Sering terdengar kabar ada pengunjung pantai selatan hilang terseret gelombang. Anehnya, jenazah pengunjung yang nahas itu, menghilang bagaikan ditelan bumi. Tim SAR rata-rata baru bisa menemukan jenazahnya 2-3 hari kemudian setelah melakukan penyisiran. Biasanya, lokasi penemuan mayat tidak pada area di mana pengunjung tersebut tertelan ombak. Mayat ditemukan ratusan meter, bahkan kadang beberapa kilometer dari lokasi semula.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-y9DaoSobNo0/TZsf7-xuwCI/AAAAAAAAIL0/AXNEaP5UfPg/s1600/Pantai%2BParangTritis1.jpg&quot; style=&quot;color: #3366cc; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592098477634928674&quot; pxz:uid=&quot;b0f3f37e30-4&quot; src=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-y9DaoSobNo0/TZsf7-xuwCI/AAAAAAAAIL0/AXNEaP5UfPg/s400/Pantai%2BParangTritis1.jpg&quot; style=&quot;background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-color: initial; border-left-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-left-style: none; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-right-style: none; border-right-width: 1px; border-top-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-top-style: none; border-top-width: 1px; border-width: initial; cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 300px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 99%; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center; width: 450px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana;&quot;&gt;Di kalangan masyarakat setempat, kejadian misterius semacam itu, semakin menguatkan mitos bahwa penguasa laut yang lazim disebut Nyi Roro Kidul (Ratu Pantai Selatan), suka &quot;melenyapkan&quot; orang yang tidak mengindahkan kaidah alam. Dari sisi ilmiah, kejadian semacam itu makin menguatkan teori bahwa palung laut selatan Jawa memang sarat arus bawah yang terus bergerak. Benda apa saja yang terseret ombak dari bibir pantai, terseret ke bawah dan terdampar pada lokasi berbeda.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XtzfZqZvK58/TZsf7tZcJ5I/AAAAAAAAILs/PsJkmZ_pw2I/s1600/Pantai%2BParangTritis.jpg&quot; style=&quot;color: #3366cc; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592098472969643922&quot; pxz:uid=&quot;b0f3f37e31-5&quot; src=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XtzfZqZvK58/TZsf7tZcJ5I/AAAAAAAAILs/PsJkmZ_pw2I/s400/Pantai%2BParangTritis.jpg&quot; style=&quot;background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-color: initial; border-left-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-left-style: none; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-right-style: none; border-right-width: 1px; border-top-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-top-style: none; border-top-width: 1px; border-width: initial; cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 300px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 99%; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center; width: 450px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana;&quot;&gt;Kepercayaan masyarakat setempat tentang legenda&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana; font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Nyi Roro Kidul&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;juga dengan sendirinya melahirkan pesona tersendiri. Hampir setiap malam Jumat Kliwon dan Selasa Kliwon, para pengunjung maupun nelayan setempat melakukan upacara ritual di pantai tersebut. Acara ritual diwarnai pelarungan sesajen dan kembang warna-warni ke laut. Puncak acara ritual biasanya terjadi pada malam 1 Suro, dan dua-tiga hari setelah hari raya Idul Fitri dan Idul Adha. Intinya, nelayan meminta keselamatan dan kemurahan rezeki dari penguasa bumi dan langit.&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/1939540836633610804/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2011/08/indahnya-pantai-parangtritis.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/1939540836633610804'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/1939540836633610804'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2011/08/indahnya-pantai-parangtritis.html' title='Indahnya Pantai Parangtritis'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_D5TxtsY69D0/S_5H6fEgDHI/AAAAAAAACI8/emyRltiN1es/s72-c/parangtritis-1.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-2578284560640448607</id><published>2011-04-09T07:52:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2011-04-09T07:52:10.638+07:00</updated><title type='text'>Danau Dua Rasa</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Jauh di pedalaman Kalimantan Timur sana, terbentanglah Danau Labuan Cermin.

Jika dilihat di peta, letaknya tepat di punggung hidung Kalimantan. Tempat ini bisa ditempuh dalam tiga jam perjalanan laut dari Derawan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagian atas Danau Labuan Cermin berisi air tawar seperti danau pada umumnya. Namun beberapa meter di bawahnya terdapat aliran air asin. Anehnya, kedua jenis air ini tidak tercampur. Secara kasat mata dapat dilihat bahwa air laut dan air tawar dipisahkan oleh lapisan serupa awan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Belum ada yang melakukan penelitian di daerah ini sehingga terbentuknya fenomena ini masih menjadi misteri.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lapisan keruh berwarna putih itu diduga hasil pembusukan organisme dasar labuhan yang terperangkap dan tak bisa pergi. Dua jenis air di danau ini juga menghadirkan organisme dari dua dunia. Ikan air tawar hidup di permukaan, sedangkan ikan air laut bisa ditemukan di dasar danau.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__2/inspirationsid-895475007-1300174790.jpg?ymGvKtEDVgBAVsr.&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;border-collapse: separate; color: black; font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #666666; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The Nature Conservancy/Rudyantoi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saat saya kesana, kebetulan lapisan air tawar sedang tipis. Awak kapal menyelam dan sempat mencicipi air asin di kedalaman sekitar dua meter. Rupanya ketebalan lapisan air tawar dan air asin bisa berubah sesuai dengan pasang-surut air laut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Danau mungil ini dikelilingi hutan dan ada tebing menjulang tinggi di salah satu sisinya. Sambil berenang kami disuguhi musik hutan — suara burung dan serangga. Tak mengherankan jika danau ini diberi nama Labuan Cermin: airnya jernih sekali sampai orang bisa bercermin di atasnya. Arus di beberapa tempat cukup kuat dan mudah menyeret orang yang tak bisa berenang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__2/inspirationsid-341784899-1300174790.jpg?ymGvKtEDQgig_PBQ&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;border-collapse: separate; color: black; font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #666666; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The Nature Conservancy/Rudyanto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Untuk menuju tempat ini kami harus menumpang sampan nelayan dan melewati perjalanan selama 15 menit, menembus semak bakau dan hutan. Hutan itu masih dihuni aneka binatang liar seperti monyet, bekantan, berang-berang dan beruang madu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Karena jaraknya cukup jauh dari kota, jarang atau hampir tidak ada turis yang berkunjung ke sini. Tempat ini hanya dikenal oleh orang-orang lokal dari sekitar daerah itu. Fasilitas dan prasarana pun masih seadanya. Tempat kami menginap adalah sebuah Pusat Informasi Nelayan (PIN) binaan The Nature Conservancy, lembaga pegiat pelestarian lingkungan yang mengundang saya mengunjungi tempat ini.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PIN berbentuk rumah panggung di tepi muara sebuah sungai, hanya beberapa ratus meter dari laut. Rumah itu punya semacam dermaga kecil tempat menambatkan perahu. Sungai di depan PIN berair payau. Kadar keasinannya tergantung pada pasang-surut air laut. Ketika laut surut, sungai berubah menjadi sangat jernih sehingga dasarnya dapat dilihat dengan jelas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__2/inspirationsid-199917595-1300174789.jpg?ymFvKtEDtnywRUsW&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;border-collapse: separate; color: black; font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #666666; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The Nature Conservancy/Rudyanto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dari beranda kita bisa melihat ikan berseliweran. Ardi, anak nelayan yang suka bermain di PIN menjelaskan pada kami jenis-jenis ikan itu. Ada ikan yang banyak durinya, ada ikan yang menyengat dan ikan yang bertubuh pipih panjang. Tak hanya dikunjungi oleh para nelayan, PIN juga menjadi tempat berkumpul anak-anak nelayan yang hendak menonton film tentang kehidupan laut atau membaca koleksi perpustakaan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hari mulai gelap saat beberapa nelayan berangkat melaut. Adapun kami menghabiskan malam dengan minum kopi di beranda dan menatap air sungai dan bulan nyaris purnama.

Tak mengherankan sebab keindahan tempat ini sungguh memukau. Malino sudah menjadi lokasi wisata favorit sejak zaman kolonial Belanda.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Hutan pinus yang teduh disertai pemandangan laksana lukisan alam membuat kita terbuai. Ditambah lagi udara pegunungan yang sejuk membuat suasana hati menjadi tenteram dan nyaman. Tak salah jika Malino dijadikan sebagai tempat pertemuan untuk mencapai kesepakatan damai bagi pihak-pihak yang bertikai. Kesejukannya mendamaikan dan panorama alamnya sungguh meneduhkan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Tapi tidak hanya keindahan hutan pinus saja yang bisa Anda nikmati. Di pagi hari, Anda bisa jalan-jalan ke Pasar Sentral Malino, berbelanja sayur-mayur dan buah-buahan segar. Setelah itu sempatkan singgah sarapan di kedai-kedai yang tersedia di pinggir hutan pinus — tak jauh dari Pasar Sentral. Sembari menyeruput kopi panas di sela-sela hawa dingin pegunungan, Anda bisa menikmati jejeran pohon pinus yang berbaris rapi dan rindang.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Anda bahkan bisa menunggang kuda dengan tarif Rp 10 ribu sekali keliling atau Rp 50 ribu per jam. Saya masih ingat betul pernah beberapa kali terjatuh saat mencoba menaiki kuda yang akan saya tunggangi karena gugup dan sedikit takut. Akhirnya setelah beberapa kali mencoba, saya begitu menikmati pengalaman pertama kali menunggang kuda meski masih dituntun &quot;sang pawang&quot;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Ke arah utara dari hutan pinus, terdapat kebun teh yang dikelola sebuah perusahaan swasta. Untuk menuju ke sana dibutuhkan perjuangan besar karena mesti melalui medan yang cukup sulit. Namun ketika sampai, Anda akan terpukau oleh pemandangan alam yang terhampar. Kehijauan daun teh yang berpadu dengan lekuk-lekuk pegunungan Bawakaraeng menjadi sebuah pesona tersendiri yang menyisakan kesan mendalam. Di sana Anda pun bisa menikmati teh Malino beraroma khas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Sekitar 10 km dari Malino ke arah timur, Anda bisa mengunjungi air terjun Takapala. Jalan yang berkelak-kelok dengan pemandangan alam pegunungan akan menemani perjalanan Anda menuju air terjun berketinggian sekitar 60 meter ini.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Selain Takapala, ada pula air terjun Lembanna yang berjarak 8 km dari kota Malino. Pemandian Lembah Biru serta tanaman hortikultura di daerah Karenpia, serta kekayaan flora dan fauna juga bisa menjadi pilihan Anda dalam berwisata di Malino.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: #333333; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Pemerintah setempat tampaknya telah menyiapkan kawasan ini sebagai daerah wisata terpadu beserta segenap fasilitas yang dimilikinya.

