Jakarta Little Tokyo (Ennichisai) and Rachel K CC Cream Giveaway [Indonesia Only!]

Hello everyone! I wish you a Happy Vesak day! May this Vesak brings you peace and happiness, especially for those who celebrate it! 

Actually I planned to visit Borobudur temple this Vesak because I would love to see the Lantern Festival on the night of Vesak. But, I ran out of the ticket (train) and I can't find reasonable price for going there by car (after all, I'm jobless). So the plan was cancelled! I was going to die out of boredom because it's weekend. Fortunately enough, one of my friend told me that there's this festival called Ennichisai 2013. 

Ennichisai is an annual Japanese art and culinary festival held in Melawai (or called Little Tokyo), Blok M, Jakarta. The two-day festival will take place on May 25 and 26 and attracts up to 200,000 visitors each tear and has been chosen as one of Jakarta's tourism agenda.

3-Day Short Trip to Central Java - DAY 1: Bandungan

Last time, around the end of March I went for a short 3-day trip to Central Java along with my fellow college friends. Two of them came from Semarang, which located in Central Java too. Actually, at first we planned to do this trip  as a farewell trip since most of us graduated already, but the rest of the gank couldn't make it, so it was only 4 of us including me.

DAY 1 - Semarang and Bandungan

We took the economy class train (only cost me Rp 33.000 or USD 3.37) at 9 pm and arrived in Semarang in the morning. It was fun, though it was economy class, with straight 90 degrees seats and no air-con inside, our laughter burst into the night making it wonderful trip.

Arriving at Stasiun Tawang, then we took the taxi all the way to one of my friends' house; Reni in Pedurungan area. When we arrived, her parents are away for work and I quickly took some bites and dozed off. LOL.

After that, another friend came with her boyfried; Vita and Kak Arif and we planned to visit Bandungan to see Candi Gedong Songo!! I was really excited because we've read an article telling that there's this pine forest dupe for the one in Twilight Saga movies! OK, I'm not a Twi-hards, I just love the idea of pine forest. Haha.

Then off we go!

It took around 2 hours to reach Bandungan from Semarang by car and the sightseeing is just lovely with all greenies on the right and left. The road was pretty bumpy and dangerous but well, the visit will worth journey anyway.

hello from Bandungan!

So, we arrived! 

To enter this site, you will only have to pay Rp 6.000 on weekdays and Rp 7.000 on weekends and holidays  (both fares are less than USD 1). But, if you are a foreign tourist, you have to pay for Rp 50.000 (USD 5.10). Well, that's a lot of differences, almost 10 times compared to local fares.
