Bandung: A Favorite Escape and Insights into 2025 Travel Trends

What makes Bandung so irresistible? Is it the nostalgia of Dilan movies or the soulful vibe of Yura Yunita’s song Bandung? Beyond being a muse for art and music, Bandung holds a special place in the hearts of Indonesian travelers, offering a mix of cool weather, mouthwatering culinary experiences, stylish shopping spots, and rich history.

No wonder 14% of Indonesians—especially those from Jabodetabek—call Bandung their go-to escape. Whether it’s a quick weekend getaway or a longer vacation, Bandung’s easy access makes it even more appealing. The Cipularang toll road keeps road trips smooth and fast, and now, with the Whoosh high-speed train, Jakarta to Bandung takes just 30 minutes. Spontaneous trips have never been easier (or more exciting, perhaps!).
