Bandung Geographic Museum, a green field, rice green growth is pleasant, you can see that the land here is fertile, but from the uneven situation of rice leaves, the farming technology here lacks scientific management; Looking up, the green mountains are continuous, the streams are flowing, the houses are hidden in the green trees, and the smoke is small, forming a beautiful natural landscape, which makes you refreshed and feel the comfort brought by the journey. Nearly four hours' drive, we came to Bandung. Bandung used to call "Brian", meaning "the kingdom of immortals", and now the name means "mountain-lianshan". It is the third largest city in the capital of West Java, Indonesia (after Jakarta and Surabaya), with a population of more than 1.2 million, located in the Bandung Basin, 715 meters above sea level, in the western Indonesian island of Java, surrounded by peaks, lush plants, beautiful environment, cool climate, fresh air, and temperatures similar to Bogor. Bandung is beautiful, quiet and elegant, and the seasons are like spring. It is known as the most beautiful city in Indonesia and is known as "Paris in Java".

The geological museum establishment was the initiative of Dienst van den Mijnbouw or the Mining Bureau in the Indian Dutch period. At that time, the government wanted to have one place to store the mine investigations made. April 23, 1927, the construction of the museum building was started by Ir Menalda van Schouwenburg.

Geology Museum (Bung Tau Géology Museum) was established on May 16, 1929. The museum was renovated with a assistance fund of JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency). After renovation, the Geology Museum reopened and officially opened by Vice President RI, Megawati Soekarnoputri on August 23, 2000. As a historic monument, the museum is under government protection and is a national relic. In this museum, it is stored and managed a lot of geological materials, such as fossils, rocks and minerals. All the materials were collected during the field work in Indonesia since 1850.
