Takuban Perahu

Yes! I back after a long break...cause yesterday just celebrated Singapore's 40 th birthday then today i got my test and about 2 hrs ago i received a warning letter for poor attendance...aiyah scared kena debar! I just wanna leave that behind first and continue my story about Bandung! Bandung part 2 !! It is called.........
"Takuban Perahu"
The story behind this Mountain...Well it has not been erupted for few centuarys.... But there's a myth about this place.So the story go like this....
There live a Queen(mother) and a Prince(son) in this fairy world.The mother took care of him with love and care. Till one day, when he became a strong young man..he fall in love with his own mother( whereby the mother still look young and beautiful in spite of her age). But his mother know its impossible so she challenge him, if let's say he can finished building a big boat which size same as the mountain over night, she will get married to him. If not, he can forget the whole idea. He took up the challenge and started working on the big boat. Seeing her son almost managed to finish up the boat, she summon the storm till the boat capsized and this explained why the shape of Takuban Perahu look like a capsized boat.Unhappy with his mum,he forced her to marry him. Eventually, the mother casted a spell on him and he turns out to be an eagle which fly over the skies of takuban perahu. Some people believe the eagle you see flying thru the sky, is the Prince itself. This is just a myth so don say it riduculos or making fun of it.Respect the culture and the believe of diffirent ethnics.
My point of view:
Wah this place reminds me of Scotland..as the strong wind really make you chill.Nice feeling and view. But the only thing that irriated me were a bunch of people who are tounting their products.They will start from the time you got off you car till you got back into your car(i mean end of your trip!) so sian no freedom ...the only trick you can make sure them leave is to buy their product. But of cause they marked up the price, damn expensive leh not worthy..but you can bargain...don promise anything to them like you will buy later... i kena shoot back" Say just now you wanna buy" a man said in bahasa indonesia, Apart from that, the trip will be perfect. Thats the end of my bandung's trip i leave you some captures of Bandung... See you again.
