Bogor, Administrative center in West Java, Indonesia
Located 60 kilometers south of Jakarta, Bogor spans across valleys at the foot of Mount Salak and Mount Gede, creating a cooler temperature year-round.
The city transformed from Pakuan Pajajaran, capital of the Sunda Kingdom, to Buitenzorg under Dutch rule, becoming a strategic colonial administrative center.
The streets of Bogor present a mixture of Sundanese and Javanese influences through traditional markets, local food stalls, and regular community celebrations.
Two main railway stations and multiple bus terminals connect Bogor to Jakarta, with trains departing every 15 minutes during peak hours.
The Bogor Botanical Gardens contain 87 hectares of plant collections, research facilities, and a zoological museum that holds specimens from the 19th century.
