St Peter's Cathedral

Reviewed By L6641FCleoc

I attended Sunday Mass when visiting Bandung City in October. It is just a wonder, when I attend Mass in Indonesia, that Catholics in Indonesia look more faithful than people in any other parts of the world. I always become so excited and healed when I attend Mass there. St. Peter's Cathedral in Bandung is located in the center of the city, and of course a beautiful church. I am so proud of Catholics in Indonesia who keep their faith to Christ in not-Christian-friendly environment. If you are Catholic and visiting Bandung, please come and pray to Lord at St. Peter's.

I arrived in Bandung on the fourth day of my private tour, there are still 10 days left of my time to explore Java with Mr.Edu from Java Private Tour. The tea plantations, the cool temperature and the landscapes are so mesmerizing and catch my eye, I admit Java is a very interesting place to explore, I came here for several reasons, and everything was accomplished in one day, tea, durian, photography and sunset. Thank you Indonesia, thank you tripadvisor and thank you Java Private Tour.

Villa Isola

Reviewed By TrixieAblan - Ilocos Region, Philippines

Around 7km north of the centre, Villa Isola is a landmark art deco building, a four-storey villa built by a Dutch media baron in the 1930s as a private residence. The original purpose of the building was for Berretty's private house, but then it was transformed into a hotel after his death and now it serves as the headmastership office of the University of Education Indonesia. This was designed by Schoemaker, a Dutch architect, painter whose art deco style was inspired, influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright, Javanese philosophy and ornamental elements amongst others. The use of circular shapes and terraces are found to be similar to the shapes of Buddhist and Hindu structures in mid and east Java. History has it that building the Villa Isola almost drove Willem Berretty into bankruptcy, and on its opening he made sure to have a launch ceremony complete with journalists and friends. After Berretty’s death, the building was used as a hotel, then as the Japanese army headquarters during Japan’s invasion (1942). After Indonesia’s independence in 1945, the building was re-named to Bumi Silwangi and now it is used as a University Building.
