Hey everybody,its still plenty place to visit around bandung instead of shopping....if you go to the east you can visit hot spring like:

www.kampungsampireun.com
www.kampungsumberalam.com
www.danaudariza.com

and etc.

All these place its 1 hour away from bandung towards east....
Near tangkuban perahu there is also hot spring called ciater resort...

If you like play golf there is also golf resort close
www.bgggolfresort.com
the scenery is nice,I like having breakfast there....its so cheap.

The other famous place to visit is:

Situ pattenggang
Kawah Putih
Situ cangkuang
Taman Insinyur haji Juanda.....visit the old cave and you can go hiking to mount tangkuban perahu.
If you like to go eat....

Suis butcher,athmosphere,roemah kebun,the peak dago,warung lela,cihampelas walk...and still many more.

for hire a car,if I am the one who rent,the price usually 350-400 / day thousand rupiah with the driver...and for that price you got 2008 nice toyota car.
price 200-250/day is like suzuki APV type....

If you wnaa really cheap you can take angkot....depends on distance...the nearest you go cost 2000 rupiah.....the problem is you have to know the route....otherwise it will take you miles away.

I am born and live in Bandung....but I thinkbandung still many more than just shopping place....

well if you need help just message me...

I've been planning to go to Bandung this May. I want to ask about Duti Fee or whatever it is called. My friends told me that we must pay a certain amount of fee before we depart from Bandung airport. He told me it is not Custom Tax. That Duti fee is a must even we don't buy anything at Bandung. Is it true? How much is it then?

and how much is the cost for transport from airport to Hotel Amaris (near Jl Cihampelas & Hotel Sukajadi)?..

anyone can suggest me best local brand (distro)?..planning to buy a few jeans that cannot be found in Malaysia..hehe..

ohoh..another one..which one is better? convert RM to Rupiah in Malaysia or in Bandung?..

thx!

normally i will book hotel myself and use transportation by 'agus' because it's cheaper than package. I always use Agus whenever i went to bandung, very realiable driver. However, he also provides packages for hotel+transportation all-in including airport transfer which is also quite cheap. i just booked with him for my relatives of 6pax for 4d3n for a price of only rm300per pax for apartment hotel at braga citywalk. his price also depends on hotel range. if you want to stay at arion swissbell(4star) will be rm350 per pax for 4d3n.

if u guy wanna his contact can just pm me.

BTW, Barang Bekas Shop is actually selling 2nd hand stuff. But the stuffs are good. My husband bought a very nice original BOSS blazer for RM50. Original price can fetch to RM200. I bought drum stick for my nephew for RM10. My nephew did mentioend the brand but I forgot already. The brand that normally drummer always use.

In Bandung, the local call this shop as toko BABE (short form for kedai Barang Bekas)

was it a ProMark drumstick?? that's awesome if I can get that in a really cheap price!! I wanna go there.. do you still remember where's the exact place?
by the way, how about using your phone there? buy a new indonesia simcard or what?
