Aerial View of Bandung: Southwest of The Grand Mosque



Here is an aerial view of Bandung looking to the southwest direction from the city center. I took this photo from one of the towers of West Java Provincial Grand Mosque or Mesjid Agung Propinsi Jawa Barat. In the foreground, behind the minaret, you can see Plaza Parahiyangan, one of the first shopping malls built in the city in the early 1980's.

  2. Thanks for the info, Pia.

    Palaguna and Parahyangan Plaza were among the first shopping malls built in the city in late 1970s and early 1980's.
