Indonesia Day 7 : Geological Museum - Bandung Chinatown - Train to Yogyakarta

1000  - Checkout, rode to Gedung Sate which cannot enter since it's a government builing. We can take photo from the outside. Then we went to the Geological Museum which is quite near from the Gedung State. This museum is very informative about the volcano and natural formaiton. There have a lot of fossils and minerals.

1230 - Went to Bandung Chinatown. This is not like the usual Chinatown which is opened for public. This is like a theme park which need entrance fee of IDR10k. To eat he food here, you need to buy a card which cost IDR 25k and need to top up for the food price that you want. The food price is very expensive, so we are not eating lunch here. We took a lot of photos.

1530 - Went out to find some snack to eat. Then rode to Murtabak Andir which is a very famous stall in Bandung. The murtabak is very expensive. We called one and couldn't finish eat as the portion is very large. Eating first few pieces is very delicious but it was not that good at the end as we called Pandan Corn Cheese which have a lot of cheese. We just take away the left one. There is a stall outside selling different murtabak which have meat and cheaper.

1700 - Went back to guesthouse and bring out backpack to train station. This motor carried 2 person, 2 big backpack and 2 small backpack at a time to the train station since the distance is quite short.

1730 - Returned the motorbike at the train station, checked in to get the orange ticket.

1830 - Get on train. This time the seat type that I booked was business class with each row have 4 people, 2 people sharing a single big seat and the seat back is fixed and slanted a bit which is better for long journey.

Horse cart can be seen on the street

Real Fossils?

So many minerals

In the Bandung Chinatown, there are many mural arts.


The translated chinese look very weird





Since eating in the Chinatown is very expensive, we solved our hunger by eating this cheap fried food.

Found another cheap juice stall which is just IDR 7k for avocado juice.

The Corn Pandan Cheese Murtabak IDR 95k!

This is the advantage of using scooter, the big backpack can put at the front!
