Pangandaran and Pangandaran Hotelswww.itravelindonesia.com
Pangandaran is an often by passed beach resort situated on the southern coast of Java. Pangandaran offers a wide swath of fine grey sand, easy surfing, fresh seafood, and delightful visits to the Green Canyon, waterfalls, and sunsets.

Pangandaran is 4 hours from Bandung and well serviced by Budiman Bus Co. from Bandung. A car rental from Bandung is easily arranged and will allow you to visit the surrounding area more conveniently. Susi Air flies from both Jakarta and Bandung, although, this would mean missing out on the beautiful Javan scenery on the way there by land. A small number of visitors to Pangandaran take the train to Banjar City and then a bus to Pangandaran.

Pangandaran fills up with Jakarta weekenders but weekday visits allow you to enjoy seclusion and the freshest grilled seafood west of Jimbaran Bali. Hotel prices, especially on a weekend, can double due to almost 100 percent occupancy rates.

Sitting on a peninsular, the West beach is the swimming beach with clean waters, surf, and hotels to suit all budgets. The Southern end contains a National Park that has interesting walks through a forested area.

The highlight of any trip to Pangandaran is the Green Canyon, 32 km East of Pangandaran. A gentle boat ride through emerald green waters takes you to a magnificent grotto. Ask to go swimming. You will need to pay a little extra but it is well worth the effort. You will don a life vest, and pull yourself against strong currents. The guides will set up some ropes to help you along. There are sheer cliffs on both sides and the stalagtites and stalactites make for an unforgettable experience. The young and foolish sometimes scale a 4m high rock. You plunge straight into the white waters below. An adrenaline rush to be sure.

Batu Hiu is the shark rock. There is little to see of the rock, but the cliffs on the promontory are a stunning background for any photo. The views of sweeping surf all the way to the Southern end are spectacular. The Park is well tended with gigantic Pandanus trees the tree of choice.

It is easy to eat well. Seafood in Pangandaran is fresh, cheap and well prepared. The local specialty is of course grilled anything.

The local Art Market is in town and women making traditional sugar cakes, salted fish, and handicrafts made from sand, are popular gifts. Pangandaran is especially recommended if you will not be making it as far as Bali.

The Year of the Rabbit. The Chinese New Year begins on Feb 4 this year

The Year of the Rabbit conjures images of fluffy bunnies, but fortunetellers in Asia predict that the coming year on the Asian lunar calendar will be anything but cuddly.



Among key predictions for the new year beginning Feb. 3: terrorist threats, continuing tensions between China and the United States, natural disasters around the world and wobbly global markets.

Even Hollywood celebrity couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie is not immune from the grim predictions. Both were born in Rabbit years, and one fortuneteller sees their longtime relationship coming under increasing strain as the year wears on.

As the Lunar New Year approaches, Asians from Hanoi to Harbin put great stock in the soothsayers' predictions using feng shui - the traditional practice of foretelling events through dates and classical texts.

In feng shui lore, the Year of the Rabbit is associated with the natural elements of metal and wood. This is a likely recipe for conflict, according to Hong Kong-based feng shui consultant Raymond Lo.

Taipei-based colleague Tsai Shang-chi goes even further.

This year the West will suffer from a vicious energy and will be prone to more terrorist attacks," Tsai said. "The East will also be affected by a negative energy, reflected in ongoing tensions on the Korean peninsula."

While Tsai and Malaysian prognosticator Rev Yong offer assurances that the problems between North and South Korea won't escalate into all-out war, Yong is less sanguine about the chances for avoiding an onslaught of natural disasters. He foresees severe flooding around the world, a powerful earthquake in Japan and the emergence of a number of worrisome new diseases.

One of the upshots, he says, will be big problems for the global economy and the possibility of a major stock market plunge toward the middle of the year.

"People think the rabbit is very gentle, but it's not going to be a mild year at all," Yong said. "It won't be a good year. There will be a lot of world conflicts."

We are proud to bring you the Inaugural issue of itravelindonesia. The young team felt that it was time to go beyond just booking your discounted hotels and Indonesian domestic flights. So here we are.

In this Animal issue, we take a close look at my favourite destination in Indonesia, the Seminyak district in Bali. For our funky jilbabbers, Islamic fashion makes waves in London’s fashion week.

For the hordes of Indonesians flying to Singapore to shop and visit the doctors, we say there is more to Singapore than just Takashimaya and Mount Elizabeth.

Indonesians are the happiest people in the world. We look at a recent Norwegian survey that tells us that Indonesians smile more than anyone else on the Planet.

It is a modest start for us. In the next year, we will bring together articles that we hope will entertain, inform and bring you back. We hope that you will be a frequent visitor to itravelindonesia. As always, send us your feedback, kudos, and brickbats to cs@itravelindonesia.com.

Happy holidays.
