Bamboo Forest Keputih Surabaya

We visited here today with our children expecting different. This is sadly not very nice to visit or play, please save your time and experience something else in Surabaya. The playground is broken, there’s a lot of dirt and not very well maintained garden, plants or bamboo. Side street vendor for a cafe, there is a walking path/road around the place which is very broken. Unfortunate to see such a place so run down which has so much potential. We were however happy to get outdoors and at least walk around in some fresh air.

Cleanliness (3/5) Seats availability (3/5) Area size (4/5) Plants varieties (3/5) Plants freshness (3/5) Ambience (1/5) Children-friendliness area (5/5) Geographical location (2/5) Location signs clarity (1/5) Wheelchair accessibility (3/5) Parking space availability (5/5) - ironically when I brought my siblings from Hong Kong, the leaves were not green. Most of them fell, and the rest seem to be brown because of dry. Aesthetically not pleasing. - at least the greeneries at the park are maintained well - when I was there, I also witnessed many garbage left on the ground. Please (1) our govt maintain the cleanliness, and (2) visitors be discipline to be aware of cleanliness, by not leaving the trashes on the ground.

Not quite as epic as we had expected - but a nice place to walk around and feel like you've got out of the city for a while

A large park with lots of plants, and the air is so fresh. I should have been there at the crack of dawn, as if could see fairies.🧚‍♀️ There’s no entrance fee at all.

Looks really nice on the pictures and it looks nice in reality too but not really that amazing. It's a nice break from the city life though. Let's get it straight, it's bamboo growing next to the road and that's about it. It can be difficult finding a real parking lot, I was riding a bike and I found two guys providing guarding of the bikes at the beginning of the forest so if you're riding a bike you will at least find somewhere to park. Get prepared to bring mosquito repellent as you otherwise will be eaten alive. Forest, shadow and a small stream close by makes the place ideal for mosquitoes to thrive. Trash. Unfortunately once again Indonesia doesn't surprise with the huge amount of trash laying around everywhere. It can even be difficult to take a picture without clearing the photo area from trash. Without the trash the place would be a lot better as for many other places around in Indonesia.
