The trip started from my boarding house (in Grogol) since five o’clock in the morning. Once you arrive at the intersection Grogol, I went straight Jelambar busway station. Because of the morning, at the level of tariffs busway in 2000 dollars. Since the very early days too, which departed TransJakarta also very little, so that makes me have to wait long enough. After almost 20 minutes waiting to get bored, I waiting for finally came busway. With buses are allowed to pass, I crossed Jakarta in the morning, from Grogol in West Jakarta, to the terminal ward Rambutan in East Jakarta.

Prior to the Stop Terminal Kampung Rambutan, the Goddess was waiting at Makro Pasar Rebo Stop. From the bus stop, we continue the journey along the bus are allowed to pass into the Terminal Kampung Rambutan. We arrived at the terminal clock 07:20.

In the Terminal, we immediately look for a bus that will take us to Cipanas. In accordance with the advice of Rizna, we boarded the bus majors Tasik Mother’s Prayer – Jakarta via Puncak. In addition to major bus Tasik – Jakarta, en route to Cipanas can also be reached by bus majors Garut – Jakarta and Bandung – Jakarta provided both via the Peak.

After a long walk slowly while instantaneous ngetem to search passengers, the bus was eventually entered the Jagorawi toll gate at about 8:00. Real journey began.

The trip to Ciawi quite smoothly, since the bus passed the highway. Only a 35 minute trip, the bus had reached the Ciawi. Jams began to attack since at Ciawi. Meter by meter bus crawled through the winding streets and up and down. Residents have a habit of capital spending the holiday weekend outside the city, and the peak areas, Cisarua and surroundings is one of tourist destinations, apart from Bandung and Sukabumi. So you can imagine how congested the road at the top in every weekend, because the cars from jakarta tumplek tin there.

Despite loss, and the Goddess I did not feel so bad mood. Peak landscapes we truly stunning. Seem far away, a few peaks with very gallant stand. Not to mention the fields and hedge-like tea leaves remind us of the atmosphere in the movie The Adventures of Sherina.

After bermacet-ria jam, we finally arrived at Cipanas Market. Clockwise then 10:30 o’clock in the morning. Once off the bus, a very cool breeze welcomed us. Although the sun was shining quite bright, but the atmosphere was very cool.

Rizna are already on stand by to pick us up since 10 mins ago, took a moment to eat at the only fast food restaurant in California that Cipanas Fred Chicken (CFC).

After a full stomach, we also continue the journey. Because we planned to spend the night in Cipanas and back to Jakarta tomorrow morning, so I had to find lodgings. Goddess lodging problem has been wrong, because he slept on his boarding Rizna. After circling and asking around, I finally got a decent place to stay in italics. Only 75 000 only. But it was cheap, there is a price to be automatically covered, namely convenience.

After the lodging business is finished, we were soon hurtling toward a goal, namely Taman Bunga Nusantara Mariwati area. From the market we took public transportation department Cipanas Cipanas – Mariwati. With cost 3000 rupiah per person, we are ushered to the right front page of this flower park.

Flower garden admission price of the archipelago have two options, namely regular tickets and tickets Dotto Trans. A description of this can be seen in the picture. We chose the regular ticket price 15 000 because we are his intentions for a walk, not ride public transportation.

Once inside the park area, we jumped at the incredible view, a large statue of a peacock that is formed from a wide leaves and colorful flowers. Amazing.

After bernarsis joyful moment, we immediately turned our steps toward the right. There we find the Glass House and Gardens Japanese nuances. In this Japanese Garden I was really impressed. Display made seemed to really like being in Japan (tau ya ass, but have never been to Japan, hi hi hi).

Plants and trees formed in such a way to form a view of villages like Japan as I’ve ever seen in the movie The Karate Kid 2. It’s just that there are less than this Japanese garden, the flowers sakuranya. Btw, can not ya cherry blossoms grow in Indonesia?

The trip continued and we encountered Palm Park and the Mediterranean Garden. In the palm garden was planted various species of palm sedangakn Mediterranean garden there are a collection of various types kaskus and desert plants. Especially in this Mediterranean garden atmosphere inside was warm enough. It’s possible to keep the temperature and climate in this Mediterranean area around the park so the cactus and other Mediterranean plants can grow normally like in the area of origin.

Bali Garden menjad our next destination. This park entrance gate of the temple gates like we normally find in Bali. In the Garden of Bali have buildings like the typical Balinese sculptures and statues as well as fish ponds.

Out of the Garden of Bali, we found the view tower which is located right in the middle of the park. To rise up through the elevator or stairs to the manual. If you use the elevator, there are additional costs for 1000 rupiah per person. From the top of the tower pendang we can see the entire area of this flower park. Very beautiful scenery, including the Maze, or better known as the Labyrinth. Actually later wanted to go to the Labyrinth, but since the Goddess and Rizna scared stray, so we went ga go there.

Content to enjoy the scenery at the Tower of View, we got off and headed for the Fountain. The fountain was cool loh. Water discharge to follow the strains of the song playing. Again and again, ah jeprat first snap.

Afterwards we walked toward the American Garden. I think the park is an ordinary American aja. Nothing special. But rather in the American garden gazebo that could have made a short break. Was so tired from walking around.

Taking a break, we look around the map, just to plan the next trip.

After 10 minutes, stretch the legs, we continued our journey. Hollywood Park this time for France. If this brilliant garden. Cool garden design. There are leaves shaped like the Gate with a beautiful ornate fountain. Anyway cool easy. Liat aja photos, I can not explain anymore. Seeing this park I can not say a word.

Next to the Rose Garden. Actually, this park is good, but unfortunately this time the roses bloom again slightly, so the ordinary impression aja.

Our feet were going. Feasting inch by inch of land in this beautiful park on akhinrya until we arrived at Goose Pond. Some geese were living peacefully in this pool. There are white, and some black. They appeared to really enjoy their life in the midst of this vast pool.

And Swimming Goose seems to be a “vehicle” to our latest visit. Since then we’ve got back on the road to the gates of the Garden Flower. If the calculated total of more than three hours we ate this flower park area. Was also tired. But it was not fixed and tired because we were very, very satisfied.

Once out of this flower park, we continued our journey towards the summit. Our goal is Atta’awun Mosque. From the flower garden, we took public transportation to the market for cipanas first and then connected with public transportation to the summit.

Until there was already a very busy atmosphere. Many people who want to enjoy the sunset on it while waiting for maghrib adzan reverb. Cold began to attack. Fortunately the fog that day does not go down, so the scene sun sink into the western horizon still looks very clear. Take the first photo … ah. Snap.

After the maghrib prayer, hunger was attacked. We also took the fried rice to eat first before turning to the Cipanas. Up in Cipanas, we have been very tired. I took myself to go to boarding Rizna first. Taking a break while watching a DVD together Rattatouile who intentionally take.

When the clock showed 21:20 o’clock at night, I returned to the hotel and immediately fell asleep once lay down in bed.

Tomorrow morning, we are a time to jog while enjoying the morning air Cipanas very cool. After that I had packed and Goddess to get back to Jakarta. Previously, we enjoyed the chicken porridge once a very famous Cianjur. Apparently it’s commonplace aja. Or am I the wrong place to buy it?

After a full stomach, and I was saying goodbye to the Goddess Rizna and ready to go back to Jakarta. See you Cipanas. Sooner or later, we will travel there again.
