" Salah satu tempat paling favorite saya di Bukittinggi. Walau ramai tapi suasananya sangat menyenangkan. Best time menikmati jam gadang adalah saat malam hari dimana jam gadang akan berubah ubah warna lampu dan terlihat lebih indah. Udara yang sejuk menambah nikmatnya menikmati Jam Gadang di malam hari. Ada hal yg paling saya suka ketika berada disini malam hari, saya bisa melihat awan putih embun yg terbawa angin dan ada 1 keluarga pengamen yg memainkan alat musik dengan nyanyian khas minang.
27 May 2018Oiyaa, Jam Gadang ini berada tepat di pusat kota, dan pasar. Banyak penjual cinderamata dan kalo siang bisa masuk ke pasar atas untuk mencicipi nasi kapau khas Bukittinggi. Jangan lupa liat satu hal yg unik dari Jam Gadang ini, angka romawi IV ditulis dengan IIII. "

" Anywhere place in Indonesia, government always failed to put a special site as Special place as like they are. Government mostly do not appreciate the destinations site as a important matter. Various Food sales, kid toys sales such balloon, local traditional toys, many souvenir they free walking around and it's completely make me uncomfort. When I take a picture I can't take the view as clear as I want. So? I'm speechless.I'm so hopeless the government can think this matter, and fix it up as professional manner "

" First timer here in another city icon! A bunch of crowds with tourists and local people taking afternoon stroll with various local food sellers. I remembered I tried a local snack called Kerupuk Siram / Kerupuk Leak if I'm not mistaken. It's a cracker made from cassava, served with Padang's curry sauce and rice noodle. Sooo tasty!!!! It can be found around the area and only costs 4k idr! "

" A nice historical monument, has small souvenir shops around it, horse chariots parked around it and you could ride it anytime you want as long as you pay for it. This place is pretty protected, I saw like rangers or polices or securities I guess? Many people go there. I would recommend you to walk, because the parking for vehicles are difficult "

" Most famous landmark in Bukittinggi, there is a square, a park and a market in surrounding, a spot for picnic, shopping and take pictures. It says that the building was built using egg white. Some says that people can go up the tower, but the gate was locked during my visit. "

" Cool! Not so far from there, there is little warung (deep inside of gang) that sold Pisang Panggang, but its not banana that grilled. It's banana with santan and some biscuit. Uh, the banana is so soft and sweet and the santan is so gurih (?) and the soften biscuit and it became more delicious! "

" The Jam Gadang tower is the icon for Bukit Tinggi. It is the center of the attention. People are simply welcome to strolling around the area and enjoying the panoramic views. There is a big traditional market near by and lots of places to eat. At daily time this area is full with tourists, street-sellers and street-performers, not to mention on the weekends. "

" Selalu menjadi tempat favorit saya untuk jalan-jalan keluarga. Apalagi sejak taman sudah dirapikan, bisa ajak anak2 yang baru bisa jalan buat latihan. Sayangnya ciri khas jam gadang sudah berkurang. Pedagang "Karupuak Kuah" sangat susah ditemui karena diawasi Satpol PP. Padahal ini menjadi salah satu ciri khas di Jam Gadang. Saran saya, jikalau memang adanya pedagang asongan ini mengganggu keindahan, lebih baik Pemko Bukittinggi menyediakan corner khusus bagi mereka yang ingin berjualan bisa pakai izin dan sewa yang murah. Agar mereka bisa mencari nafkah dengan nyaman, dan keinginan wisata kuliner jajanan unik pengunjung juga terpuaskan.
07 September 2017By the way, setiap malam minggu dinas Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan (benar ya nama dinasnya?) Mengadakan acara kesenian di pelatarannya. Saya ingin sekali nonton tapi masih belum kesampean. Terakhir saya ingin liat randai dll, ternyata sedang ada acara beatbox battle. Dan saya kecewa. 😅
Semoga ada sosmed yang bisa diakses agar tahu acara apa yang akan diadakan setiap minggunya.
Kepanjangan, tapi semoga bisa sebagai masukan bagi Pemko Bukittinggi untuk berbenah menjadikan pariwisata Bukittinggi yang lebih baik. "

" Surrounded with beautiful scenery. Mount Merapi and Mount Singgalang are clearly visible from here. The air is also cold and refreshing.
05 June 2017However, during peak hours, the number of people who gathered led to thousands in quantity. For an area that can accommodate hundreds of people, it just makes us become uncomfortable. "
