Braga Street (Indonesian: Jalan Braga, Sundanese: ᮏᮜᮔ᮪ ᮘᮢᮌ) is a street in the center of Bandung, Indonesia, famous in 1920s colonial Indonesia as a promenade street. A European ambiance of chic cafes, boutiques, and restaurants along the street propelled Bandung to attain the Dutch nickname Parijs van Java ("Paris of Java").
