Lembang Fault
The Lembang Fault is an active geological fault with a slip rate of 2 millimeters per year that crosses Lembang city and runs 22 kilometers north of the Bandung basin, ranging from Mount Palasari to Cisarua. 700 years ago, earthquakes occurred at several points along the fault line and could potentially trigger up to a magnitude-7 quake. This potential quake could impact 8 million people who are currently living in the Bandung basin area and its surrounding area.
