What to do and see in Bogor, Java: The Best Things to do Good for Kids

May 21, 2022 Etsuko Causey

Bogor is near enough to Jakarta to be a suburb but is also the third largest city in Indonesia and was once capital of the Sunda Kingdom. The city is at a slightly higher elevation than Jakarta and so offers a respite from the high temperatures and humidity of the city. With a world renowned botanical garden and a presidential palace (including massive herds of tiny deer), Bogor offers enough attractions to be worthy of a side trip of several days.  Bogor is renowned for having a wide variety of cuisine and also offers golf courses, tennis and other recreational activities.

Bogor Botanical Gardens

Reviewed By LN0779

When i joined Bogor Half Marathon Race last week, i spent my last 5k running here at Bogor Botanical Garden. It was nice running here with fresh air, beautiful scenery and lots of green. Love the big old trees around the gardens and their beautiful heritage building, "Istana Presiden Bogor" with some cute deers at the yard. They also have a beautiful cozy old hotel inside the garden. (Someday i love to stay there). So, it's a nice place to visit when you stay at Bogor. Good place for refresh your mind, body and soul. It's perfect for enjoying "me time" jogging or walking there or having fun with your beloved ones!!
