Discover Subang

When planning your trip, it is important to distinguish between the city of Subang and the broader destination of Subang Regency. The city is home to a museum, a landmark and sports venues; in the wider area, you will find landscapes with craters, waterfalls, tea and rice fields, as well as cultural destinations. First decide whether your stay will focus mainly on the city or on places in the regency.

The city of Subang: museum, landmark and sports venues

The Subang Regency Museum is the only museum in the city of Subang. Across the broader Subang destination, the museum is used for study visits. Museum guides provide detailed information about historical objects. A theater hall is used to share the culture and history of Subang Regency; there is also a 3D collection. The museum, guided tours and theater hall each focus on different aspects of historical objects and the history of the area.

Menara Merah Putih is one of the city of Subang’s landmarks. It is a place to take selfies and offers views of the city from above. This landmark therefore brings together two aspects: the view and the chance to use the tower as a backdrop for a keepsake photo.

Lapang Bintang is in central Subang, in Kelurahan Pasirkareumbi. Its colorful jogging track resembles a rainbow; the site is also used for gymnastics and other sports activities. Kolam Renang Ciheuleut swimming pool is another sports venue in the city and is often used for extracurricular school activities. These examples show different sides of the city’s offerings, from a striking structure to places for exercise.