Salah satu agendanya adalah kunjungan ke Mesjid Kubah Emas. Ini adalah kunjungan pertama saya ke mesjid yang megah dan fenomenal tersebut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masjid yang terletak di Jalan Meruyung Kecamatan Limo Kota Depok, Jawa Barat ini diresmikan pada 31 Desember 2006, bertepatan dengan pelaksanaan sholat Idul Adha 1427 H, oleh pendirinya Ibu Hj Dian Juriah Maimun Al Rasyid dan Bapak Drs H. Maimun Al Rasyid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__1/inspirationsid-740787815-1283920097.jpg?ymiTKvDDmDv75YlN&quot; style=&quot;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; &quot; /&gt;&lt;cite style=&quot;font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); &quot;&gt;Photo credits - Amril Taufik Gobel&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masjid yang menempati area dengan luas 8000 m2 ini berdiri di atas tanah seluas 50 hektar, dan merupakan bagian dari konsep pengembangan sebuah kawasan terpadu bernama Kawasan Islamic Center Dian Al-Mahri. Masjid ini mampu menampung 15 ribu jamaah untuk pelaksanaan sholat dan 20 ribu jamaah untuk pelaksanaan majelis taklim. Kawasan mesjid ini disebut-sebut sebagai yang termegah di Asia Tenggara. Pada hari biasa, masjid dikunjungi oleh 10 ribu pengunjung sementara di akhir pekan meningkat jadi 20 ribu hingga 30 ribu pengunjung. Masjid ini mempunyai tempat parkir seluas 7.000 meter persegi yang dapat menampung 300 kendaraan roda empat atau 1.400 kendaraan bermotor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oleh sang pendiri, masjid megah dan indah ini diniatkan tidak hanya menjadi simbol keagungan Islam, namun juga akan berfokus pada pengembangan kebudayaan Islam di Indonesia. Saat ini memang yang baru dibangun adalah masjid yang megah, kediaman pendiri Masjid Kubah Emas, Hj Dian Djuariah Maimun Al Rasyid, serta sebuah gedung serba guna yang dapat digunakan sebagai resepsi pernikahan atau acara lainnya dan taman yang indah luas. Pengembangan berikutnya adalah pembangunan sarana pendidikan berupa pesantren, mulai dari taman kanak-kanak hingga perguruan tinggi, serta pembangunan gedung dakwah sebagai pusat syiar Islam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__1/inspirationsid-908566599-1283920097.jpg?ymhTKvDDELgTOlvm&quot; style=&quot;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; &quot; /&gt;&lt;cite style=&quot;font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); &quot;&gt;Photo credits - Amril Taufik Gobel&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saat pertama kali tiba di sana, kilau emas yang berada pada kubah mesjid ini terlihat bersinar terang. Bahkan dari kejauhan, dari atas bis yang membawa rombongan kami, warna keemasan kubahnya terlihat sangat menyolok. Sungguh mengundang decak kagum. Masjid ini memang beken disebut sebagai Masjid Kubah Emas karena memang kubahnyai dilapisi emas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masjid Dian Al Mahri memiliki lima kubah yang merupakan simbol dari rukun Islam. Satu kubah utama dan empat kubah kecil. Uniknya, seluruh kubah dilapisi emas setebal 2-3 milimeter dan mozaik kristal. Bentuk kubah utama menyerupai kubah Taj Mahal. Kubah tersebut memiliki diameter bawah 16 meter, diameter tengah 20 meter, dan tinggi 25 meter. Sementara empat kubah kecil memiliki diameter bawah 6 meter, tengah 7 meter, dan tinggi 8 meter. Selain itu di dalam masjid terdapat lampu gantung yang didatangkan langsung dari Italia seberat 8 ton. Lampu tersebut serupa dengan lampu di Masjid Sultan Oman. Di belakang lampu indah tersebut, langit-langit kubah berganti warna pada setiap waktu salat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Relief hiasan di atas tempat imam juga terbuat dari emas 18 karat. Begitu juga pagar di lantai dua dan hiasan kaligrafi di langit-langit masjid. Sedangkan mahkota pilar masjid yang berjumlah 168 buah berlapis bahan prada atau sisa emas. Di dasar kubah, terdapat cincin dengan aksen warna emas. Di bawahnya terdapat 33 jendela, yang masing-masing dihiasi kaligrafi asma Allah, sehingga Asmaul Husna pun terpampang di tiap jendela.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__1/inspirationsid-587147793-1283920096.jpg?ymhTKvDDl4tb9ccZ&quot; style=&quot;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; &quot; /&gt;&lt;cite style=&quot;font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); &quot;&gt;Photo credits - Amril Taufik Gobel&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masjid ini terdiri dari enam menara (minaret) berbentuk segi enam, masing-masing terdiri dari enam tingkat yang melambangkan rukun iman dan tingginya 40 meter. Keenamnya dibalut batu granit berwarna abu-abu dengan ornamen melingkar pada setiap tingkatannya. Pada puncak minaret terdapat kubah berlapis mozaik emas 24 karat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tipologi arsitektur masjid-masjid di Timur Tengah memang diadaptasi oleh Masjid Kubah Emas ini. dengan ciri kubah, minaret (menara), halaman dalam (plaza), dan penggunaan detail atau hiasan dekoratif dengan elemen geometris dan obelisk, untuk memperkuat ciri keislaman arsitekturnya. Ciri lainnya adalah gerbang masuk berupa portal dan hiasan geometris serta obelisk sebagai ornamen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saya menatap takjub bagian-bagian masjid kubah emas ini sembari membayangkan tingkat kesulitan pembuatannya yang konon sudah dimulai sejak 2001. Terlihat jelas, dari ornament maupun relief yang terpatri menunjukkan kemampuan professional pembuatnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ada pemisahan antara pintu masuk pria dan wanita. Juga ada aturan pula bahwa untuk masuk ke dalam masjid, diwajibkan memakai pakaian yang menutup aurat, sehingga kaum hawa yang berkunjung ke sana harus mengenakan jilbab.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tersedia tempat penitipan alas kaki/sandal dan tidak boleh ditinggal di luar. Ketika saya tiba, sudah menjelang waktu sholat Dhuhur sehingga halaman luar lantai masjid yang diterpa sinar mentari menjadi panas. Pengurus masjid kerap menyiapkan karpet plastik untuk mengurangi panasnya lantai halaman masjid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__1/inspirationsid-76929704-1283920097.jpg?ymhTKvDDtVInOAg_&quot; style=&quot;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; &quot; /&gt;&lt;cite style=&quot;font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); &quot;&gt;Photo credits - Amril Taufik Gobel&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Terdapat larangan menginjak rumput yang ada di taman sekitar masjid. Akan tetapi bagi pengunjung yang ingin sekedar beristirahat, di seberang masjid ada ruang serbaguna yang disediakan. Banyak pengunjung yang menggelar tikar di sana sembari menikmati keindahan masjid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Areal selasar masjid berukuran 45 x 57 m, dan mampu menampung 8000 jamah. Salah satu sisinya berhubungan dengan ruang salat, sedangkan ketiga sisi lainnya dibatasi selasar dengan pilar-pilar berbalut batu granit dari Brasil. Pilar-pilat tersebut membentuk deretan arcade yang seolah menjadi pembatas dari halaman dalam. Ruang utama masjid berukuran 45 × 57 meter yang bisa menampung 8 ribu jamaah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bersama anggota rombongan lainnya, saya dan Rizky, menunaikan sholat Dhuhur berjamaah di masjid itu. Keagungan dan kemuliaan Allah SWT sang Maha Pencipta terefleksi secara menakjubkan pada bangunan masjid yang megah ini.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagi Anda yang berminat mengunjungi Masjid Kubah Emas relatif tidak terlalu sulit, karena dapat ditempuh dari beberapa arah. Dari arah Terminal Depok, pengunjung yang menggunakan kendaraan pribadi dapat mengambil jalan menuju arah Kecamatan Sawangan. Setelah sampai di pertigaan Parung Bingung, pengunjung disarankan berbelok ke kanan ke arah Kecamatan Cinere, lalu menuju lokasi masjid. Jarak antara pertigaan Parung Bingung ke lokasi masjid sekitar 3—4 km.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagi pengunjung yang menggunakan angkutan umum, dari Terminal Kota Depok, dapat berangkat menggunakan jasa angkutan kota (angkot) nomor 03 menuju pertigaan Parung Bingung. Dari pertigaan ini, pengunjung disarankan menggunakan ojek menuju Masjid Kubah Emas. Kota Depok berjarak sekitar 7 km dari Masjid Kubah Emas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sedangkan untuk pengunjung yang berangkat dari Terminal Lebak Bulus atau Terminal Pondok Labu di Jakarta Selatan, dapat menggunakan jasa angkutan kota (angkot) bernomor 102 menuju pertigaan Parung Bingung, kemudian belok kanan menuju arah lokasi masjid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masjid Kubah Emas dibuka setiap hari untuk umum pada pukul 04.00—06.00 WIB dan pada pukul 10.00—20.00 WIB. Pada hari Kamis, masjid ini ditutup untuk persiapan kebersihan shalat Jumat. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://id.travel.yahoo.com/jalan-jalan/19-wisata-religi-ke-masjid-kubah-emas&quot;&gt;Wisata Religi ke Masjid Kubah Emas | Jalan Jalan Yuk! | Yahoo!

