I think Bogor not only Palace, Is Bogor also have big supermall as such in JKT ?
From JKT to Bogor only 1 hour, right. I got informations so many people work in JKT live in Bogor.......

Yes Bogot is well developed like Jakarta
Infact Bogor is still a part from Metro Jakarta (Jakarta, Bogor, Tangerang, Bekasi)

As suburban of Jakarta
Bogor develop as residential area where people live at night and work in Jakarta during day time

the one thing i don t like about bogor is the traffic, especially at the weekends and the crowded footpaths, crowded with vendors. i was in rangkasbitung the other day, that place is worth a thread on its own, sooooooooooo clean and tidy

No, unfortunately not yet, but I really want to go to Indonesia and to Bogor when I got the time. :)

I found these picture just by incident when I was googling around. I always wanted to know how the interior of these buildings are.

Bogor rocks :)
My grandma lives here (I'm half Indonesian)

As far as I remember Bogor have a huge town/park named Kebon raya. And a lot of bike-taxi's (becak(?)) :)
Also there was a mountain, Punjak or something
My grandma's house was close to a market, I think. I remember there was a cinema.
But the last time I was there I was only 9. So it's eleven years ago :)
