One of the main objectives of the natural attractions is Parahu Queen Crater. Object which is about 30 km from the city of Bandung can be reached easily through the Bandung-Ledeng-Lembang (15 km) and the Lembang-Tangkuban Parahu (15 km).
For motorcycles, there is an alternative path, Lembang, Bandung through Dago and Pagerwangi which is about 5 km, translucent in La Oma Cafe and Market Lembang. The road has been well, but there are some steep hairpin bends we will find a new view of Bandung from the heights.
From Lembang, we will travel a distance of about 11 km to the Subang to reach the main gate attractions. To be able to enter tourist areas, per person will be subject to tariff Rp 12,500 and Rp 9,000 for the car, USD 4,000 for motorcycles, and Rp 17,500 for the bus. After buying tickets we will travel a distance of 4 km to reach the main crater of the Queen Crater.
In the parking lot, we may find the inscription in relief as shown in the photograph. I wonder what the story about it, whether the story of Dayang Sumbi Sangkuriang
The following photos are the view of Queen Crater as seen from the parking lot and from the opposite side. Very beautiful is not it? Although it seems we can down the crater but was prohibited because of poisonous gas at any time that may be dangerous.
