Mount Halimun Salak National Park (Curug Kondang)


Last holiday my friends and I were camping at Mount Halimun Salak National Park. Me, Camping! In the middle of nowhere with the tent, bonfire and all?! Of course not, hahaha..

Can you spot me?

The picture may fool you, none of us was actually sleeping at the tent. We rented a villa (Betawi Villa) and leaving the tent outside. FYI there are a lot of villas to rent inside the national park. It really refreshing to be out there in nature and have clean air to breath. As a true tropical climate citizen who uses to hot weather the water was freezing cold for me. The air was refreshing though also to cold for my liking. There were a lot of trees and not so many lamps it 

Yes, we did have fun hanging out here. It always nice to take time out of our daily routine and going somewhere with friends. The main attraction of this journey is that I can spend more time enjoying myself, met new friends, visiting the waterfall (Curug). There are a lot of small waterfalls here. 


I visited Curug Kondang. Kondang means famous... We need to pay a ticket to enter the Curug. It only IDR 5.000 very cheap. The way going to Curug is near and not dangerous, I guess that's one of the point why this one is famous. The way also reminds me of Taroko National Park in Taiwan. 


It really beautiful. After we arrived at the waterfall it not so high the water is clean and refreshing. The trees are green and become a nice background. After about 10 minutes we arrived there are about 50 children coming to the waterfall. The situation becomes way more crowded. So we decide to going back to the villa earlier than expected. It only 10 minutes walking from Betawi Villa to Curug Kondang. 


Even though it was crowded we were not worried because there was a post-rescue that will help the visitors in case of emergencies. In the post there was lifebuoy,  and the guard was standing by. I did think we could spend more time here but too many people visiting and we all tired because we only sleeping about 2-3 hours the night before.

For you who wait for the picture of the waterfall, you may disappointed because I won't post it :p I want you all to come here in Curug Kondang and see it by yourself. The beauty of it can't be described by a picture. The picture can't do justice for it. 

I love to share with you, and even better if I can get feedback from you ^_^ 
Don't hesitate to leave comment. See you on next post.. XOXO..

Weekend Travel around NTU Campus

Today is a holiday. I explore place around the dorm in holiday. I like the architecture here. And I found a tiny area for children to play. The children can play happily here. In Taipei, most of the citizen living in apartment, they don't have their own garden. This public space for children is very useful. This is very nice. The child plays happily Even though I do a solo travelling but I feel safe because the neighbourhood is not crowded. My destination is Taipei Grand Mosque. I search on google map it is not far from the dorm. So I go there and planning to pray there. Taipei Grand Mosque It is not as big as I imagine considering Indonesia grand mosque is so big with 10 floor. The mosque only has 2 floors but it is clean and comfortable. I pretty impress because there are a lot of people in the mosque. Apparently, there is someone die. In Muslim rules if there is someone die then at least 40 people should pray for the corpse and wishing he has a pleasant

Shung Ye Museum and Taiwan's National Palace Museum

Back to my story while I was in Taiwan joining BACT NTU. That day July 14th 2018 we went to National Palace Museum, but first we were coming to Shung Ye Museum of Formosan Aborigin. It located very near from National Palace Museum, only 5 minute walking. We use city bus to go there. This is my first time using bus in Taiwan. I like to ride the bus. It is clean and comfortable, I sit with Sarah and she said she also like to use public transportation.  Inside Shung Ye Museum of Formosan Aborigin We have guided tour here. The tour guide is very good on explaining the content of the museum. First she take us to look around in th first floor. The first floor is about people and natural environment of Taiwan. An introduction to environment inhabited by Taiwan indigenous people is displayed. The interpretation of the aborigin people is displayed in an informative board. There is a Yami (Tao) fishing boat representing the maritime environment. The most interesting part in the firs
