walking here they have lots of photographers everywhere uh maybe I should get my picture taken I'll see I'll see but um the street is very iconic because it's like um every country in Asia or Africa has like their own uh Little Rock here I'll show you in a minute let's first uh cross the road okay okay hey dud oh I'm already on a picture hey hi everybody's taking pictures here oh I'm sorry I'm met English oh no English okay okay nice meeting you yeah I see so many photographers here I remember when I was in KL at um The ponos Towers it was also like that but here they have like a proper camera it's not with the phone they have proper camera and you can see like people with a tripod there here somebody taking pictures everywhere there photographers and they have like um they have like an official jacket that says uh Street photographer Asia Africa something I've never seen I think there are officially uh photographers here in band or something but yeah we'll see maybe I'll get one I see here as well ruining their picture sorry oh I was ruining the picture okay and we have the grand musk in the background and the Alon aloon Square as well I'm going there right now actually seems like a cosplay come on come here oh no it's okay thank you I think there's like a cosplay event going on or something you can see here it's cosplay cosplay okay you're doing cosplay okay that's right cosplay okay nice nice good good I think they're doing cosplay look you can see there lots of people here as well it's for or for Halloween or something I don't know what is this um no idea no idea yeah and this is what I'm talking about so every African and Asian country has their own uh Rock here this is the one for Palestine but you have one you have so many and on the other side as well you can see so many rocks so yeah it's nice every country has their own rock here uh that represents uh the country and it's a very very busy day today it's a Saturday so you can imagine bandong it's a little bit colder than Jakarta so a lot of people come here for the weekend so yeah it's super busy probably here mostly in the weekend and you can see it especially on this Lane and on the bras street it's the most popular place here in B look another guy for Halloween or something I don't know what's going on hello M hello hello I wonder what's going on yeah so we have made it to Alon Alon bandong uh it's uh pretty much the main Square here in bandong and uh it's right next to the Grand Mosque you can hear the prayers now uh maybe I will try to make my way in I'm not sure if I will be allowed in but it would be nice to go in because it's a really really huge mosque um apparently a lot of people from West Java come here even to this mosque so it's not only people from band but from the whole West Java so uh but first I need to make my way across which will be uh pretty tricky let's see let's see if I can go for for it I'll I'll just go for it I'll just go for it yeah that's how you do you just put your hand up thank you just put your hand up okay I made it yeah you can see lots of people are hanging out here this is really like the hangout spot okay we made it to the Grand Mosque at least outside I would like to go in but I'm really not sure if it will be possible let's see if I can uh find someone hi hello sir do you speak English uh a little bit little bit do you know if it's possible to co inside oh no not possible not possible May one going to get you and inside this what tomorrow tomorrow today today canot canot canot okay thank [Music] you just a little bit all right I will ask someone else because I feel like it should be possible to go in but the prayers are going on so maybe that's the reason that it's not possible this is here the aloon aloon square wow last time I was here it was almost empty now it's really full full full of people look at this it's like a big big square with a synthetic grass nice B sign there in the background and then there's a Jun I'm not sure what that means this is the machet here but I'm really not sure if I will be able to go inside just need to find uh somebody important here somebody important that can allow me in I need to ask but I guess it's not possible hello sir is it possible to go inside can I go inside is possible yeah is it possible to go in the tower not possible not possible okay so I just take my shoes off shoes off shoes off yeah okay okay okay yeah I'll take my shoes off and I I can go inside apparently it's okay with short okay with short I think he's trying to find someone that speaks English yeah it would be really cool to go in the tower but I don't think uh that's allowed that's like really really exclusive access so I don't think so imagine being up there that must be really nice beautiful views and everything let's see possible yeah okay I'll take my shoes off okay I cover yeah pleas oh okay okay I will cover yeah I need to cover my legs no idea how this works hello how
