Sometime ago I joined a tour of prehistoric Bandung organized by our friends at Mahanagari. The tour took and let us explore various geographical locations of interests, particularly those in the west of city, where we can learn first hand of the geological evidence about the Bandung plateau in prehistoric time. The tour began at Saguling, a hydroelectric power generation dam located on the Citarum River in West Bandung Regency.
At the start of the tour, our guide (see the picture) showed us a reconstructed map of the prehistoric Bandung and explained to us that some 10,000 years ago, Bandung plateau was a lake.
To be continued tomorrow.
Beberapa waktu yang lalu saya mengikuti tur Bandung purba yang diadakan oleh kawan-kawan kami dari Mahanagari. Tur dimulai dari PLTA Saguing yang membendung sungai Citarum di daerah Saguling, Kabupaten Bandung Barat. Di awal tur, pamandu kami memperlihatkan peta dan menjelaskan kepada kami peta dan menjelaskan kepada kami bahwa sekitar 10.000 tahun yang lalu, dataran tinggi Bandung adalah sebuah danau.
