"The big and as good as this, small musholanya deh," said a mother who resentful because she had to coincide-to perform the crush of midday prayers at the Kampung Gajah.
"Please say yes as superior to musholanya wudunya enlarged and place split between men and women", she pointed to someone dressed in white who supposedly cleaning service as an employee of the tourist attractions.
The visitor turned out to people as well. Gakpapalah, which the mother has shed important uneg-unegnya. Fortunately people who allegedly terrorized the employee was not angry like that.
Kampung Gajah is a new name in the tourist map in Bandung. Not until a year, the reverberations have been spread everywhere so it fits on 1 January, visitors tumplek here. There was no space left to just move freely. Parking along the hill has been filled. It was around 12:00, we had to wait over half an hour to find a parking place after admission with tickets costing 5,000 per person and 10,000 per car.
Less clear how the origin of the name of Kampung Gajah. According to the owner, Jeffry Kurniawan, the name was inadvertently sticking because of the many statues of elephants adorn the gate. Synonymous with the big elephant, so sesuailah with the location of this tour which covers about 85 hectares and will be further developed to 220 acres. Wow, imagine the extent of it.
We left home around 11 o'clock and arrived about 12 o'clock that passes through the middle lane Cihanjuang, Cimahi thus not exposed to traffic. In fact, if passed Setiabudi, breakdown has been started from before the terminal Plumbing. It was only before arriving at the entrance, looking a little queue. Vehicles entering and leaving the road turns to meet the narrow hillside streets Bajuri Sgt. When New Year's Eve, said congestion lasted until 04 o'clock in the morning.
Vehicle
The wahanayang here is quite unique. There are ATV that can run on any terrain. There was a horseback riding along the cliff. There is a battery-powered bumper boats. There is a Segway, future vehicles without pollution. Flying fox or sky rider as far as 400 meters. And there are many other games, both existing and under construction (under construction). If the count is calculated, if we try all the games, the fall will be more expensive than Dufan.
With the contour of hilly, we must be ready to go up and down the stairs to get to a vehicle. Even from the side of a particular vehicle is still bare soil, not paving blocks or coated cemented. There also appears excavator sits. When a new visitor apparently deserted hill land excavator operations.
Seasonal Businesses or Abadi?
Character of tourism business in Bandung is seasonal. After 3 years, there must be innovation. If not then it will usually shunned by travelers. For example, All About Strawberry now has begun to slow, even threatened was closed. According to the employees when we went there two months ago, all the equipment has been transferred to Know Lembang. Whereas a few years ago, this place was once a favorite for travelers, including Jakarta. Not far away there Katumiri.
General Facilities
Worship facilities are minimal compared to the number of visitors. Perhaps less anticipated by the manager. Mosque is very small, only fit about 10 people. Place wudu also mixed between men and women. Not to mention, stagnant water and mixed with a bit of dust that settles that the road to the mosque from where ablution little dirty.
Toilet facilities are also perceived less. Less water flow. Even in the men's toilet, the water in the urinal just came out a bit, if not blocked altogether. Some patches of dirt also decorate the urinal. Apparently there has been no special staff who regularly clean the toilets. In this case the manager Kampung Gajah should mimic the common facilities in shopping malls. Each of the officers guarded mosque. Tidap toilets are also maintained a regular cleaning service to clean the toilets in a certain period (eg 15 minutes, as needed).
Facilities landfills are very minimal and in a small form. No trash cans large size as in Dufan or Ancol. Anticipating a national holiday, it should be a big garbage can be placed in many strategic places.
Kampung Gajah tours offered cursory using Blue Ocean Strategy. Culinary travel tours combined with children's games and shopping. Even later on there will be waterboom and convention hall which can accommodate 1000 invitation. You could say all that's needed later on travelers here. Imagine how it would breakdown later if all the facilities completed all.
Officials in Kampung Gajah apparently not equipped with the uniform as far as I observe. If there is a uniform, the uniform seems they are less eye-catching, so visitors are working hard to distinguish where the visitors.
The wind is quite strong in Kampung Gajah, Meksi sometimes unable to fend off the sun. The movement from one vehicle to another vehicle are properly shaded by the roof so that visitors not to heat or rain.
The rest, Kampung Gajah is worth a visit. Results of creativity and innovation coupled with the courage to invest in generating an alternative tourist spot that can be favored by consumers. Now the fruits of creativity and hard work that is being harvested.
For the prospective visitor, if you want satisfied, go on a weekday instead of vacation, so we do not have to jostle. Btw, if you are satisfied with this information and interest to visit Kampung Gajah, do not forget to call this blog in front of the entrance. Dapet discount then? Yes is not influence. Quote me who. He he .... Udah long time not blogging. Stuttering also euy ....
