Allow me to join you then, as I am a big fan of Orchid.
This wonderful flower has long been stealing my attention (and my heart) for its unique appearance, mysterious aura, and purple shades.
Well, obviously not all orchids are purple but most of them are!
Welcome to Orchid Forest, Cikole. |
Check out my previous post on De Ranch Lembang when we had fun riding horses and horse-drawn carriage in such a beautiful environment, with Mount Gede-Pangrango at the backdrop.
After spending around 2.5 hours at De Ranch, we decided to go further up to see Cikole.
My husband loved this place because he used to go downhill with his team here.
This is one of his videos there.
So when we drove up from Cikole gate, we asked the officers in charge what attractions are available up there. He told us about Orchid Forest which is just recently opened and that it's a beautiful picnic spot with so many Instagramable spots.
Without further due, we paid the tickets and off we went up.
Here's some snapshots from our trip to Orchid Forest, Cikole, West Java.
It is truly a beautiful and peaceful place.
It took us around 1 hour 30 minutes drive from Bandung to Cikole.
Through Jalan Raya Tangkuban Perahu or the the main road to Lembang, the trip might be a bit tricky due to traffic.
But beautiful surroundings, fantastic view, cool fresh air, and wonderful orchid forest is waiting so it worths the trip.
The ticket is only Rp 30.000,- per person (adult and kids I guess) and Rp 30.000,- for car parking. I believe it its cheaper for motorcycle. Since the forest is located slightly up in the hill, we still have to drive for about 20 minutes up from the gate.

I really love this moss ball! super cute! |
Orchid Forest Cikole is located at Cikole, Lembang, Bandung, West Java.
This place is open at 9 AM to 6 PM.
As we came here during the weekend, it was quite packed. Many groups were coming to this place as well at that time. So you could hear dangdut music here and there LOL.
But one thing for sure, everyone was having FUN!
