Jonggol is a district (Indonesian: Kecamatan) in the Bogor Regency, West Java, Indonesia. It is located 50 km to the southeast of Jakarta and is part of the Greater Jakarta metropolitan area. The average elevation is 295 meters, maximum 732 m (1.890 m in Mounth Baud, Sukamakmur, Jonggol District), and minimum 150 meters above sea level. Under Dutch administration, Jonggol was the centre of a wider administrative area (Kawedanan Jonggol), and after the proclamation of Independence it was stated that the kawedanan would be re-established as part of the proposed State of Pasundan. This was not done, but Jonggol was one of the areas more recently considered for new central administration (capital) of the Republic of Indonesia.[1]
