Good night to all my beloved hive friends ♥️
Currently I am in Aceh Tamiang, precisely at my uncle's house, but I'm not sure how many days I will be here, but time is gold, so I will try to make the most of my time to visit some tourist attractions in Aceh Tamiang. And in this post I will tell you about my best experiences and this is about my trip to visit one of the most popular tourist destinations in Langsa city, namely the mangrove forest park, and from Langsa city we only need about 15 minutes to get to this place, believe me this is a truly extraordinary trip, especially for myself the reason is that this mangrove forest park is one of the tourist destinations that I have long wanted to visit, and this is the first time I have been able to set foot on this mangrove land, what an extraordinary achievement.
You need to know that this is the largest mangrove forest in Southeast Asia, this mangrove forest has an area of about 8,000 hectares, isn't that a very large size? So it is not surprising that many people say that the mangrove forest in Langsa city is one of the lungs of the world, and what is even more interesting is that in this mangrove forest we can see and find many types of mangrove trees, if I'm not mistaken there are 37 or 38 different types (Information I got from the mangrove forest officer)
This is the beautiful sight we can witness in the mangrove forest of Langsa City. The natural atmosphere is still very strong, from the pungent aromas of nature to the strange sounds that can be heard. This mangrove forest is so vast, it would be very tiring to share all my photos and experiences in one post, so there will be several part about my explorations in this mangrove forest.
This is a curved bridge that from a distance quite caught my attention, the paint color on this bridge is very harmonious with the natural atmosphere around it, coincidentally at that time the visitors who came to this place were not too crowded, so I could explore every area of this place, according to the confession of this mangrove forest officer, this place will be crowded with visitors on Sundays or other holidays, because visiting this mangrove forest will take quite a long time and also quite draining, this is because the size of this tourist destination is quite large
These are some of the views that I can see from the top of this arch bridge, starting from the river area to the view from a tower that looks quite magnificent, and the tower is called "Tower Mangrove Forest Park Langsa", and this tower is one of the tallest buildings in the city of Langsa, if I'm not mistaken this tower has 7 floors, and what's more interesting is that visitors can also climb the tower to the 7th floor.
The weather was extremely hot and the sun was very kind, but the dense mangrove trees allowed me to rest and seek shelter occasionally. I continued walking and exploring every corner of the place, I loved the cool, calm, and peaceful atmosphere. In short, this is one of the best natural tourist attractions in Aceh, in my opinion.
I'm not sure how many meters I'd walked at that point, but I was certainly quite far from the main road. There's nothing to worry about when exploring this mangrove forest, as it has complete facilities, including, most importantly, huts, restrooms, and small shops,however, physical fitness is also crucial when exploring this mangrove forest.
And this is a bathroom building and the second floor is used as a hut for resting, but at that time I chose not to stop by the building because I was not too tired at that time, I continued walking until I arrived at a very strategic area.
The bridge area is also very wide, maybe this area is used as a photo area, moreover the view that I can see from this area is also very amazing, one of the views that looked quite beautiful at that time was the view from the "Tower Mangrove Forest Park Langsa"
And in this area I chose to rest again, and suddenly there was an incident that made me very surprised at that time, namely a group of monkeys came towards me, at first I thought the monkeys wanted to attack me but it turned out my guess was wrong, it turned out the monkeys approached me just to ask for food, honestly I have never seen and found wild monkeys that are very tame like this, they are not at all afraid of humans but they are also not dangerous,but monkeys are still wild animals, so we must remain careful.
The view from this tower was clearly visible in front of my eyes, but the distance was still a long way and I had to walk a few hundred meters more to get to the tower, coincidentally I had a lot of time at that time so I would still try to approach the tower, of course I still have a lot of experiences while exploring this mangrove forest and I will share those experiences in my next post including when I explored the tower from the 1st floor to the 7th floor.Finished
