The Place that I want to visited in Indonesia: First Episode

There are a lot of place in Indonesia that I want to visited, because this our beloved country had many beautiful place and spot that have been famous in around the world. For example: First, there’s a Raja Ampat regency in West Jaya New Guinea, that place is has been famous around the world by the beauty of the caves and nature rocks in there. Second, there’s a Bali island. Who don’t know about this famous island in Indonesia? Even mostly the people thought that Indonesia is just Bali, but I want to clear it that it’s wrong! The waves in Bali known as the most biggest waves in the world, it’s a heaven for a surfing-lover. The point is, Indonesia has many beautiful island, it’s not just Bali actually. Do you think that Indonesia is being called “A thousand of Island” for nothing? Go ahead, experience by yourself. Be my guess, please.

Back to the main topic, “The Place that I want to visited in Indonesia”. But I want to tell you this though, it is defined and based on what am I hearing about these place. Every each of it I regard as a target that I have to achieve in my life. The first place that I want to visit is, Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam. Why do I put this province that in 1956 called “The Special Territory of Aceh” then it changed in 2001 into a “Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam” in the first place? For, Indonesian people this place has been called “Serambi Mecca” or in the other word is a direction for us (Indonesian people) from here (Indonesia) to Mecca, or in the other mean it’s a “kiblat” from Indonesia for Indonesian people. It is proved when there’s a tsunami in Desember 2006, and then the great mosque of Baiturrohman in there are not broken even the single damage while the other building around that mosque it’s broken by the tsunami. It is obvious that Allah want to protect that holy mosque, cause a mosque is house of Allah. I didn’t believe it in the first place, but when I see the photo in the internet, it is really unbroken. Ya Allah, that’s an example of The Greatness of Allah SWT. Allahuakbar! So, I always willing to visit there and watch it with my own eyes. But not just only because of it that makes me want to visit this most difficult area language that must learned by the Dutch colonial, it’s also the food that has many rich ingredients till makes that food delicious, the culture that very rich and Islamic which interested for me, and so on. Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam, I love you.

 And then the second place that I want to visit is, The Special Territory of Yogyakarta. Why do I put this province that fulfill with the people that some people said that “It’s the oldest people in Indonesia” which is Javanese people in the second place? The first thing that I like about Yogyakarta is their food called “Gudeg”, I think it’s the most delicious food in Indonesia after “Rendang” from Padang, West Sumatera. Gudeg is made from a part of jackfruit, but I don’t which part is cause I can’t make a Gudeg, I just like to eat it. The point is that food is really delicious man, trust me. And another thing that I like about Javanese people is they have defend their culture and art through the generation to generation, and they lead by the person who being respect by all Javanese people named “Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono” , he’s been lead Javanese people for a long time. But, I heard that some Javanese people is a pretentious snob and arrogant because they still effected some kind a caste in society that different a people who is a royal family or not. That’s one thing that I don’t like from the Javanese people. And there’s one thing that Yogyakarta have that from any other place in Indonesia doesn’t have, it’s Prambanan Temple which is one of the finest temple in Indonesia. And my mom ever told me that when I was 3-years-old, me and my parents have been to some beach in Yogyakarta, she told me that I was really enjoy playing in the sand like building a sandcastles or any other kid would do in the sand. As much I really enjoying it, until I even don’t want to go home yet, but you know it’s time for me and my parents to go home and I was crying while I leaving Yogyakarta at that time. I never go to Yogyakarta ever since, so the reason that I want to visit there again is I want to make a new memories about this time that I will cherish it in the future like I cherish the memory of mine in the past. See you later, Yogyakarta.
