Malabar Tea Plantation
A tea plantation managed by the plantation company PTP XIII is just south of Pangalengan. From Bandung this is a full day’s outing, or better still a weekend outing with overnight stay at the company’s Malabar Guest House.
Rooms are $35, by reservation only (Jl. Juanda 107; phone 22-2502049). Guests have access to a special hot spring pool at Cibolang.
Pangalengan Tea Plantation
Another option is a tour of some two hours by car via Dayeuh Kolot to a small market town of Pangalengan, in southeast of Bandung. The town itself is of limited interest, but its surrounding area is quite delightful. Outing destinations from Pangalengan include two small lakes, a hot spring resort, the crater of Mt Wayang nearby, and a large tea plantations. The road network forms a loop from which further roads branch toward Santosa spotted with a tea processing factory, and Mt Papandayan, to Cisewu and on to the south coast. Another road connects to the Ciwidey Valley.
Santosa is lovely area, it offers an overnighting on the tea plantation a relaxing stay away from the rush of city life. A tea plantation managed by the plantation company PTP XIII just south of Pangalengan.
