The island is always used as the main destination for visitors during a typical cruising Belitung island. To reach the small island of exotic, visitors prior to the Cape Coast Kelayang which became the starting point for island hoping.

By renting a motor boat belonging to local fishermen, we will be delivered to the island of Lengkuas. Prior to the island of Lengkuas, I was ushered into Sand Island, a sandbar that only appears on the surface of sea water at low tide.

The island of sand is interesting is the presence of red sea star magnitude that many are scattered around the island of sand. Following from Sand Island, we immediately headed actual destination, Lengkuas Island.

Amazing Forest in Bogor

Do not just to the Garden or culinary tours around Taman Kencana alone during the holidays to City of Rain (Bogor). There are many other beautiful destinations, one of which CIFOR Forest.

Instinct landscape photographers in particular fans surely hunt this moment. Foreign perhaps a tinge of light in the ear, but when using the term RoL (Ray of Light) will certainly understand the question. The sunlight that penetrates the barrier slits so as to form a "line" light / light. In the photo frame will appear natural beauty. Not a bit of both amateur and professional photographers crave immortalize this moment.

No spot in Bogor gandrungi photographers to pursue RoL. CIFOR Forest its name. Its location in the Pier area, Bogor district, not far from the terminal Bubulak. This spot is actually a research forest area of ​​approximately 60 acres owned by the Department of Forestry. However, because it is not far from the location of the office there Governmental Organization engaged in forestry often called forest "CIFOR", Centre for International Forestry.

This area is open to the public including both amateur and professional photographers. Entering this region does not need a license except CIFOR region or a limited area for research. Nor is no charge. Especially for specific activities, for example research, camping with dozens of participants, filming, for the sake of convenience and security need separate licenses.

Like the forest, an area filled with thousands condition of dense trees. For the purpose of this study is the result of thousands of tree planting in the era of the 1950s. Thousands of large and tall trees, lush foliage forming a sort of roof or canopy nature.

Visitors will feel cool and calm atmosphere. This cool conditions often invites local residents for recreation or travel activities or if mild. Moreover, there is a lake around 5 hectares. Good road access, easy transportation to public transportation routes Merdeka-Bubulak, be magnet outside the area residents to travel here. Attractive conditions are also invited to make the film producer as a filming location.

Fellow photographer did little sacrifice sleep time, come early, in pursuit moments morning sunlight that penetrates the cracks barrier ie dense foliage. Indeed, ideally around 6 to 8 am. After it was gone RoL her.

Willingness to get up early it was not yet enough. Still another need luck that weather. It is certain that if the morning overcast or rainy weather will not be able to RoL. Imagine how disappointed they were coming all the way from Jakarta, for example, when it was still dark so arrive at the location of the sky turns cloudy or even rainy. Forced to bite the fingers or come another time. But in the dry season around May to September is more likely to sunny weather. Ideal for hunting RoL.

The quality and quantity of the power of light lines come to the beauty of a photograph. Not infrequently the weather is sunny, but the light that penetrates cracks leafy trees look thin. It could also be the opposite, a tinge looks concentrated. Not all spots could produce the same tinge conditions as expected. Then foresight choose spot in this vast area into a challenge at the same preoccupation.

Fortunate in this region there is flexibility choose a place without having permission. Exceptions to the fenced area or a given barrier which means it should not be entered or require special permission

What if the condition is not ideal when it was coming from far away, must be whether dissolve in disappointment and immediately store the camera in a bag? Sense the photographer is usually not clogged. Recreational activities of people who, morning exercise, camping, can be an alternative to other image object.

Residents across the forest density, both just a walk or jog can be an interesting object. Sometimes crossed if carriage / wagon in the middle of a fairly presents the beauty of the forest. In some locations there are small stalls that provide beverages and a light breakfast. Can become a favorite place of photographers who are tired or even satisfied got RoL. Calculated recreational hunting as well.

A fortune to me that ever lived within a 10-minute drive motors of this location. Failed to get RoL can be repeated at a later date. I like the photo sharing did not I shoot at a time. It took some time to come here waiting for nice weather. Surely there is inexpressible satisfaction when successfully obtain the desired moment.

