Jalan Ciumbuleuit also connects to Lembang but the fastest way is through the road that goes to Sethiabudi, this road has more traffic but is more easily accessible than the others. Lembang itself is a scruffy, busy place with a lot of traffic, street vendors and markets. Corn, rambutan (hairy fruits), strawberries, orchids and bonsai trees can be found everywhere. On Sundays Lembang is usually packed with families conducting Indonesia 's single most favourite weekend activities: tasting snacks and local specialties.
Other favourites include sate kelinci (rabbit satay) and susu murni (fresh cowmilk). Cow milk is sold at various places, the biggest being Kencana Lembang, where you can drink milk or yoghurt in old converted cow stables and also see the process of milking the cows.
Several botanical gardens sell plants ranging from tiny bonsai trees to 2 meter high palm trees.
Near Lembang there are some forests and waterfalls that can be visited. Staying over in Lembang is apparently quite popular and the town is sprawling with hotels of every category. Among the most well known are Grand Hotel Lembang and Putri Gunung. It makes for a nice daytrip though, and if you enjoy snacking and stunning views it's a place most conveniently located.
