MY EXPERIENCE

As of August 20, 2015, at that time I was very happy to visit the mountain that has a height of 2,084 meters, we originally planned to depart at 7:00 am, even thought our trip was not too far because we were from the city of Cianjur on a motorbike, but in fact, we depart at 10.00 am.

 Short story, we've had much driving, the location is near, and while on the road we've felt the air with coolness typical of this Lembang area. When we had arrived at the gate entrance ticket purchase, when it was around 13:30 noon. We bought tickets, admission price per person is Rp 30.000, - with the parking fee per  1 motorcycle is Rp 17.000, so if one bike there are two people, a total of Rp 77.000.

After buying a ticket, we still have to drive a winding road uphill and sharp headed up the mountain to the main area of Mount Tangkuban Perahu travel a distance of about 2 kilometers. From this trip the smell of sulfur can already smell until later in the main zone travel, so it is recommended to use a mask. When it has to travel the main area of Mount Tangkuban Perahu then seek motor parks. Don’t  worry if you want to toilet or want to pray, near the parking lot there are restrooms and mosque anyway, just pay Rp.2000, - only.

The first crater visited by many first time was Kawah Ratu, why? because the crater  near to the parking of vehicles, the crater at the first location, the crater is the biggest crater perhaps. The crater is not dangerous if we visit her, because of the potential of active and toxic substances low or nonexistent in this crater. And we take pictures together  there just capture moments of togetherness there.

It was getting late and dark, at 17.00 pm had many visitors who return to leave the tourist  area which is famous especially in Bandung and its surroundings. Guard department also reminds all visitors to leave the tourist area. The tourist area is sterilized so that all visitors are safe and monitored regarding  the status of Tangkuban Perahu today. So it does not happen things that are not desirable. Including to traders there, they have closed the stall and left the resort is on the clock, and we also leave the area.

That’s my short experience, thank you J
