On last semester's holiday, I went to Bandung City. City of Bandung for me is a favorite place for holidays. Apart from the location for holidays because there are many tours that can be visited, in Bandung City is also famous for shopping and many places for delicious culinary. I vacation in Bandung for 3 days. During my vacation in the city of Bandung, I lived with my cousin, on Dago Street in Bandung City because my cousin was studying at ITB in Dago area. Actually I have come to Bandung several times when I was little with my family to visit my uncle and aunt who lives in Bandung, but the last vacation was the last time I went to Bandung after I grew up and I just went alone.
On my first day and my cousin went to a culinary tour on Dago Street. There are a lot of culinary delights. We leave at night because we have to wait for my cousin to finish college. Our holiday schedule is different when the campus has begun to actively study while my campus has just been off. Therefore when I want to travel I have to adjust the first time. We went to several places that were really popular in the Dago area, namely Cocorico cafe. We choose the cafe because the view of the city of Bandung can be enjoyed from the cafe which is located on a hill and of course the price of the food matches most of students like us.

On the second day, my cousin and I went for a walk to a tourist spot that was quite far from the Dago area. Incidentally we went with my cousin's friends and also my boyfriend, so we rented a car to get there. Our destination for the day was to go to the Lembang area because the popular tourist attractions in Bandung were in the Lembang area on average. Our first destination is to Floating Market which is full of culinary on a boat. so traders sell on boats and the payment system uses coins that must be exchanged first. I think this is very unique compared to other culinary places. Not only culinary, the Floating Market also has a very recent photo spot. The spot that I like the most is the very beautiful flower garden like in overseas.

Then we head to Orchid Forest Cikole Lembang. When I got there I felt the real atmosphere of Bandung. Towering pine forest, cool air and Sundanese music accompaniment that adds to the beauty of the place. This place is very suitable for young people and also to gather with family. We did choose a place that was popular in the city of Bandung so that we could take picture and find out how beautiful the place was and the most important thing so we were not curious. There are some very beautiful photo spots to be immortalized like a long suspension bridge and if in the afternoon, along the bridge there are lights that decorate which makes me more happy to linger there.

Because indeed the trip was quite far then our last destination was to Punclut and we arrived there at night. There we came to a cafe that had a very beautiful view named is Lereng Anteng Panoramic Coffee. The cafe there isn't like a cafe in general. This cafe is made of transparent plastic so if seen very beautiful with the lights that decorate it plus a view from the top of a very beautiful hill. We really enjoyed the atmosphere jokingly singing together. Actually there are still many places that we want to visit but because of the little time so we only come to 3 places.

On the third day I went shopping for souvenirs for my family and friends in Lampung. I go to Dago area or what is commonly called Ciwalk (Cihampelas Walk) or rather at Skywalk Cihampelas with my boyfriend. The area is indeed a lot of people who sell souvenirs such as food, clothes, and other typical Bandung with prices cheaper than other places. Afters hopping, my boyfriend and I went to my aunt's house who used to visit me a lot if I went to Bandung, her house was still around Hussein Sastranegara Airport so I visited and said goodbye to back go home.

I really enjoy the atmosphere in Bandung every second. In my opinion Bandung is indeed a beautiful, romantic and also a clean city. Different from the cold atmosphere but the community is very warm and friendly especially to newcomer like me.The place and people with me while I was in Bandung also added excitement during my holiday. It seems that Bandung is one of the cities that I will never get bored of visiting.
