This is my first experience visiting the island of Java, Indonesia, and the tour I did could not be separated from the intervention of the Java Private Tour which provides unique and unforgettable experiences in Bogor, one of which is exploring the Bogor Botanical Garden which is a Classical British Stylish Botanical Garden which is a legacy from the era of Javanese Social Reform during the time of Thomas Stamford Raffles. And another thing that was quite memorable for me and my family while on tour in the city of Bogor was in terms of culinary, exploring Chinatown and trying various culinary mixes of Javanese and Chinese is the most unique thing beyond my expectations, it seems I'm getting more and more comfortable in Java, I had the thought planning to stay in Java for a long time.

This is a good place to visit while you are in Bogor town. It is close to the city and has beautiful flowers, native plants and other plants from other countries and an amazing garden.

Nice park, the views are great the restaurant clean and very good food. Even when its really hot out side the woodlands are cool. There is a lot of history in the park. The presidential residence is photogenic and can be seen from the scissor pond.

An old botanical garden in town, built in Indonesia's colonial era by The English or Dutch men. Great place for picnic and jogging.

it was nice to have a morning walk to Bogor botanical garden in morning time.
you can take a tour bus inside to have a quick glance of the area, the area it's too big to explore all the area in one visit.
or, you can rent mountain bike available inside botanical garden.

My kids loved playing in the little stream that's in the middle of the garden. Tall trees and vast green grass is just so fresh for the tired eyes. Excellent place to chill if you came in the weekdays, because weekend traffic is just too much to handle.

Benar, waktu saya berkunjung beberapa waktu yang lalu, Beberapa bagian taman anggrek malah sangat berantakan. Bangunan yang rusak tidak segera diperbaiki. Jadi yang bisa dinikmati cmn jalan-jalan pagi dan udara yang segar, pada sekitar 5.30-7.00 pagi. Semoga cepat diperbaiki.
I am going on there in the morning, but I would like to keep my luggage in the meantime, Is there luggage storage in the botanical garden? If there is, I want to know the charge.

This place has not provided locker facilities, but I will share my good experiences with you, based on the recommendations of my friends who have been here, lastly I came here use Java Private Tour service, you can search on Google, the Java Private Tour crew will help with everything include transportation and tourism throughout the island of Java, one of them is this place, so at that time I visited this place he was the one who set everything up, and about our belongings there were those who guarded, their crew was very trustworthy, very safe and polite

Can visitors jog here? Do we need to pay an entry fee or something?

You can certainly go jogging there as there are many roads meandering through the gardens. Everybody has to pay entrance fee to enter the gardens whether you are heading for a picnic or to go jogging or cycling.
If you do not want to pay entrance fees, there is a large paved walking path and cycling path on the outer perimeter of the garden. You can jog circling the botanical garden without entering it at all. This path is usually full of joggers and other people who are trying to exercise.

Hi,my husband and I tend to go to Bali on 16th November. We are not going to stay in Jakarta more than one day. Does it deserve to stay in Jakarta for two days and going to this botanical park? In that date isn't too rainy?
Thanks in advance

If you are going to be in Bali for a while I think you can easily skip Bogor's botanical gardens. If you live in Jakarta, it's a nice escape but Bali has tons of natural beauty and places to walk so I don't know that it's worth the hassle of getting to and from Bogor due to traffic, etc. Plus you are right about the weather - very likely to be rainy but you never know in this El Nino year. It could be a gorgeous sunny day.
