TEGALEGA
Hi guys, now i wanna tell you about one of thousands sopt in Bandung. that is Tegalega. Tegalega is a park which located in south
of Bandung.Full address of Tegalega is on Jl. M. Toha, Bandung-Astana Anyar Bandung. Tegalega
has a meaning. Its from Tegal and Lega. They’re Tegal is a park and Lega is Large. Which means a large park. Beside as a park, Tegalega
are used for many activities. There are for jogging track, an event,
selfie-ing, selling, and many more. The area of the place is about 15 hectare. How
large is it.

(Mini Forest)
And at the center of the
park there is Bandung Lautan Api Monument.
Bandung Lautan Api was the
deliberate burning of much of the southern side of the city of Bandung by
retreating Indonesian Republicans during the Indonesian
National Revolution. An ultimatum was given by the British commander in Bandung for the Indonesian combatants in Bandung to leave the city. In response, the
southern part of Bandung was deliberately burned down in an act of defiance as
they left on March 24, 1946; an event which came to be known as Bandung Lautan Api (or Bandung Sea of Fire).The
revolutionary song "Halo-halo Bandung" was sung by hundreds of
Indonesian nationalists in Bandung.(source from : wikipedia.com).
(its a flower park)
So, Tegalega
is a place that showed a very important tragedy of Bandung. Ok next, back to
topic. As
time passes, a long ago, this place is used for horse racing but now, its for many activities. And now, i think
Tegalega is more dirty than before.Many garbage stwern. And many people littering.
Is not comfort anymore..... and all vagrant maybe work here too. Many Seller sell
their goods here. Kind of goods there are culinary food, furniture, cloth,etc. And
sometimes theyre open traditional market or in Indonesia called Pasar Kaget. But thats okay. As long as
people like us participate for keep Tegalega clean. One thing that i love from this place is a flower park. Flowers and plants here, make Tegalega more beautiful.