Beautiful Waterfall in Lumajang

Indonesia has various waterfalls are so beautiful, including Tumpak Sewu waterfall in Lumajang, East Java. The waterfall is like a giant curtain was also looks like a trickle of paradise because of its beauty.

If a traveler confused about where to vacation, try visiting the waterfall Tumpak Sewu via Gua Tetes. Waterfalls in the area Pronojiwo, Lumajang, East Java, could be an alternative place of your vacation.

Along the path that will be passed, there are many waterfalls that will spoil the eye. But not only the beauty offered, here you will find many ready to confront challenges.

Here there are about three entrances into the guard post Tumpak Sewu Waterfall. I entered through the guard post third from the direction of Malang-Lumajang or first guard post from the opposite direction. For admission charged only Rp 3,000, while for the parking of motor Rp 5,000.

From the entrance you are going down a fairly steep cliff. But do not worry because there are footrests to go down. You will be welcomed, with the accompaniment of the sound of thundering waterfalls and the chirping of birds that will accompany all the way to the Gua Tetes.

Natural scenery presented no less menajubkan. I recommend better use of the mountain sandals, because some stairs made of the rather slippery ground. sandals will also facilitate the trip down the river.

After walking a few meters, on the left already looks a waterfall. But for the access road to the waterfall is not yet opened to the public. A few minutes after climbing down, your eyes will widen witnessed one proof of the greatness of God the Cave drops.

A mix of forests, waterfalls, cliffs and stalactites and stalagmites are arranged so beautiful and majestic. Coupled with the flow of water gathered in small pools stalagmites and flow down towards the river Glidik.

Once satisfied to take pictures and enjoy the exoticism of the Cave Drops, I continued my journey. The challenges ahead are much heavier. I recommend bringing extra clothes, because the path to be traversed requires to be exposed to wet.

Cliff will descend fairly steep and dialaui water flow from the Cave drops. Only a rope made from used tires that will help down the cliff. Must be extra careful, patient and concentration.

Approximately after 10 m creeping down, I see the waterfall again. And that's the only way that can be passed into the Tumpak Sewu. Cross right beside the water flow will make you more wet due to water discharge is very large.

Before traveling down the river, a time to soak first. Then further down the fast-flowing river that is strong enough, making increasingly tired legs. After walking about 20 minutes, water droplets appear, indicating the waterfall Tumpak Sewu is imminent

Shortly thereafter, waterfall often called Little Niagara by some tourists there ever was seen. Circular cliffs and waterfalls that coincide perfectly integrated, as well as soaring water droplets into a perpetual fog that is very pretty. Awe, wonder and disbelief mingled unpalatable.

It's mandatory for those of you who claim to lovers of nature, like the challenge and the hobby of hunting to visit the place. But it must be vigilant, when the weather is less friendly and the physical condition does not allow.

And no less important, do not litter, and avoid activities scribble. I am not willing, if flake paradise beauty of the waterfall damaged by a hand that is not being responsible.

Penyabong Beach, One More Beautiful Beaches in Belitung

Beach destinations in the Belitung region as endless. The island is surrounded by beautiful beaches, one of which is beach Penyabong in District Membalong.

Traveling for more than an hour, we were treated with good paved roads are very quiet, no car other than the car we were riding, the motor can only be counted on the fingers. On the right side of the road there are many fruit trees such as mangosteen, rambutan and cashew planting in the front yard of the houses around, besides oil palm plantations also dominate the scene being viewed.

According to the driver who took us, first Membalong region slightly behind compared to other Pacific regions, it is because this area is not a tin mining area, but since the rise in commodity prices of pepper in the 1990s followed by the opening of oil palm plantations standard of living of many families in the region This becomes even better.

Prior to Penyabong Beach, our eyes amazed when we saw two pieces of granite are very large and towering burst through the dense forest. The stone has the name Batu Beginde.