padding-left: 0px; &quot;&gt;Oleh Amril Taufik Gobel&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tak lengkap rasanya jika Anda berkunjung ke Sumatera Utara tidak mampir sejenak ke Danau Toba, danau vulkanik yang merupakan danau terbesar di Indonesia, bahkan Asia Tenggara. Pesona eksotisnya berupa hamparan danau luas laksana lautan dengan pepohonan rindang dan perbukitan yang menawan. Danau ini berukuran 1700 meter persegi dengan kedalaman kurang lebih 450 meter dan terletak 906 meter di atas permukaan laut, di tengah danau terdapat Pulau Samosir yang tak kalah menariknya menjadi objek kunjungan wisata.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__1/inspirationsid-434812078-1287119756.jpg?ymMeX7DDOwolj8Gi&quot; style=&quot;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; &quot; /&gt;&lt;cite style=&quot;font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); &quot;&gt;Photo credits - Arie Basuki/Tempo&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dalam kunjungannya pada 1996, Pangeran Bernard dari Belanda bahkan menyatakan kekagumannya pada panorama indah danau ini. “Juallah nama saya untuk danau ini. Saya tak dapat melukiskan betapa indahnya Danau Toba,” katanya antusias.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ada tujuh kabupaten di sekeliling danau, yakni Simalungun, Toba Samosir, Tapanuli Utara, Humbang Hasundutan, Dairi, Karo, dan Samosir yang memiliki panorama alam indah dan menjadi lokasi tujuan wisata. Umumnya wisatawan menikmati keelokan Danau Toba dari Parapat di Simalungun dan Tuktuk Siadong di Pulau Samosir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Diperkirakan Danau Toba terjadi saat ledakan sekitar 73 ribu-75 ribu tahun lalu dan merupakan letusan super volcano (gunung berapi super) yang paling baru. Bill Rose dan Craig Chesner dari Michigan Technological University memperkirakan bahwa bahan-bahan vulkanik yang dimuntahkan gunung itu sebanyak 2.800 km³, dengan 800 km³ batuan ignimbrit dan 2.000 km³ abu vulkanik yang diperkirakan tertiup angin ke barat selama dua minggu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;clear&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; zoom: 1; &quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;media&quot; style=&quot;display: block; float: left; width: 240px; margin-top: 2px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-left: 0px; &quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__1/inspirationsid-210011814-1287119757.jpg?ymNeX7DDIPR4OtXB&quot; style=&quot;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; float: none; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: 0px; display: block; &quot; /&gt;&lt;cite style=&quot;font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); &quot;&gt;Photo credits - Agung Chandra/Tempo&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Debu vulkanik yang ditiup angin telah menyebar ke separuh bumi, dari Cina sampai ke Afrika Selatan. Letusannya terjadi selama satu minggu dan lontaran debunya mencapai 10 km di atas permukaan laut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kejadian ini menyebabkan kematian massal dan, pada beberapa spesies, juga diikuti kepunahan. Menurut beberapa bukti DNA, letusan ini juga menyusutkan jumlah manusia sampai sekitar 60% dari jumlah populasi manusia bumi saat itu, yaitu sekitar 60 juta manusia. Letusan itu juga ikut menyebabkan terjadinya zaman es, walaupun para ahli masih memperdebatkannya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Setelah letusan tersebut, terbentuk kaldera yang kemudian terisi oleh air dan menjadi yang sekarang dikenal sebagai Danau Toba. Tekanan ke atas oleh magma yang belum keluar menyebabkan munculnya Pulau Samosir. Ketika menikmati keindahan danau ini, Anda mungkin tak membayangkan bahwa pesona yang terjadi berasal dari bencana dahsyat letusan gunung berapi yang mendatangkan ketakutan dan kengerian ketika itu.&lt;br /&gt;Perjalanan darat ke Danau Toba, tepatnya ke Parapat, memakan waktu empat sampai lima jam dari Medan. Tersedia bus atau travel yang langsung menuju Parapat. Rutenya melewati Lubuk Pakam, Tebing Tinggi, dan belok ke arah Pematang Siantar. Sepanjang perjalanan, kita disuguhi panorama perkebunan kelapa sawit dan karet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apabila menggunakan kereta api, dari Medan pilih rute menuju Pematang Siantar. Dari sini perjalanan dilanjutkan menggunakan bus ke Parapat. Waktu tempuhnya satu jam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/inspirationsid__1/inspirationsid-603242756-1287119756.jpg?ymMeX7DDsKS43nHF&quot; style=&quot;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; &quot; /&gt;&lt;cite style=&quot;font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); &quot;&gt;Photo credits - Agung Chandra/Tempo&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Untuk tempat menginap dan tinggal lebih lama menikmati keindahan Danau Toba, tersedia banyak hotel dan penginapan. Di Parapat, sedikitnya ada 900 kamar hotel berbagai jenis, mulai dari bintang empat hingga homestay, di Tuktuk juga tak berbeda. Baik di Parapat maupun Tuktuk, wisatawan dapat langsung menikmati danau dari pinggirannya. Tarif hotel di Tuktuk dan Parapat bervariasi, sesuai tipikal turis yang datang. Mulai dari Rp 30 ribu hingga Rp 500 ribu per malam tergantung tipe hotel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sebuah perusahaan travel bahkan menawarkan menikmati keindahan Danau Toba dari udara, yakni menggunakan paralayang. Setiap wisatawan diberi kesempatan terbang menggunakan paralayang dari kawasan pegunungan Tongging, Kabupaten Tanah Karo, Sumatera Utara. Bagi para wisatawan yang ingin mencoba paralayang akan ditemani seorang instruktur berpengalaman, namun tentunya penentuan bisa terbang atau tidak tergantung pada kondisi cuaca dan angin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tidak hanya itu, menikmati keindahan matahari terbit dan terbenam bisa Anda nikmati dari pesisir danau. Dari dataran tinggi Karo di sebelah utara, keelokan danau terlihat memanjang dipandang dari Sikodonkodon. Namun, hanya ada satu resor di sini. Di sisi barat, pemandangan danau dan Pulau Samosir dapat dengan sempurna disaksikan dari Tele.

Yang pertama di&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Cisarua&lt;/strong&gt;, Bogor, Jawa Barat.

Dan lokasi ketiga berada di&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Bali&lt;/strong&gt;. Dari ketiga lokasi tersebut, di Cisarua merupakan lokasi pertama berdirinya Taman Safari di Indonesia.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Bagi Anda yang tinggal di daerah Jakarta, mengunjungi Taman Safari yang berada di Cisarua mungkin menjadi pilihan. Hal ini disebabkan karena daerah Puncak telah menjadi tempat rekreasi favorit bagi masyarakat Jakarta karena letaknya yang tidak terlalu jauh, berkisar 80 km dari Jakarta dan dapat ditempuh dalam waktu 1 - 2 jam jika jalanan tidak macet.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Ada cukup banyak petunjuk di sepanjang jalan menuju Taman Safari mulai pintu keluar tol yang dapat memudahkan Anda menuju lokasi ini. Letak daerah Cisarua berada belum sampai puncak pass dari gunung Pangrango. Dari arah tol menuju puncak, Anda akan menemukan petunjuk pintu masuk Taman Safari yang ada di sebelah kanan.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Berbelok ke arah kanan menuju pintu gerbang, jalanan menanjak harus ditempuh. Di sepanjang jalan ini terdapat beberapa penginapan yang dapat menjadi pilihan jika Anda ingin bermalam di daerah ini. Anda juga akan menjumpai pedagang wortel, pisang, atau sayuran pada jalan ini. Wortel dan sayuran ini dapat Anda beli untuk memberi makanan binatang yang ada di Taman Safari. Untuk wortel harganya berkisar Rp 10.000,- untuk 4 ikat. Ada juga penjual jagung bakar yang dapat mengganjal perut Anda dari rasa lapar dan udara dingin.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Sebuah gerbang yang menyerupai gading gajah menandakan Anda hampir sampai di loket karcis masuk. Harga karcis masuk Taman Safari Rp 75.000,- untuk orang dewasa, untuk karcis mobil, Anda harus membayar Rp 15.000,-. Sedangkan untuk penjung atau wisatawan asing, harga karcis masuk 2 kali lipat. Harga ini berlaku setiap hari, tanpa membedakan weekday (hari kerja) atau weekend (akhir pekan). Anda akan mendapat peta yang berisi lokasi dan tempat-tempat yang ada di taman rekreasi ini, jadwal pertunjukan atraksi hewan juga rute yang akan Anda lalui beserta urutan binatang apa saja yang akan Anda temui. Sebaiknya, Anda menyimpan peta ini agar memudahkan Anda menemukan yang ingin Anda kunjungi.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h2 style=&quot;border-bottom-color: rgb(234, 83, 23); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #5c960b; font-family: Georgia, &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, Times, serif; font-size: 20px; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span id=&quot;binatang&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Berbagai Binatang&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Memasuki area binatang, Anda harus melalui jalan dengan rumput dan pepohonan di kiri kanan jalan. Pada bagian pertama, Anda akan disambut oleh zebra. Kuda berwarna unik hitam putih ini akan meminta makanan dan mereka senang untuk menjulurkan kepalanya ke jendela mobil Anda. Pada bagian hewan jinak, Anda dapat membuka kaca dan memberi makanan kepada mereka. Beberapa hewan akan &quot;memaksa&quot; Anda memberi makanan dengan cara berdiri di depan mobil Anda. Tetapi, hal ini biasanya tidak berlangsung lama karena ada pawang yang menjaga di beberapa tempat yang akan mengarahkan mereka.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Pada bagian binatang buas seperti macan tutul, harimau, singa dan beruang ada gerbang otomatis yang akan membuka saat mobil hendak melintas. Anda mungkin akan merasa sedikit tegang saat memasuki area binatang buas. Pada bagian harimau dan singa tempat dibuat menyerupai puing-puing bangunan. Mereka biasanya senang berada di bagian atas sambil mengamati daerah sekitar. Pada bagian beruang, kita dapat melihat beruang-beruang besar yang sedang tidur atau sedang bermain.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h2 style=&quot;border-bottom-color: rgb(234, 83, 23); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #5c960b; font-family: Georgia, &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, Times, serif; font-size: 20px; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span id=&quot;permainan&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Area Permainan dan Pertunjukkan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Keluar dari rute melihat binatang yang dibuat layak seperti habitat aslinya, ada berbagai wahana lain yang dapat Anda nikmati di tempat rekreasi ini. Beberapa mainan yang menggunakan mesin seperti &quot;Mini Kora-Kora&quot;, &quot;Jet Coaster&quot;, &quot;Spinning Boat&quot; dan wahana lainnya dapat dicoba. Hanya saja, untuk menikmati pemainan ini Anda harus membayar Rp 10.000,- untuk setiap permainan.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: #0c3646; font-family: Helvetica, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: -1px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Safari Water Park&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Bagi Anda yang gemar berenang, Anda dapat mencoba berenang di&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Safari Water Park&lt;/strong&gt;. Yang unik dari berenang di sini adalah Anda dapat merasakan sensasi berenang bersama buaya. Tentu saja tidak secara langsung karena ada pemisah antara kolam renang dengan buaya. Anda dapat mencoba untuk menaiki seluncuran yang menantang dan merasakan dinginnya air pegunungan yang mengisi kolam renang ini.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: #0c3646; font-family: Helvetica, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: -1px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Pertunjukkan&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Berbagai atraksi binatang dapat Anda saksikan secara gratis. Ada atraksi gajah, harimau, aneka satwa,burung, lumba-lumba dan singa laut, sirkus maupun koboi. Pertunjukan berlangsung 2-3 kali sehari. Pada atraksi ini, Anda dapat menyaksikan bagaimana pintarnya binatang tersebut dan tingkah mereka yang mengundang tawa. Misalnya, tingkah orang utan yang lucu atau bagaimana pandainya gajah yang dapat melukis.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Semua atraksi binatang memiliki cerita yang mendidik, umumnya bertema agar manusia tidak merusak lingkungan sekitar yang dapat mengganggu kehidupan binatang dan dapat merugikan manusia sendiri. Pada akhir pertunjukkan, Anda dapat berfoto dengan binatang yang beratraksi. Sedangkan pada atraksi harimau, Anda dapat berfoto dengan harimau putih yang berukuran cukup besar. Untuk berfoto dengan harimau ini, Anda harus membayar Rp 10.000,- jika foto seorang diri atau Rp 25.000,- jika lebih dari 1 orang.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: #0c3646; font-family: Helvetica, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: -1px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Baby Zoo&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Kawasan Baby Zoo&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;logopicr&quot; src=&quot;http://kumpulan.info/images/stories/travel/baby-zoo-safari.jpg&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-color: initial; border-left-style: none; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-style: none; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-style: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-width: initial; float: right; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 7px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; title=&quot;Kawasan Baby Zoo&quot; /&gt;Wahana yang banyak dikunjungi adalah Baby Zoo. Pada bagian depan Baby Zoo, anak-anak dapat mencoba untuk menunggang kuda poni, kuda mungil yang memiliki poni pada bagian atas kepalanya membuat kuda ini terlihat menggemaskan.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Disebut Baby Zoo, karena di dalamnya terdapat anak dari binatang-binatang. Memasuki Baby Zoo, Anda akan menjumpai anak kudanil yang akan membuka mulutnya untuk memminta makan. Anda dapat menyentuhnya sambil memberi makanan. Ada juga sejenis primata dengan ukuran besar yang akan menengadahkan tangannya untuk meminta makan di samping anak kudanil ini.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Masuk ke bagian lebih dalam, ada bangunan yang dibuat seperti Taj Mahal yang ada di India. Dengan dibatasi tembok dan pembatas bening, Anda dapat meihat harimau putih Yang menarik dari kawasan Baby Zoo adalah Anda dapat berfoto dengan binatang yang umumnya masih merupakan anak-anak. Inilah yang menyebabkan daerah ini disebut Baby Zoo. Dengan membayar Rp 10.000,- per orang untuk tiap foto, Anda dapat memilih untuk berfoto dengan anak singa, anak macan tutul, bayi orang utan, anak harimau putih atau harimau Sumatra yang berukuran cukup besar. Foto diambil menggunakan kamera Anda pribadi karena pihak Taman Safari tidak menyediakan kamera atau fotografer. Dengan dijaga oleh pawang, Anda kan dibantu untuk memangku atau memegang binatang-binatang ini. Rasanya cukup menyenangkan, karena ini pengalaman yang sulit ditemukan dimana Anda dapat memegang binatang buas dan mengabadikannya dalam foto.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-size: small; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 7px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Masih dalam kawasan Baby Zoo, Anda dapat melihat koleksi unggas yang terdiri dari berbagai jenis dalam Bird Aviary.

padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Dibandingkan dengan Tari Legong dan Kecak, Joged kalah pamor dalam brosur-brosur pariwisata Bali. Tapi di Bali, tari ini termasuk tari yang populer. Tari ini merupakan tari pergaulan yang memiliki pola gerak lincah, dinamis dan bebas. Yang dimaksud bebas di sini adalah bahwa gerak-gerak dalam tarian tersebut tidak terikat oleh pakem dan komposisi yang ketat.&lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;Penari dapat melakukan banyak improvisasi, terutama saat meladeni partisipasi penonton (laki-laki) yang turut menari dengannya. Tari ini biasanya dipentaskan untuk suasana sukacita pada musim panen dan hari-hari besar.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Dasar gerak tari ini adalah gerakan tari Legong dan Kekebyaran. Ada banyak macam tari Joged di Bali, yaitu Joged Bumbung, Joged Pingitan, Joged Gebyog, Joged Gadrung, Joged Leko, dan Joged Dadua. Kecuali Joged Pingitan, semua pertunjukan Joged selalu ditarikan secara berpasangan. Biasanya setelah menarikan tarian pembuka, penari akan nyawat (memilih) penonton laki-laki untuk turut menari (ngibing) bersamanya. Bagian tersebut dinamakan paibing-ibingan. Ditilik dari penampilannya yang berpasangan, sepintas tari Joged dapat disejajarkan dengan Dansa di Eropa atau Tango dan Salsa di Amerika Latin.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Joged Bumbung&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_F_EwfX9Y2EU/TKqulzmjNNI/AAAAAAAACv4/PgpTtmiNe6o/s1600/joged_01.JPG&quot; style=&quot;color: #e1771e; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524419857453626578&quot; src=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_F_EwfX9Y2EU/TKqulzmjNNI/AAAAAAAACv4/PgpTtmiNe6o/s320/joged_01.JPG&quot; style=&quot;background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: #ffe9d6; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-color: rgb(246, 203, 166); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-color: rgb(246, 203, 166); border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-color: rgb(246, 203, 166); border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 1px; border-top-color: rgb(246, 203, 166); border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 121px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: 0pt; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px; width: 161px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Jenis ini adalah yang paling populer di Bali.

Tarian ini muncul pada tahun 1946 di Bali Utara lalu menyebar hampir ke semua desa di Bali.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Ketika acara televisi semakin marak dengan program hiburan, kepopuleran tari Joged pun merosot. Apalagi saat hiburan musik pop Bali semakin menyuat, banyak kelompok Joged Bumbung berguguran karena tak memiliki kesempatan berpentas. Dalam kondisi seperti itu ada kelompok Joged yang mengambil jalan mudah untuk merebut kembali pamornya yakni dengan menampilkan goyangan erotik saat menari. Namun, cara kontroversial itu tak bertahan lama. Masyarakat menghujatnya sebagai joged porno. Sementara, di panggung-panggung musik pop, grup-grup&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;sexy dancer&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;tampil hampir setiap pekan terutama di kawasan Denpasar dan Kuta dengan penampilan yang lebih vulgar dan lebih erotis.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Kini Joged Bumbung kembali ke gaya pementasannya semula yang tak terlalu vulgar. Untuk bertahan hidup, mereka pentas secara berkala di hotel-hotel di Kawasan Sanur, Kuta, Nusa Dua dan Ubud.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Joged Pingitan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Joged ini diduga muncul di Bali sekitar tahun 1884. Semula merupakan tarian hiburan bagi raja, dan konon penari-penarinya adalah para selir.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Dinamakan Joged Pingitan karena di dalam pementasan tarian ini ada hal-hal&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;pingit&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;(tabu) yaitu&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;pengibing&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(penari laki-laki) hanya diperbolehkan menari mengimbangi gerakan penari Joged.

Tari Joged Gebyog ini menggambarkan ibu-ibu rumah tangga yang menumbuk padi dengan riang-gembira. Masing-masing penari membawa sebatang bambu yang menggambarkan sebagai alu untuk menumbuk padi. Bambu-bambu tersebut diketukkn pada lesung kayu sehingga menghasilkan irama ritmis dan indah untuk mengiringi tarian Joged yang kemudian melibatkan penonton (laki-laki) untuk menari berpasangan dengannya (&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;ngibing&lt;/span&gt;).&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Saat ini sangat terbatas grup tari yang bisa mementaskan Joged Gebyog ini.

Danau terbesar di Asia Tenggara itu menyimpan gambaran ”kotor”, ”penuh keramba”, hingga ”hutan yang sudah gundul”. Seorang guru SMA mengatakan, pelayanan warga kepada wisatawan di Parapat tidak bagus. Orang membeli mangga bisa kena tipu. Untunglah seorang kawan berkata, ”Danau Toba itu luas, kita masuk dari sisi lain.” Kata-kata itu menguatkan niat kami, apalagi ditambah kenangan tentang idola masa kecil, Julius Sitanggang, yang suaranya masih terngiang-ngiang di telinga: Danau Toba… oh Danau Toba… danau indah dan permai….&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #484848; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #484848; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #484848; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Berangkat hari Minggu pagi, dari Medan kami menuju Sidikalang, Kabupaten Dairi, untuk bertemu beberapa teman. Setelah itu menuju Tele, salah satu sudut terbaik untuk melihat Danau Toba. Di Sidikalang, kami mendapat informasi keberadaan danau di atas Danau Toba, danau di Pulau Samosir. Danau Sidihoni namanya. Sebuah imaji yang menjadi cita-cita perjalanan ini.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #484848; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #484848; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #484848; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;Perjalanan kami lanjutkan setelah sempat bimbang melihat beberapa truk mengangkut durian Sidikalang yang tersohor itu.

Sebuah menara pandang berdiri di sudutnya. Di sisi kiri tampak Gunung Pusuk Buhit, gunung mitologi Batak, yang diselimuti kabut dan awan. Di sisi kanan beberapa air terjun dari tebing Danau Toba mengalir. Di depan menara, Danau Toba terbentang.

Denpasar&amp;nbsp; is the capital of Bali. While the name of its international airport is Ngurah Rai.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another means to reach the island is by ferry from Banyuwangi, located at the most eastern tip of East Java.

Although the road system in the heavily populated areas is quite reasonable (condition wise) in comparison to other developing countries, it can be heavily congested at peak periods.

