Place that you can breath a fresh air away from polution, I went to this place last week with a few of friends, we visited a local people in a village there, known as the Dragon Village or "Kampung Naga". The village is located 90Km away from my hometown Bandung West Java.

I tried to make a local craft for a curtain made from bamboo

Cangkuang Temple is 10 kilometers from Tarogong to the North in the direction to Bandung. Beautiful flowers cover the shallow situ. There is a small island in the middle of the lake, namely Cangkuang temple. It is the only Hindu temple that ever found in West Java is the important discovery in the past. Cangkuang has been built in the period of the first Sundanese Kingdom: Galuh Kingdom. Near the temple, there are heritage graves from the Moslem follower Arif Muhammad, who is one of the Mataram Kingdom soldier from Central Java when attacking the Dutch Colonialist in Batavia (now Jakarta), at the 17th Century.

well this is just a very very tiny part of the beauty of my country Indonesia, if you want to know more please get ur self here...and experience all the heritage by urself...Ur Welcome...

Million thanks to Roni for taking me into this trip :) 20/05/2007