Beginde stones told in a legend as the origin of Belitung Island. The legend tells about the pieces that drifted up the island of Bali to Sumatra. So that the name comes from Bali Truncated Belitong which later turned into Belitong. True or false? At least the story adds to the wealth of the origin of a name of the regions in Indonesia.

Finally we arrived at this beautiful beach. The moment we arrived existence is still very quiet only two cars parked travelers other than that there is no admission charged to tourists who visit this beach. Lonely beach is probably because the location is quite far from the city of Tanjung Pandan.

As well, its remote location when the beauty of white sand beaches and granite rocks is not inferior to other beaches besides the trees in beach Penyabong so shady. So so cool to be here.

While we walked to enjoy the beach under the trees, we can also learn the names of the board that read Latin in the tree. One form of appreciation of the results UGM university students on this beach.

For existing facilities on this beach is pretty good that there is a toilet and a rinse, a prayer room made of boards so that those who can still run religious Muslim prayers. If you feel hunger, yo do not need to worry because in here there are simple stalls selling snacks, coconut water and definite course seafood.

It turns on when the tide is low, there was a row of moss-covered rock, dibibir beach and coral reef has several niche, some fairly large-sized niche and it is almost 1 meter.

When the sea receded, much water is trapped in the alcove. So it becomes a sort of niche niche small pond or a kind of a natural jacuzzi. Skipping afternoon while soaking in the natural jacuzzi, a small beach that seemed to belong to a private, for me it does far more exclusive than a vacation to the Maldives or Bora Bora.

There are no signs to get to this beach, you have to walk about 15 minutes in the path between the shrubs and sometimes need a little change lanes because there are hordes of cows. But that extra struggle is what makes this adventure to be enjoyed more delicious.

Vacation to Bali seems not valid if not been to beaches spread almost in every coast of the island. One of the beaches I visited this time is the Pandawa.

The location is on the south side of Bali and could be gone for about 30 minutes, with a bike ride from my accommodation in Kuta area. For my first time to the beach Pandawa, is also fairly easy to find because of the many directions there.

Initially, I was less convinced of the beauty of this beach. Because during his visit, was no activity of heavy equipment in the driveway, precisely in a limestone hill. However, once the first step on the location of the photo that is on the edge of the hill, lay a beach with white sand and crystal clear water.

Not to forget, I of course take pictures in big writing Pandawa Beach and sculptures puppet characters that characterizes there. Down towards the beach, my eyes are pampered with white sand and calm surf. Without delay, I go down to enjoy the cold sea water.

Beautiful Lego Pari, Best Sunrise in Banten

Lego beach in the village of Pari Sawarna, Lebak increasingly famous among the traveler on a holiday weekend. The beach is the best place to see the sunrise across Banten. Beauty sunrise at Lego Pari second to none!

Lego Pari is one of the beaches that became a tourist destination in Sawarna village, Lebak, Banten. Its location is rather apart from other tourist attractions are still in the Village area Sawarna. To get here by foot or rented motorcycles.

My advice is better rent a motorcycle for a considerable distance. By motorcycle taxi takes 30 minutes, while the walk can reach 1 hour. Not to mention some pretty difficult track road with rocky slope.

Lego Pari such as bays or large overdraft, reportedly used on the beach is often found Pari fish, so named Lego Pari. Special about this beach, on the left side of white sand gently sloping, so we could bathe in the sea without any fear of contact with the coral.

While on his right side, there are rocks that are not too high, so it can be used as a foothold for fans of sport fishing or just walking on the rocks enjoying the small pools filled by a variety of marine life.

Pari Lego beach is also the best spot to see the sunrise in Sawarna. Character sloping beaches and unobstructed hill became one magnet for visitors to be willing to get up at 4 am and flocked on foot for 1 to 1 and a half hour past the difficult terrain in the early morning.

A bit of advice from me, for visitors who want to find a little quiet spot, try deh here. Because the location is a bit far from the inn and access is difficult, after sunrise euphoria subsided, ahead of 10 am this beach was quieter.

Bring enough drinking water, because sepenglihatan me, there are only 1-2 stalls here. And that's in a state of half-closed. Remain cautious, as to the location because of the rocky path that can make the motor slip several times
