BISNISTIME.COM, BOGOR – Tuesday October 30, 2025 The heart of Bogor is about to pulsate with a captivating blend of art and tradition. THE 1O1 Bogor Suryakancana is proud to announce its vibrant involvement in the annual "Sastra & Wastra" Festival 2025, marking a pivotal moment in its commitment to authentic guest experiences and cultural preservation.

Standing gracefully on the legendary culinary street of Jalan Suryakancana, this 4-star hotel, recognized for its elegant Art Deco architecture and modern comfort, is transforming into a living gallery and performance venue. The festival's theme, "Sastra & Wastra"—Literature and Traditional Fabric—is a profound celebration of Indonesia's national heritage.

The core idea is simple yet powerful: Wastra (traditional textiles) is more than just cloth; it is a storied legacy woven with meaning. Sastra (literature/narrative) is the voice that captures the human soul's expression and journey. By merging these two elements, THE 1O1 Bogor Suryakancana curates a uniquely immersive cultural experience for all who visit.

The Festival's Triad of Cultural Immersion:

1. Visual Majesty (Wastra): Guests will be enveloped by stunning exhibitions of Nusantara traditional fabrics and beautiful contemporary textile installations, showcasing the enduring beauty of heritage in a modern setting.
2. Narrative Journey (Sastra): The hotel's stylish spaces will host local writers for poetry readings, cultural story discussions, and engaging storytelling workshops, inviting participants to uncover the hidden tales within the fabrics.
3. Harmonious Mood (Rhythm): A warm ambiance is set through acoustic music concerts and collaborative performances by local musicians, skillfully blending traditional musical elements with contemporary sounds to create an enchanting cultural soundtrack.

THE 1O1 Bogor Suryakancana aims for deep engagement. Every program is designed to move beyond passive viewing, encouraging guests and the local community to actively participate and forge an authentic connection with the culture. This initiative firmly positions the hotel as a destination that offers not only a stylish, comfortable stay but also a meaningful journey into Indonesian arts and heritage, appealing directly to the modern traveler seeking depth and authenticity.

Through this festival, the hotel is also driving strategic targets: boosting its brand presence in the lifestyle market, enhancing community engagement, collaborating with local SMEs and artists, and generating incremental revenue through special stay packages, culturally-inspired culinary menus, and exclusive merchandise.
