Places visited .....
The first sight of this crater really wows me. We went in the morning (8am local time) and takes about an hour to reach. It was cold and wind was constantly blowing. I wish to have some peace in admiring this beauty but couldn't stand the sulfur smell (really stink) and being pester to use their horse and buy their stuff. There is an observation deck where sellers were not allow up. Yipee! But there were 2 'professional cameramen' up on the observation deck. Cis! Anyhow, I'm glad my hubby insist of coming here as I decided not to go due to bad feedback on this popular tourist attraction. According to my driver, this place is ever filled with visitors, both locals and tourists.
If you have been to Tambun Hot Spring, Perak (some 25 years ago) or more recent ones like Sg Klah Sungkai, Perak then don't bother going to Sari Ater. To me a waste of time.
Cooling. A bit sulfur smell, bearable. Here, you'll get to walk on the crater itself. How cool is that? BUT the drive takes approx. 2 hours. My children slept all the way up and all the way down.

Situ Padengan Lake
Lovely, calm, green, can go boat riding. Just like our Taiping Lake but less commercialise.
5.
Saung Angklung Udjo
It was their yearly open day when we went. (No need to pay entrance fee and performance fee) Anyway the performance was scheduled in the afternoon. We did catch a bit of their rehearsal. The kids are so talented and seems enjoying themselves instead of having stage fright. If you have the time do visit this place. With the traffic madness in Bandung getting to Angklung Udjo takes about 45 minutes. Their daily performance hour is from 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm.

Verdict : For me, The Valley is a class of its own. These restaurants are kids friendly. The Valley has a playground. BUT mind you to bring mosquito repellant. We were feeding the mosquitos. The worst was at The View. Hannah's hands were full of mosquito bites.
Local food in Bandung generally is not spicy and somehow their fried chicken is really yummy.
