Floating market in Lembang

Lembang is located North of Bandung. In Lembang you will find the “floating market”.

You may know the term “floating market” from Thailand, but the floating market of Lembang is not the same. Don’t expect to find a traditional authentic floating market in Lembang.
Here you find a beautiful park that was built a few years ago around a lake, with some attraction and plenty of local food. The park is mainly aimed at local tourists.

You can try delicious Indonesian snacks and buy nice souvenirs from the various boats. The boats are not authentic and are not made to actually sail, but they sell great food.
If you like good food and enjoy tasting different dishes from different parts of Indonesia, you will have a great time.
Order your food from the various boats and eat together at one of the many tables where you can sit.

The park is also nice for young children. There is a high slide and you can go out on the water with a boat or pedalo. The air is fresh and the park is full of beautiful flowers and plants.
You encounter many local tourists, and selfies and “photo shoots” are being taken everywhere.

Near the Floating Market is the Bosscha observatory. If you look closely you can see the observatory in the hills next to the park.
