilets, and ample parking (like a rest area) #bandung #kopihitam #kopilokal #localguides #familytrip #trip #goodfoods #foodphotography

They could’ve also played some Chinese songs, though 😆 PS: Indonesia is a country with >80% Muslim population so only minority of people celebrates Lunar New Year. But as our country’s motto is “Bhinneka Tunggal Ika” or Unity in Diversity, we do have public holidays for every religion’s holy days, LNY included. So you can definitely feel the vibe everywhere! 🧧🏮🧧 Address - Wheels Coffee Roasters, Heritage Lifestyle Hub 2nd floor. LLRE Martadinata St. (Jl. Riau) No.65, Bandung, Indonesia.

I'm not gonna lie, this is the coffee that I've been waiting for the most. Finally, you can visit Sweet Story 3 tomorrow 🏻 Carrying a cool retro concept. The definition of each angle is aesthetic with interior design and accessories that are really eye pleasing 😍 until I'm confused about which one to choose, I think 10 slides aren't enough. It's crazy that the interior is really cool. The place is divided into two floors, indoor and outdoor. The location is in the city center, yes. Namely on Jalan Dago, to be more precise across from SMANSA. You really have to visit this, especially if you like taking photos. The law is mandatory because sekece is the place 👏🏼 🏡 @kopikisahmanis Jl. Dago No. 98 ⏰ 10am - 10pm. #cafe

Plenty of picturesque corners to snap a photo from. It has themed parks that celebrate places from around Asia. It is an all-around place with various attractions and adventure-themed activities, it has a pool and various boutiques for souvenir items.

I would recommend visiting early as it gets too crowded or maybe it was because it was the holiday season during our visit. Your ticket also comes with a complimentary beverage with tea, hot chocolate, coffee and orange juice as choice.