Cruises to the surrounding islands can be taken from here as well as submarine dives to watch the tropical underwater life from within safe compartments. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; hspace=&quot;7&quot; src=&quot;http://203.211.140.227/public/media/images/upload/bali%205.jpg&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; height: 175px; margin-top: 0px; width: 255px;&quot; vspace=&quot;4&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Most well known among Bali’s beaches is Kuta beach, the best spot to watch dramatic sunsets. Further back along this stretch are an array of hotels, - from five stars to simple home stay -&amp;nbsp; restaurants and shops and cafes, while in the evenings the area throbs to the beat of disco music.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Or for a quieter evening enjoy the beach at Jimbaran, a popular spot to eat fresh barbecued seafood in the evenings, while watching from a distance the lights of planes landing and taking off from Bali’s Ngurah Rai airport. Located here are some of Bali’s best hotels like the Four Seasons and the Bali Intercontinental hotel. Jimbaran is also renowned for the Barong trance dance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Further west of Kuta are Legian and Seminyak. On the other side of the peninsula is the more sedate Sanur Beach, which is also dotted with hotels and restaurants, or visit Nusa Dua, where more private beaches front super de-luxe hotels.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;padding-left: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Surfing and Diving in Bali&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;A good start for surfers is Kuta beach.&amp;nbsp; But the best waves in Bali are at Uluwatu, at the southern tip of Bali, which is the site for international competitions. Here are the long, and perfectly formed hollow-barreled reef-breaks at 3 unique lefts, while at Nusa Dua and Sanur 3 complementary rights can be found. The time to surf is during April through September when winds are predominantly east-southeast. .&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Surfers also love the waves at Nusa Lembongan near Nusa Penida, sister islands due south east of Bali facing the Indian Ocean. These islands are a 45 minutes boat trip from Nusa Dua or from Sanur. Here the waves are known as Playground Surf Break, Shipwreck Surf Break, Ceningan Reef Surf Break to Lacerating Surf Break.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;For thrilling dives Bali offers excellent underwater challenges, with a range of options to suit beginners, while others should only be attempted by advanced divers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;At Nusa Penida, there are strong currents as this strait separates Bali from Lombok. At Nusa Penida’s south western coast are the Manta Point and the Malibu point where divers can swim with Travally, big rays and even sharks.&amp;nbsp; At Blue Corner find Moia Moia fish.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;At Bali‘s most eastern end is Padang Bay and Cemeluk, better known as Amed Beach for great dives, where you can find cardinal fish, black snappers and damsel fish.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;While along Bali’s north-western coast in the Bali Barat National Park, the best dive spots are at Menjangan with its reef flat, anchor wreck, eel garden and caves to explore. Nearby and still in the Bali Barat Park is Pemutaran island.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;For detailed information on Diving in Bali, click on Promotion Materials, Indonesia Diver’s Paradise:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;padding-left: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rafting, Cycling and Eco-tours&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Bali offers first class adrenaline pumping white water rafting down the spectacular Ayung River by Ubud. Here you can also go bungy-jumping from a cliff down to almost touch the river.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;If you enjoy cycling, Ubud and its surrounding is a wonderful town to bike around, as found by Elizabeth Gilbert, written in her bestselling novel “Eat, Pray, Love”. There are also good cycling paths at Uluwatu in the south. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Mountain climbers may want to climb up Gunung Agung. Begin your ascent from behind the temple or through the village of Sebudi. However, make sure to ask permission first from the temple authorities, as Balinese religion prescribes that no one may stand higher than the sacred temple especially when ceremonies are being held. The tough climb takes 6 to 8 hours, and&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;you are recommended to start out early in the morning, and be led by an experienced guide.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;padding-left: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bali Barat National Park&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;For serious trekking, head for the Bali Barat National Park at the western part of the island.&amp;nbsp; This is a large park covering 76,312 hectares in the districts of Jembrana and Buleleng. Entrance at the Jembrana side is at Melaya off the Denpasar-Gilimanuk highway. The Park offers pristine tropical nature, and is the last home of the most endangered Bali starling with only some one hundred remaining. These are very pretty white birds, with black wing tips and a brilliant blue streak around their eyes. Here is also the endangered wild Javan buffalo or banteng, with only 30 to 40 left living deep in the forest. Other animals are the rusa deer, the mouse deer, leopards, civets, macaques and a number of species of monkeys.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Visitors to Bali Barat must first obtain a permit available free of charge at Cekik, at Labuhan Lalang or at the Forestry Ministry office at Renon, Denpasar. Although shelters are available, trekkers must bring their own bedding, mosquito protection, food, water and utensils. There are simple hotels at Labuhan Lalang or at Gilimanuk and Negara.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;padding-left: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Benoa Mangrove Tour&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another interesting eco-tour is a trip through the Mangrove forests via elevated wooden boardwalks. The forests are located near Benoa Harbour at Suwung Kau, some 21 km. south of Denpasar.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The Mangrove Information Center, opened in 2003, is dedicated to the study and preservation of the region&#39;s coastal mangroves. Covering an area of about 200 hectares there are nursery plots occupying 7,700 square-meters, wooden boardwalk trails for observation and exploration huts for resting and meditation and floating decks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mangroves play a central role in the ocean’s life cycle and food chain since they serve as key breeding areas for an entire range of sea creatures that are fundamental to the Ocean&#39;s food chain. And in case of a tsunami, mangroves serve as life-saving buffers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These mangrove forests are best visited in the early morning or in the afternoon, the best times to watch the many species of birds that make the mangroves their habitat.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;padding-left: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cultural Performances&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;In Bali, dance and dramas are an inseparable part of daily temple devotion and celebrations, and many are held sacred. Each village has a different date of festivities, and a visitor may therefore, accidentally watch dance performances that are not staged for tourists.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;However, Bali villages do offer cultural performances catering to tourists. The Barong dance is staged mornings in the village of Batubulan. This is the eternal story of the fight between good and evil.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The Kecak dance is staged most dramatically in the open air by Pura Tanah Lot with as backdrop, the sun slowly lowering in the sea over the horizon beyond this beautiful temple. The Kecak dance tells the story of Ramayana wherein prince Rama’s wife, Sita, is abducted by the ogre Rahwana. In the forest Rama sees a golden deer and he chases it, but not before drawing a circle around Sita, warning her not to step out of it to stay safe. Rahwana lures Sita out of the circle and she is abducte&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;To save her, prince Rama is helped by the white monkey god Hanoman. For its rhythm and music the kecak dance relies entirely on the human chorus of a hundred men representing Hanoman’s monkey army sitting around in a circle forming the dance arena. As the sun goes down and darkness sets in, the arena is dramatically lit by flickering bamboo torches.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The village of Peliatan is famed for its graceful Legong Keraton – the palace court dance -&amp;nbsp; and superb flowing gamelan orchestral music.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Other fascinating dances are the Baris – the dance of the warriors, and the Mask Dance – this is a one man performance expressing different dramatic characters and human emotions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;padding-left: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shopping&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Bali is an island that produces great artists and artisans, where creativity exudes from every village. Painters, woodcarvers and dancers are experts, with artistic traditions handed down&amp;nbsp; from generation to generation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Your best buy in Bali, therefore, will be paintings. For best paintings visit at leisure the galleries at Ubud, and admire artists at work, before you decide which painting you like best. Most Balinese paintings go best with a Bali carved wooden frame.&amp;nbsp; For fine woodcarvings, go to the village of Mas, where are the master woodcarvers. If you are looking for gold or silver jewelry, head to the village of Celuk.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;But if you are thinking of bringing home souvenirs for friends and relatives, your best bet is the souvenir market at Sukowati, where you may be overwhelmed by choice.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;For casual and chic summer wear the place to browse is Kuta, which has a large variety of boutiques and shops, selling everything from bright T-shirts, surf- wear, flip-flops to creative trinkets.&lt;br /&gt;If you wish to buy dried food stuffs, Bali coffee is most aromatic. You may also want to buy aromatherapy essential oils to sprinkle your bath with.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;padding-left: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-top: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spa and Wellness&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Bali today has become the leader of Spas in South East Asia. Almost all de-luxe hotels offer unique top class Spa facilities where guests enjoy luxurious treatment and pampering, for which Indonesia is so justly famous.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Here you will be spoilt with aromatherapy massages, herbal wraps and scrubs with essential oils, foot reflexology, detoxification, from highly respected traditional treatments once only enjoyed by princesses in the ancient courts, to modern technology methods. Two spa resorts in Bali offer thalassotherapy, based on the restorative powers of the sea rich in miner and oligo elements that are massaged in and absorbed into the bloodstream to restore the balance in the body.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A number of spas are set amidst breathtaking views of green hillsides and winding rivers or jut out to sea where the lapping of the waves of the Indian Ocean provides peace and rest.&amp;nbsp; Each spa has its own unique feature. Most incorporate salon treatment for facials, cream bath, manicures and pedicures, everything to make you feel refreshed and come out feeling completely different person.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A weekend at Bagus Jati provides the opportunity to enjoy delicious, healthy food, lots of activities and pampering in a tropical forest. Here the Indonesian herbal treatment or “Jamu” restores the body, mind and spirit, cleansing the body from all toxins. Regular Yoga exercises complete the course. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;type_content&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; cursor: pointer; text-align: right;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;&quot; name=&quot;stay&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #004466; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4 class=&quot;space&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 16px; margin-top: 15px;&quot;&gt;To Stay&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;left&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;210&quot; hspace=&quot;7&quot; src=&quot;http://203.211.140.227/public/media/images/upload/bali%206(1).jpg&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-top: 0px;&quot; vspace=&quot;4&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; /&gt;Many beautiful resorts offer fine lodgings. Most of the starred hotels are located near the beach. Otherwise, they usually have their own private spots at certain beaches. You can find them easily at popular spots like Kuta or Sanur.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;If you&#39;re in a serene highland like Ubud, forget starred hotels. You&#39;re there to embrace the atmosphere. Just pick one of the small lodgings lining up the streets. And even the smallest one&#39;s ready to make you feel welcome.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;During the 2007 Ubud Readers and Writers Festival, a man in a wheelchair checked in at a small inn on Monkey Forest. He had some difficulties in navigating through the stairs to his bungalow. He then left for the Festival. When he returned at night, the owner had already paved an ascending lane to his bungalow. That&#39;s a typical Balinese hospitality.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;When you&#39;ve already picked a certain destination in Bali, just check out our Travel Directory.

