Day one.
Enjoy approximately 3 hours drive from Jakarta, where we have to visit Tea Plantation for making short photo in Puncak Pass the border Cianjur and Bogor. Continue drive through to Floating Village.
It has been around since the 1980s and is commonly known as Cirata. Actually the lake is set for a Hydro Electric Power Plant to operate covering Java and Bali. Consisting of 5,081,358 m2 of dry land and 66,031,466 m2 water in the area, it is currently inhabited by many and there are 45,000 Floating Houses within the village.
The main function of the reservoir is as a powerhouse, but there are also a plethora of activities and developments in the region of Cirata, including agricultural irrigation, flood control, water conservation and fisheries.
It is approximately 17 km away to visit the floating village from Cianjur Regency and you will take a boat around the lake village, and you will also get a special massage - but the masseur is not as you would expect, it is not a human, but instead, many small fish will nibble away at the dry skin on your feet, quite a treat!
And then enjoying a Sunset on the go back to the Homestay.
A night in the Homestay, you can learn about the Sundanese ethnicity and culture as part of the diverse combination of races and cultures throughout Indonesia. We hope you will see for yourself the differences in our communities and local people.
Day Two.
Cianjur Tea Plantation is one of the third largest in West Java. Along the journey from Bogor to Cianjur you will see the Tea Plantations begin from Cisarua Puncak Pass and the landscape surrounding the Mount Gede Pangrango.
Cianjur is consequentially one of the main contributors of tea for export to other countries, with more than 30% production of national tea plantations originating from Cianjur. Currently, tea is a lead commodity in the province of West Java and Cianjur Regency.
So to get to a Tea Plantation in Cianjur, it is approximately 30 minutes drive to the location of these vast plantations (around 10 -15 km away). You can watch the pickers as they work during the day in the plantation, wearing a typical hat, called a “Cetok” in Sundanese. You can walk around to the tea plantation to take some pictures and see the incredible sight of the carpet of green fields, cascading down the hillside. Black tea are prepared for you, so that you can sample a cup of tea from that plantation. After that you will see the journey of the process at the factory, how to make Black tea from the beginning to the end.
