The Safest Street in the World?
Imagine a street that's home to many of the world's superheroes. It must be the safest place in the world!
This is the thought that often plays in my mind whenever I pass Jalan Cihampelas (Cihampelas Street). I'm not seriously thinking about this, of course. I mean, these superheroes only exist in fictions, and on this street particularly, they are just part of the decorations of the fashion stores lining it. Still, the thought amuses me, not to mention how extraordinary it is to think that so many superheroes "live" in a relatively small place like this.
All that said, this post is the second installment of my coverage of one of Bandung's most famous and fascinating streets. Please check my post yesterday for the first installment of the Cihampelas story.

Don't take dreams away from little boys, Eki. They want to continue believing to Superheroes ! They want to imagine there's a street protected by them, as Giants of the Modern Time.
Far too many superheros for one neighbourhood. Humourous and informative last two posts.
