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").
Braga Street begins on a T-junction with Asia-Afrika Street (formerly De Groote Postweg), running north until the city council (balaikota).