Bali is a few of the regions in Indonesia whose majority of its people are non Muslims, thus babi guling or roasted suckling pig is a specialty, as is bebek betutu, smoked stuffed duck wrapped in bamboo leaves.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 1.2em; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;In Jimbaran area, for instance, you can sample seafood dishes while sitting on the beach.

Karena air itu ditempatkan di sebuah guci (poci), dan berkhasiat mendatangkan berkat, masyarakat menyebut lokasi pemberian air itu dengan nama Guci. Tapi karena air pemberian wali itu sangat terbatas, pada malam Jumat Kliwon, salah seorang sunan menancapkan tongkat saktinya ke tanah. Atas izin Tuhan, mengalirlah air panas tanpa belerang yang penuh rahmat ini. Nah, Sampai saat ini, setiap malam Jumat Kliwon, banyak orang datang dan mandi di tempat pemandian air panas ini untuk mendapat berkah.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Apa yang anda bayangkan begitu teringat nama Tegal?

Buat yang sedikit malu-malu kucing, boleh pake kaca mata gelap, asal jangan lirak-lirik saja.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Ada 13 pancuran umum dan 10 air terjun alam. Tinggal pilih, semuanya baru keluar dari sumber mata air yg sama. Guci berada 40 km di selatan kota Tegal. Ambil jurusan ke selatan menuju Slawi, terus aja ke selatan lewat Lebaksiu, ke arah Purwokerto. Lebaksiu itu kota kecamatan kecil dimana sebagian besar penduduknya migran pedagang martabak di kota2 besar dari Sabang sampai Marauke, termasuk semua yg ada di Bontang. Jadi kalau beli martabak biar dikasih murah, tebak aja penjualnya, mas kulo saking Tegggalll, bapake Lebaksiu-ne pundi ? …..setelah itu ada penujuk jalan yg menunjukkan tanda arah Guci, belok kiri lewat Bumi Jawa, desa Tuwel dan akhirnya mentok diatas di ketinggian 1,050 meter dpl.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;left&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;183&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/guci2.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;250&quot; /&gt;Guci sudah komersial, jadi anda bisa mendapatkan banyak pilihan dari melati sampai bintang empat. Ada sarana rekreasi ikutan spt menunggang kuda dan hiking. Dari yang sekedar menikmati keindahan alam, memperbaiki kulit, ataupun yang sedang mencari pesugihan. Suasana pegunungan dan keramaian yang ada mirip peristirahatan di Puncak Pass Cianjur. Sayur2an segar dari kebun di lereng2 gunung banyak dijajakan, dan biasa dibawa sebaga buah tangan.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Guci tempat yang cocok untuk liburan keluarga.

Koleksi satwa yang dimiliki saat itu hanya sekitar 250-an ekor yang terdiri dari 100 jenis yang berbeda. Sepuluh tahun kemudian, Oktober 1995, koleksi satwa di Taman Safari telah mencapai 2.500 ekor yang terdiri dari 200 jenis. Dimana 50% nya adalah satwa kelahiran Taman Safari, selebihnya merupakan satwa titipan dari berbagai instansi yang terkait, seperti PHPA (Perlindungan Hutan dan Pelestarian Alam), penyerahan dari masyarakat sekitar, atau sengaja didatangkan dari kebun binatang luar negeri dengan program pertukaran satwa.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;left&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;194&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/safari2.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;256&quot; /&gt;Satwa-satwa yang ada di Taman Safari umumnya merupakan satwa yang dilindungi baik dari Indonesia maupun yang didatangkan dari lima benua. Sedang ada beberapa ekor, keadaannya sangat mengkhawatirkan, sehingga perlu campur tangan manusia dalam meningkatkan jumlah populasinya melalui program penangkaran.Taman Safari - Bogor juga memiliki air terjun didalamnya. Untuk mengunjunginya harus dilakukan dengan jalan kaki (+/- 500m), mengingat belum adanya jalan yang bisa dilalui oleh kendaraan bermotor hingga ketempat lokasi. Tidak hanya rekreasi alam yang terdapat di Taman Safari. Ada banyak sarana rekreasi umum yang bisa dinikmati bersama keluarga.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;194&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/safari3.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;256&quot; /&gt;Seperti halnya kebun binatang lainnya, Taman Safari mempunyai beberapa fungsi. Selain sebagai lokasi rekreasi juga aktif didalam membantu usaha perlindungan dan pelestarian populasi jenis satwa yang terancam punah karena kehilangan habitat. Selain itu meningkatkan ilmu pengetahuan dengan melakukan berbagai penelitian untuk mendukung pelestarian satwa, serta melakukan kampanye, pendidikan dan penyuluhan mengenai konservasi.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Taman Safari dibuka setiap hari dari jam 09.00 s/d 17.00 wib, dengan harga tiket dewasa Rp.20.000, anak-anak (di bawah 5 tahun) Rp.15.000, tiket bus Rp.10.000, mobil Rp.5.000.

Peta sederhana tanpa skala yang ada pada pamflet tersebut menggambarkan bahwa lokasinya terletak diantara Gunung Batu dan Gunung Geulis. Segera saja sesampai dirumah saya membuka peta bakosurtanal skala 1:25000 untuk mencari kedua gunung tersebut dan mencatat semua track perjalanan yang mungkin membantu mencapai tujuan, dan memindahkannya ke perangkat GPS. Setelah berembuk dengan seorang teman akhirnya diputuskan untuk berangkat hari minggu pukul 5 pagi.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;194&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/bojongkoneng1.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;150&quot; /&gt;Perjalanan menuju lokasi dimulai dengan melajukan kendaran kearah perumahan bukit sentul, untuk kemudian berbelok melintasi perumahan bukit pelangi dan menuju desa bojongkoneng. Minimnya informasi akan letak sebenarnya dari air terjun tersebut menyebabkan beberapa kali harus bertanya kepada penduduk sekitar. Dan ternyata benar, asumsi awal yang telah dibuat akan lokasi tujuan ternyata berbeda cukup jauh dilapangan, akibatnya track yang sudah disiapkan bisa dibilang tidak berguna lagi&amp;nbsp;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/mambots/editors/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/sad_smile.gif&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Tentunya acara bertanya arah jalan menuju lokasi menjadi rutinitas yang sering mewarnai perjalanan kali ini. Terlebih setelah bentuk jalan yang sebelumnya berupa aspal mulus berubah menjadi jalan makadam(berbatuan) dengan lebar yang sempit, menambah keraguan akan benar-tidaknya jalan yang telah ditempuh. Bila berpapasan dengan kendaraan dari arah yang berlawanan, maka terpaksa harus mencari badan jalan yang cukup untuk dilewati dua kendaraan. Tak jarang halaman pekarangan rumah penduduk setempat, terpaksa digunakan untuk parkir sejenak, menunggu kendaraan lain selesai melintasinya dari arah yang berlawanan. Untunglah pada akhirnya seorang pemuda yang ditanyai, menawarkan diri untuk menjadi pemandu menuju lokasi air terjun.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Rute perjalananpun mulai berubah, karena jalan yang ditempuh sudah tidak bisa lagi dilalui kendaraan bermotor. Setelah memarkirkan mobil disalah satu pekarangan rumah penduduk, perjalanan dimulai dengan melintasi jalan setapak diantara kebun singkong, beralih ke kebun pisang, melintasi sungai, dan pematang sawah. Ade, nama penunjuk jalan kami, tiba-tiba menunjukkan jarinya ke suatu arah, dan saat kami memalingkan muka kearah yang dimaksud, tampaklah sebuah air terjun yang sedang melimpahkan air dengan sangat derasnya. Meskipun jarak yang hendak dituju masih cukup jauh dari tempat dimana kami berdiri, namun air terjun tersebut nampak cukup jelas terlihat, suatu bukti bahwa air terjun yang hendak kami tuju ini tentunya memiliki ukuran yang besar.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;left&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;193&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/bojongkoneng2.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;150&quot; /&gt;Kurang lebih 1,5 km total perjalanan yang mesti ditempuh dengan perjalanan kaki. Tiba dilokasi, kami dihadapkan dengan sebuah air terjun dengan ketinggian +/- 30 meter. Air melimpah dengan sangat derasnya meluncur dari atas menuju ke bawah dengan debit air yang cukup tinggi. Derasnya air yang jatuh ke permukaan kolam menimbulkan riak air dan hembusan angin yang cukup kencang. Hembusan angin yang membawa juga butiran air, praktis menyulitkan untuk proses pengambilan gambar/foto dikarenakan harus berulang-ulang menyeka lensa dari cipratan air. Disekeliling air terjun merupakan tebing terjal dengan dua bagian celah yang berada disamping kiri untuk mengalirnya air dan dibagian depan air terjun, digunakan pengunjung sebagai pintu masuk ke lokasi ini.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Penasaran dengan kesegaran air terjun yang ada dihadapan kami, ditambah lagi pakaian yang menempel dibadan telah menjadi lembab terkena hembusan angin bercampur partikel air, kamipun memutuskan untuk mandi di air terjun tersebut. Setelah melepas baju dan menyimpan peralatan kamera dibalik tebing agar aman dari cipratan air, kami berduapun segera membenamkan diri di kolam. Air yang bening dan dingin benar-benar memberikan kesegaran tersendiri. Uniknya, ketika berulangkali mencoba mendekati tempat jatuhnya air terjun yang berada di tengah kolam, selalu saja mengalami kegagalan. Hembusan angin dan riak air yang cukup keras selalu berhasil &quot;melemparkan&quot; kami kembali ketepian kolam. Setelah berjuang cukup keras dengan berjalan mundur agar muka tehindar dari curahan air terjun akhirnya berhasil juga mencapai bagian paling muka dari limpahan air terjun. Air mengalir dengan derasnya menimpa bagian punggung bagaikan ribuan palu kecil yang menghantam dan menimbulkan rasa nyeri. Tak tahan dengan rasa sakit di punggung dan kepala, kamipun berusaha menjauh/menghindar sebuah keputusan yang mengakibatkan terlemparnya kembali kami ketepian luar dari air terjun.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;121&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/bojongkoneng3.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;290&quot; /&gt;Setelah puas bermain air, dan badan mulai mengigil kedinginan, kamipun keluar dari kolam dan kembali memakai pakaian yang sudah basah-lembab. Sungguh menyenagkan sekali bermain air terjun dilokasi yang masih alami ini. Tidak adanya sampah menambah poin positif dan merupakan bukti bahwa jarang orang berkunjung kelokasi air terjun desa Bojongkoneng. Ade-pun menambahkan, terkadang di sisi tebing air terjun banyak dijumpai monyet, yang sayang sekali kami tidak menemukan barang seekorpun saat itu.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Penulis : Silhouette&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Fotografer : Silhouette&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Lokasi : Bojongkoneng, Sukaraja, Bogor&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Sumber :&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.navigasi.net/&quot; style=&quot;color: #f85703; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;navigasi.net&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/2469125526205555189/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/05/air-terjun-bojongkoneng.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/2469125526205555189'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/2469125526205555189'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/05/air-terjun-bojongkoneng.html' title='Air Terjun Bojongkoneng'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-2866650863978434032</id><published>2010-05-27T10:01:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2010-05-27T10:01:49.841+07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="wisata kuliner"/><title type='text'>Tips Praktis Wisata Kuliner</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #484848; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;left&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/kuli.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Mau Berwisata Kuliner?

