The distant from Jakarta to Bandung approx 130km but it took us around 3 hours due to heavy traffic or they called it "macet" in Indonesia . This is normal situation in Jakarta and Bandung since they have very huge population and vehicles especially motorcycle . We drove through the highway and along the way , you can judge the different weather between Jakarta and Bandung . Jakarta is much more hotter compared to Bandung . Bandung , being at the highland and mountain  , is much more cooler .

well come to Bandung




At Bandung , firstly we check in at our hotel , Hotel Sensa . This hotel is situated at Cihampeles , where you can find big modern shopping mall Ciwalk and cheap hawkers shops located along the road . The hotel ... what I would like to say , it is really meet my expectation ....the staff really friendly and helpful , the hotel appearance really modern and the decor really up to date .
