Gunung Tangkuban Parahu is one of the iconic tourist attractions in West Java.
The name Tangkuban Parahu is derived from the mountain's shape, which resembles an upside-down giant boat. According to the website of the Taman Wisata Alam Tangkuban Parahu, this inverted boat shape is due to the presence of two adjacent craters located to the west and east.
Situated at an elevation of 2,084 meters above sea level, Gunung Tangkuban Parahu features active craters that attract visitors, including Kawah Ratu, Kawah Upas, Kawah Baru, and Kawah Domas.
Additionally, it is worth noting that a donation for Agam Rinjani from Brazilian netizens has been canceled, and the reasons for this are provided.
Where is Tangkuban Parahu located? Administratively, this mountain is situated in Lembang, within the Bandung Barat Regency and Subang Regency. Gunung Tangkuban Parahu is located approximately 20 kilometers north of the city of Bandung.
In addition to the active crater, Mount Tangkuban Parahu is also equipped with outbound facilities, an educational garden, a mosque, a viewing tower, a cultural stage, parking areas, a health post, souvenir shops, and a multipurpose hall.