Namanya juga wisata kuliner, tidak ada yang gratisan. Kecuali dapat undangan pembukaan restoran. Tolong diperhatikan, tempat makan yang bakal disambangi. Paling enak kalau sebelumnya sudah ada bayangan, berapa harga makanan di tempat tersebut. Kalau lokasinya kaki lima, siapkan modal yang mungkin tidak terlalu besar. Kecuali ulang tahun dan ntraktir kawan-kawan yang jumlahnya sekampung.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Kalau makannya di restoran besar, ya jangan bawa modal untuk makan kaki lima.

Antrean orang yang akan naik kapal cepat ke berbagai pulau di gugusan Pulau Seribu sudah mulai bersiap-siap naik ke perahu masing-masing. Pak Nur ( 41 ), Kapten kapal cepat yang akan menuju P.Bidadari juga terlihat berdiri diatas kapal untuk melihat kesiapan kapal yang akan dikemudikannya.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Jika ingin pergi ke berbagai gugusan Kepulauan Seribu gampang saja, datang saja ke Pantai Marina Ancol. Di situ anda tinggal beli tiket kapal, kemudian memilih tujuan, menunggu sebentar dan berangkat. Salah satu service yang disediakan adalah berlayar menuju Pulau Bidadari, salah satu gugusan Kepulauan Seribu yang terdekat dengan Jakarta. Rute Marina – P.Bidadari tersedia tiap hari, dimana keberangkatan kapal jam sembilan pagi dan kepulangannya jam tiga sore.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;155&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/bidadari1.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;205&quot; /&gt;Kalau hari libur atau Sabtu &amp;amp; Minggu kapal tetap berangkat jam sembilan pagi, namun jam kepulangan menjadi dua kali, jam dua dan jam empat sore. Harga tiket juga berbeda, hari biasa adalah Rp 160,000 ,- per orang sedangkan hari libur adalah Rp 200,000 / orang. Selain tiket pulang dan pergi, harga tiket tersebut termasuk welcome drink dan makan siang di restoran P.Bidadari.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Setelah menunggu beberapa saat di Dermaga 17 Pantai Marina Ancol, petugas kapal mempersilahkan penumpang untuk masuk. Sesaat kemudian kapal yang kami tumpangi berputar, maju pelan-pelan dan mulai membelah lautan. Makin lama kecepatan kapal makin betambah, hingga para penumpang yang berada di dalamnya terasa diayun-ayun dan digoyang-goyang. Walaupun begitu para penumang tetap berasa aman di dalamnya, karena kapalnya lumayan besar dan tertutup, sehingga cipratan air tidak masuk ke dalam. Ruangan kapal juga relatif bersih dan nyaman. Susunan tempat duduknya juga asyik, kursi busa dengan posisi tiga kursi samping kanan dan tiga kursi samping kiri yang dipisahkan oleh jalan di tengahnya. Tak begitu lama, kurang lebih hanya dua puluh menit di atas kapal, rimbunan dedaunan Pulau Bidadari sudah kelihatan, dan merapalah kapal yang kami tumpangi di dermaga kayu pulau tersebut.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;left&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;155&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/bidadari2.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;205&quot; /&gt;Patung Sang Tanduk Tujuh Belas yang sedang mengangkat kakinya menyambut kedatangan para pengunjung. Bahkan sambutan tersebut disertai dengan bunyi puisi yang tertulis di bawah patung yang berbunyi sebagai berikut,”Singa Beraung dihutan-hutan, Hiu berteriak, Aku raja dilautan, Dan rajawali, Bebas terbang tinggi di awan – Disini Sang Tanduk Tujuh Belas, Akrab berbisik, Kepada para wisatawan, Saya hanyalah penjaga kepulauan – Cinta persahabatan, Cinta perdamaian, Cinta ketenangan, Dan cinta keindahan”. Merenung sejenak setelah membaca pusisi tersebut, welcome drink pun siap sedia diatas meja yang terletak di samping meja resepsionis. Di pintu masuk terdapat beberapa petugas yang sudah siap sedia melayani segala keperluan para pengunjung. Pemandu wisata juga tersedia bagi para pengunjung yang ingin penjelasan detail tentang P.Bidadari.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Karena ingin lebih bebas menikmati asrinya pulau, kami pun memutuskan untuk mengelilingi Pulau Bidadari tanpa menggunakan pemandu. Toh sudah tersedia juga brosur yang lumayan lengkap yang berisi tentang pulau ini. Mengitari pulau berlawanan arah dengan jarum jam, kami melintasi bungalow-bungalow yang tidak begitu besar, namun terlihat teduh dan asri. Karena hampir di setiap sudut daratan pulau ini tumbuh pohon Keben dan beberapa pohon lain yang terlihat sangat subur. Terus berjalan ke dalam kita akan menemukan Benteng yng sudah rusak, namun masih terlihat sisa-sisa keperkasaannya. Bangunan yang berfungsi sebagai menara pengawas dan benteng di Pulau Bidadari ini berbentuk bundar dengan garis tengah 23 meter da tebal dinding 2,50 meter. Pada dinding ini terdapat deretan jendela-jendela besar dan kecil. Pada bagian dalam bangunan ini terdapat tujuh ruangan lantai dasar yang dipisah-pisahkan dengan skat tembok bata.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Salah satu ruangan yag tertutup berfungsi sebagai tempat penyimpanan amunisi. Pada bagian tengahnya terdapat sebuah dinding lingkaran lagi yang berfungsi sebagai tempat penyimpanan air bersih untuk keperluan minum dan memasak bagi para tentara yang sedang berjaga. Sebelum dilakukan penggalian arkeologi, bangunan menara pengawas di Pulau Bidadari ini tidak terlihat wujudnya sebab seluruh permukaan bangunan tertimbun oleh puing-puing dan ditumbuhi oleh pohon-pohon besar serta ilalang. Namu setelah dilakukan penelitian dan penggalian oleh Dinas Museum dan Sejarah DKI Jakarta, akhirnya dapat diperlihatkan wujud dari sisa-sisa bangunan menara tersebut. Menara pengawas ini bertingkat dua, hal ini dibuktikan dengan adanya lubang-lubang penyangga balok lantai. Ruangan-ruangan pada lantai dua ada tujuh buah. Kemungkinan ruangan dilantai dua ini berfungsi sebagai ruangan tidur sekaligus tempat pengintaian.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;155&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/bidadari3.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;205&quot; /&gt;Bentuk bangunan menara pengawas ini di Eropa lebih dikenal dengan sebutan Menara Martello. Yang pertama kali diperkenalkan oleh Perancis, atau tepatnya d pulau Corsica pada abad 18. Ketika terjadi pemberontakan di pulau tersebut pada tahun 1794, mereka meminta bantuan Inggris untuk membantu menyerang. Namun untuk menaklukan Corsica, Inggris kewalahan merebut benteng menara di Martello Point yang menjaga pintu masuk teluk Fiorenzo. Benteng itu cukup ampuh dalam pertahanan, sehingga sekembalinya dari perang, Inggris mendirikan bangunan yang sama di negaranya. Kemudian bangunan ini tidak saja ditiru oleh Inggris melainkan juga Belanda. Tak heran jika Belanda mendirikan pula menara Martello di negeri jajahan seperti Indonesia sebagai bagian dari sistim pertahanannya. Dan salah satunya didirikan di Pulau Bidadari yang bekasnya masih bisa kita lihat sampai sekarang. Disamping itu ada benteng yang setipe dengan Martello yang terletak disebelah utara Pulau Bidadari. Bisa ditempuh dengan menggunakan perahu kurang lebih sepuluh menit.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;left&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;155&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;http://liburan.info/images/stories/bidadari4.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;205&quot; /&gt;Di sebelah utara benteng merupakan sisi pantai utara sebagai batas Pulau Bidadari bagian utara. Pantainya terlihat lebih bersih dan lebih bening dibanding dengan pantai sisi selatan. Hal ini dikarenakan pantai utara tidak berhadapan langsung teluk Jakarta yang sudah banyak tercemar. Beberapa tempat duduk kecil yang menghadap pantai tersedia disisi pantai. Duduk-duduk dikursi tersebut sambil melihat pemandangan laut biru, diterpa angin laut yang sepoi-sepoi merupakan hal yang sangat menyenangkan. Setelah puas mengelilingi pulau ini, senang, segar, capai dan rasa lapar bercampur jadi satu. Maka dari itu bersiaplah untuk menikmati hidangan makanan yang disediakan oleh restaurant dengan menukarkan voucher yang kita dapatkan ketika membeli tiket kapal. Menu yang tidak mewah, namun juga tidak bisa dikatakan sederhana, nasi dan lauk pauk lengkap serta hidangan penutup betul-betul menjadi pengobat rasa lapar yang ada.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Karena restoran yang langsung berhadapan dengan pantai, asyik sekali makan sambil menatap laut, mendengar ombak yang mendayu-dayu. Tak terasa waktu berlalu begitu cepat ketika berada di pulau ini, kapal penjemput sudah siap di dermaga, satu per satu penumpang naik dan kami kembali ke dermaga 17.&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Penulis : AMGD&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Lokasi : Pulau Untung Jawa, Kepulauan Seribu, Kota Jakarta Utara&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Fotografer : AMGD&lt;br style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;&quot; /&gt;Sumber :&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.navigasi.net/&quot; style=&quot;color: #f85703; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;Navigasi.Net&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/7001995069394222695/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/05/pulau-bidadari.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/7001995069394222695'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/7001995069394222695'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/05/pulau-bidadari.html' title='Pulau Bidadari'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-5673027161666353643</id><published>2010-03-27T15:06:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2010-03-27T15:06:35.341+07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="diving"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="mentawai"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="surfing"/><title type='text'>Mentawai Island: the Ultimate Diversity of the Hidden Paradise</title><content type='html'>&lt;div id=&quot;blowup_content&quot;&gt;  The Place and the People&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Located in the middle of Indian Ocean, 150 km and takes 9 hours trip from Padang, West Sumatra-Mentawai glowing with all the nature spirits and make it an extraordinary escaping spot from a hectic life.

