12 days ago

Hello how are you hiver hope you are always happy. Thank you Wednesdaywalk Community by @tattoodjay. On this occasion I walked in Maluku Park, one of the oldest parks in the city of Bandung and the Maluku Park was built in 1919, by the Dutch East Indies government.

Maluku Park, formerly know as Molukken Park there are many parks in the city of Bandung. The place is spread around the city of Bandung. Maluku Park at that time became a favorite of the Dutch people who lives in Indonesia.

Located between Aceh street, Sulawesi street, Ambon street and Saparua street. Maluku Park is open twenty four hours, I tried to enter Maluku Park and walk around the park equipped with a pond and small river foot path. Park benches, plus lush trees, making the atmosphere in the park and its surroundings feel cool and comfortable.

The path in the park used paving blocks and facilities for disabled people's path, the path used paving blocks as rainwater absorbers. The types of trees in the Maluku Park that are the mainstay species are such as, kiacret trees, buni trees, Bintaro trees.

In the Maluku Park there are about fifty types of plants and about six hundred of then contain perennials as shade trees. Facilities in maluku Park such as children's Playground in the form of swings, jogging track facilities.

Visitor can enjoy the cool air and can also exercise by walking in the park area, the manager provides seating facilities for chatting and just relaxing while enjoying coffee. There are also toilet facilities and parking.

The geographical location of Maluku Park is a basin, in the middle of the park there is a small river, that river can reduce water runoff in the surounding environment during the rainy season. Maluku is a green open space, with many trees and plant as water absorbers.
