Instagrammable Spots At Puncak You Cannot Miss

When people think of Indonesia, they often picture the gorgeous island of Bali. But there's another paradise waiting to be explored in the mountains of Puncak - and the best thing is, it's just a short drive from Jakarta. It’s known for its stunning scenery, serene atmosphere, and place that offers plenty of family-friendly activities for travelers of all ages.

While most visitors to Puncak come for its natural scenery, there are also a few hidden gems and unique photo spots worth checking out. If you're looking for an Instagrammable spot that's off the beaten path, then you won’t want to miss these 3 top-picks by our team at Novus Giri!

1. Sakura Park at Cibodas Botanical Garden
When you think of Japan, the Cherry Blossom season is an image that comes to mind. Now you don’t have to fly to the land of the rising sun to witness the beauty of sakura. Planted in 1971, Cibodas Botanical Garden is home to four types of sakura trees and they have become an icon that attracts visitors from all over West Java and beyond. The trees bloom twice a year in February and August, so make sure to research ahead to find out when it is best to visit to take your best shot.

2. Heritage trip at Tridharma Temple
Take a trip down the heritage lane to a defunct Buddhist Temple at the heart of Cianjur, a short 20-minute drive from Novus Giri. Little is known about this Tridharma temple, dubbed the mini-version of the famous Borobudur Temple in Magelang. Located at the top of a hill surrounded by a local tea plantation, which lends the temple an exotic air, this ancient temple is a hidden gem not known by many. So when you’re there, soak up the green scenery and fresh air while you revel in the culturally-rich architecture and beautiful stupa. Don’t forget to immortalize the moment with your camera before you leave.
