Tangkuban perahu is an active volcano, situated 30 km north of the city of Bandung in the direction of Lembang. It is the only crater in Indonesia that you can drive up to its very rim. Mount Tangkuban Perahu has a distinctive shape, and looks like an “overturned boat”. The huge crater is an astonishing view and you can walk around and explore this for around two hours. Here you will be greeted by sulfur fumes which the crater continues to emit although the volcano is not active.

 

 Tangkuban Perahu mountain charm is so adorable, even, when the weather is sunny, the curve of the soil on the crater wall can be seen clearly, in contrast with the green trees around the mountain. Not only that, the bottom of the crater can we enjoy the beauty that was amazing. Natural beauty is what makes Tangkuban Perahu become one of the natural attractions mainstay of West Java Province, particularly in Bandung.

Public facilities such as toilets and places of worship (mosque) is also available this location, as well as tourist information centers that are ready to provide various information needed by the tourists around in Bandung and its surrounding attractions for free. It appears that local governments are serious enough to manage this tourist attraction, many facilities already available, although still need to be increased again, especially toilet facilities.
