Old but Gold at Taman Bunga Nusantara

        First of all I am terribly sorry if the picture that I put in this blog wasn’t mine because I lost all the pictures, so I took it from another website and I will absolutely tell you where I got the pictures below down my blog. Okay! So let’s get started.

        It’s quite an old story but I really loved every moment there so I’m gonna let you know the story. Few years ago I went to Taman Bunga Nusantara that located in Cianjur, Jawa Barat. I went there with my family and my grandparents too, we went there by car. We were a domestic tourists and our purpose were for vacational tourism, it took 6 hours to reached there, it is such a bad idea to came there at eid holidays time because the traffic jam was awful. But, fortunately my grandma such a funny old lady she made jokes for us so we dont feel bored in the car.

        With an extra waiting finally we arrived there, when I arrived there the air was stiil fresh (well I hope until now still the same tho).  There is so many Street vendors that selling their wares such as : roasted corn (the spicy one is my fave), scarf, fresh flowers, gloves, beanie, moci, gemblong, coffee, very cute marchendise and soooooo on. I still remember that I bought a glass of milk because the weather is very cold (well ofcouse its still fresh) and I thought I would be lovely to bought one.



        Before we entering the Taman Bunga we bought the enterance tickets first, each ticket cost 30.000-, rupiahs, Not really expensive I supposed. the first thing I saw inside the Taman Bunga Nusantara is a lovely waterpool with a litlle cute water fountain in the middle (as you can see in the picture), around the waterpool there is a flowers that are arranged into a lovely vast carpet, not only arranged into a carpet but into an animal and trees too. I was so amazed, so I ran to the flowers that arranged into the carpet to took a closer look for every details.




        Not far from the pool area, there is a sign post. From here we can travel Taman Bunga Nusantara overall, such as : Taman Perancis, Air Mancur Musikal, Taman Amerika, Dahlia Corner, wira wiri, Rumah Kaca and Taman Jepang.

        While walking I saw a maze and not far from the maz there is tower where we can see the people walking around the maze from the above. Before I got into the maze I climbed the stairs to get on the tower and from I saw from the tower the maze isn’t that complicated, but people in the maze seem so confused to find a way out. So I thought that would be easy to walking in the maze, so I got into the maze and I got lost............. yes I got lost and confused I’m pretty sure that the way out is right there but it was just a dead end, it took me along time to got out but finally I did get out.




        From the maze I went to the Taman Jepang (fortunately I have a photo in this place). In Taman Jepang I felt like that I am in Japan because of the Decoration made us felt like we are in Japan. That was so interesting.
                                                                 (I took it by myself)




        After exploring Taman Bunga Nusantara I got Tired and decided to recess, but after that my father told us that we be leaving the Taman Bunga soon so after that I came to my father and then we got home. I am so happy that I could exploring the Taman Bunga Nusantara I hope I can do it again next time.!
