Photographs from Bogor City, Indonesia

I am sharing a set of photos taken during my 6-day stay in Bogor City, Indonesia during the 7th ASEAN Heritage Park (AHP) Conference. This city situated 2 hours from Jakarta is blessed with a lot of natural landscape. 

The Novotel Bogor Golf Resort was my home for 6 days, definitely an excellent hotel within Bogor that offers wonderful recreation facilities and a unique waterscape in its facade. From a pampering experience in Novotel we travelled to Mt. Gede, an AHP-declared area which is considered as a natural tourist attraction. This nature park offers beautiful canopy of rainforest with amenities such as campsite, established trails, culture-inspired function hall and attractive suspension bridges.

Here are some of the photos. Enjoy. 


My participation to the 7th AHP Conference was made possible through a nomination from DENR XI Regional Executive Director Bagani Fidel Evasco, which was also based on the humble conservation works I have undertaken both officially and personally for my most beloved mountain in the country. I was with the Mt. Apo Protected Area Superintendent Forester Archelito Mallari together with the rest of Philippine delegation from different AHPs. 

At the outset I would like to thank Mayor Jose Nelson Z. Sala, Sr. for allowing me to join the conference, as well as to our Municipal Administrator Atty. Michelle O. Orpilla.
