Top Muslim Travel Tips for Lembang

DSC00003 Java Ouest Tangkuban Prahu Bandung North (6220087230)

  • Tangkuban Perahu The most well known mountain in Bandung. Called so because it resembles a capsized boat from a distance. There are three craters and the main crater Ratu and the secondary Upas right next to it, and the small Domas 20 minutes away downhill on foot from the two craters. While you cannot get down to the crater because of its very steep elevation (and is fenced), you can still enjoy the marvelling view of Ratu and Upas. It's a photographer's paradise! Unfortunately, most Muslim visitors only tend to see these two craters and forget Domas and the only crater that can get you an up close and personal encounter. You'll feel what a typical volcano has to offer, such as bubbling mud, boiling water, and hissing smell of sulphur, within a safe distance of course. You can even boil an egg by dunking it in the hot water! But to see Domas Crater you have to hire formal guide which in fact it is not necessary. That being said, if you do not want to buy anything, politely and persistently say "No" to the pushy vendors that sell souvenirs and the other vendors will not offer you anymore, because they offer someone in a queue.
  • Hot spring resorts can be found on the northern side of the Tangkuban Perahu volcano, in the town of Ciater.
  • Kebun Begonia resembles Keukenhof and the tulip park in Lisse and the Netherlands, with many colourful flowers.
  • Farm House Susu Lembang Theme park with European-style buildings.

Halal Restaurants in Lembang

  • Kampung Daun (Sundanese) food. You eat at a hut in the middle of valley near a small waterfall and river. At night it's really amazing to walk along candlelit pathways. Eating out really means eating out here. The atmosphere here is enchanting and magical. Lots of trees, bushes and secluded "pondok" small huts for relaxing and food, cool as it is set in a valley with the sound of running water from the waterfall beside you. Food prices are higher than in Bandung because you need to cover the cost of the use of the huts.
  • The Peak Resort Dining
  • Warung Sate Kelinci Pa Sapri Known for the sate kelinci or rabbit satay (skewers) and the restaurant also has a few other dishes including Chicken satay and goat satay, as well as fried Noodles and Rice.

Lembang is known in Indonesia for its milk production, and many shops, roadside stalls, and cafés in and around the town sell susu segar Lembang (fresh milk from Lembang).
