Biggest Sundial


This is the biggest sundial that I have ever seen. Placed at Kotabaru Parahyangan, Padalarang, west side of Bandung. It's unique shape and position direct the sunlight shadow into the particular date and month-marked position on it's surrounding floor. Resulting a sunlight calendar at the bright sunny day. It is also a museum of science placed inside the building. I'm not sure about it's accuracy but I rather like the shape and the color. Too bad my lens aren't wide enough to capture all the scene, it should be a 4 stack of colored trees and flowers surround this building that I can't show you.

Is Bandung part of Indonesia?. Been to Indonesia but only in Batam.

That's right Bill, it was the biggest and collorfull one, :)

100% correct asm my dear, Bandung is part of Indonesia. Ever heard of West Java? right, Bandung is the capitol of it. Ever been to Batam it mean you are one step closer to Bandung. Give her a try next time, :)

Oh my, had I known that i was one step closer to Bandung, should have gone there. But anyway, looking alone at your photos made me step into the place. Thanks to you Den.
