Many food stalls around the area serving local delicacies.

Paris Van Java Shopping Mall in Bandung is one of the popular shopping spots for the locals and also tourist. Located at Jalan Setiabudi, everyone and anyone in Bandung knows about PVJ as the locals call it. The name Paris Van Java came about because back in the day, Bandung was know as the Paris Of Java.

One of the shopping location in Bandung is Pasar Baru but this place is more for the locals as the products here are lower quality and local products. The factory Outlets offer better quality and more choices.

Make a second trip to Bandung again for shopping with friend and their relatives. Strictly shopping and no sighseeing as Bandung is famous for their Factory Outlets.
