West Bandung, Administrative region in West Java, Indonesia
West Bandung extends across 1,767 square kilometers of varied terrain at 680 meters elevation, containing sixteen distinct districts with Ngamprah as its capital.
The formation of West Bandung as an independent regency occurred on January 2, 2007, following administrative reforms that reorganized the territorial structure of West Java.
The population maintains Sundanese traditions through local ceremonies, music performances, and regional cuisine that reflects centuries of agricultural heritage in the area.
The regency connects to major transportation networks linking Jakarta and Bandung, providing essential infrastructure for commerce and daily commuting across West Java.
West Bandung's elevated position creates favorable conditions for tea and coffee cultivation, supporting numerous plantations that supply Indonesia's agricultural market.