Bahkan liburan dapat menjadi pemasok energi baru dari kejenuhan.&amp;nbsp;  Tak hanya dibutuhkan orang dewasa, anak pun butuh sensasi liburan yang menurut  pendapat beberapa ahli mampu menyegarkan kembali pikiran dan tubuhnya.&amp;nbsp;  Sayangnya, seringkali orangta tidak memahaminya.&amp;nbsp; Tak jarang orangtua tetap  membebani anak dengan beberapa kewajiban, seperti mengerjakan PR dan lainnya.&amp;nbsp;  Hal ini yang membuat anak kurang dapat menikmati waktu libur  mereka.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selain menyegarkan pikiran dan tubuh, liburan merupakan  kesempatan bagi orang tua untuk menguatkan hubungan orangtua dan anak.&amp;nbsp; Dengan  membiarkan anak seharian mengisi hari liburnya di depan TV, playstation, ataupun  komputer, berarti menutup kesempatan anak untuk memperkaya pengalaman dan  memperluas wawasan anak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Berikut alternatif bagi orang tua untuk mengajak  anaknya berlibur yang diklarifikasikan oleh Psikolog, Jacinta F Rini dalam  artikel Mengelola Liburan Anak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Liburan Ilmiah&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Membawa anak  pergi ke planetarium Taman Ismail Marzuki, Museum Geologi di Kota Bogor, Kebun  Raya Bogor, Museum Geologi di Bandung, Boscha di Lembang, dll. Bisa juga  mengajak anak pergi ke pasar untuk memberi pengalaman langsung proses jual beli  di pasar.&amp;nbsp; Dengan begitu liburan kali ini bisa menjadi ajang menimba  ilmu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Liburan Kreatif dan Inovatif&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mengajak anak ke tempat art  &amp;amp; craft center untuk belajar teknik-teknik seni yang menghasilkan karya yang  membuat mereka bangga dapat mengarahkan dan membangkitkan kreativitas anak  dengan menstimulasi imajinasi mereka.&amp;nbsp; Mengikuti kelas memasak bisa juga menjadi  alternatif liburan kreatif dan inovatif.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Liburan Empati dan  Sosial&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mengunjungi panti asuhan atau panti jompo merupakan kegiatan  liburan yang relatif murah dan mudah, namun memiliki nilai sosial tinggi.&amp;nbsp;  Kesempatan bagi orangtua untuk membuka pengertian anak dan menanamkan nilai  moral dengan mengasihi sesama.&amp;nbsp; Dengan memberi motivasi pada anak bahwa hidup  itu penuh tantangan yang harus bisa dihadapi dengan belajar, bekerja, berdoa dan  berhati bersih.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Liburan Petualangan&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Merencanakan bersama anak  pergi ke perkebunan teh, kebun raya, kebun binatang, sawah, pemancingan,  outbound, air terjun atau ke peternakan menjadi liburan yang penuh dengan  petualangan.&amp;nbsp; Selain itu anak akan belajar menghargai apa yang dihasilkan oleh  alam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/4313849413469173543/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/01/liburan-sehat-ceria-dan-cerdas.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/4313849413469173543'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/4313849413469173543'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/01/liburan-sehat-ceria-dan-cerdas.html' title='Liburan Sehat, Ceria dan Cerdas'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-5343931651098176370</id><published>2010-01-01T13:20:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2010-01-01T13:20:26.771+07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ecology of Komodo</title><content type='html'>The Komodo dragon prefers hot and dry places, and typically lives in dry open grassland, savanna, and tropical forest at low elevations. As an ectotherm, it is most active in the day, although it exhibits some nocturnal activity. Komodo dragons are largely solitary, coming together only to breed and eat. They are capable of running rapidly in brief sprints up to 20 kilometres per hour (12.4 mph), diving up to 4.5 metres (15 ft), and climbing trees proficiently when young through use of their strong claws.[11] To catch prey that is out of reach, the Komodo dragon may stand on its hind legs and use its tail as a support.[17] As the Komodo dragon matures, its claws are used primarily as weapons, as its great size makes climbing impractical.[12]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For shelter, the Komodo dragon digs holes that can measure from 1–3 metres (3–10 ft) wide with its powerful forelimbs and claws.[18] Because of its large size and habit of sleeping in these burrows, it is able to conserve body heat throughout the night and minimize its basking period the morning after.[19] The Komodo dragon typically hunts in the afternoon, but stays in the shade during the hottest part of the day.[20] These special resting places, usually located on ridges with a cool sea breeze, are marked with droppings and are cleared of vegetation. They also serve as a strategic location from which to ambush deer.[21]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Diet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2TqtKxFoI/AAAAAAAAATg/uklOkXvoDww/s1600-h/180px-Komodo_Dragon_Eating_Rinca.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2TqtKxFoI/AAAAAAAAATg/uklOkXvoDww/s1600/180px-Komodo_Dragon_Eating_Rinca.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Komodo dragons on RincaKomodo dragons are carnivores. Although they eat mostly carrion,[4] they will also ambush live prey with a stealthy approach. When suitable prey arrives near a dragon&#39;s ambush site, it will suddenly charge at the animal and go for the underside or the throat.[12] It is able to locate its prey using its keen sense of smell, which can locate a dead or dying animal from a range of up to 9.5 kilometers (6 miles).[12] Komodo dragons have also been observed knocking down large pigs and deer with their strong tail.[22]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Komodo dragons eat by tearing large chunks of flesh and swallowing them whole while holding the carcass down with their forelegs. For smaller prey up to the size of a goat, their loosely articulated jaws, flexible skull, and expandable stomach allow it to swallow its prey whole. The vegetable contents of the stomach and intestines are typically avoided.[21] Copious amounts of red saliva that the Komodo dragons produce help to lubricate the food, but swallowing is still a long process (15–20 minutes to swallow a goat). Komodo dragons may attempt to speed up the process by ramming the carcass against a tree to force it down its throat, sometimes ramming so forcefully that the tree is knocked down.[21] To prevent itself from suffocating while swallowing, it breathes using a small tube under the tongue that connects to the lungs.[12] After eating up to 80 percent of its body weight in one meal,[6] it drags itself to a sunny location to speed digestion, as the food could rot and poison the dragon if left undigested for too long. Because of their slow metabolism, large dragons can survive on as little as 12 meals a year.[12] After digestion, the Komodo dragon regurgitates a mass of horns, hair, and teeth known as the gastric pellet, which is covered in malodorous mucus. After regurgitating the gastric pellet, it rubs its face in the dirt or on bushes to get rid of the mucus, suggesting that it, like humans, does not relish the scent of its own excretions.[12]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A young Komodo dragon photographed on Rinca feeding on a water buffalo carcassThe largest animals generally eat first, while the smaller ones follow a hierarchy. The largest male asserts his dominance and the smaller males show their submission by use of body language and rumbling hisses. Dragons of equal size may resort to &quot;wrestling&quot;. Losers usually retreat though they have been known to be killed and eaten by victors.[12]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Komodo excrement is mostly white as the stomach is not capable of digesting the calcium found in the bones of the animals they eat.The Komodo dragon&#39;s diet is wide-ranging, and includes invertebrates, other reptiles (including smaller Komodo dragons), birds, bird eggs, small mammals, monkeys, wild boar, goats, deer, horses, and water buffalo.[23] Young Komodos will eat insects, eggs, geckos, and small mammals.[4] Occasionally they consume humans and human corpses, digging up bodies from shallow graves.[17] This habit of raiding graves caused the villagers of Komodo to move their graves from sandy to clay ground and pile rocks on top of them to deter the lizards.[21] The Komodo dragon may have evolved to feed on the extinct dwarf elephant Stegodon that once lived on Flores, according to evolutionary biologist Jared Diamond.[24] The Komodo dragon has also been observed intentionally startling a pregnant deer in the hopes of a miscarriage whose remains they can eat, a technique that has also been observed in large African predators.[24]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because the Komodo dragon does not have a diaphragm, it cannot suck water when drinking, nor can it lap water with its tongue. Instead, it drinks by taking a mouthful of water, lifting its head, and letting the water run down its throat.[12] When it comes to hunting the lizard is very picky, but will eat any type of carrion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Saliva&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2Tyrv8lwI/AAAAAAAAATk/ozIKSfuA4ds/s1600-h/180px-KomodoDragon.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2Tyrv8lwI/AAAAAAAAATk/ozIKSfuA4ds/s1600/180px-KomodoDragon.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;A sleeping Komodo dragon. Its large, curved claws are used in fighting and eating.Auffenberg described the Komodo dragon as having septic pathogens in its saliva, specifically the bacteria: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus sp., Providencia sp., Proteus morgani and P. mirabilis.[25] He noted that while these pathogens can be found in the mouths of wild Komodo dragons, they disappear from the mouths of captive animals, due to a cleaner diet.[25][26] This was verified by taking mucous samples from the external gum surface of the upper jaw of two freshly captured individuals.[25][26] Saliva samples were analyzed by researchers at the University of Texas who found 57 different strains of bacteria growing in the mouths of three wild Komodo dragons including Pasteurella multocida.[9][27] The rapid growth of this bacteria was noted by Fredeking: &quot;Normally it takes about three days for a sample of P. multocida to cover a petri dish; ours took eight hours. We were very taken aback by how virulent these strains were&quot;.[28] This study supported the observation that wounds inflicted by the Komodo dragon are often associated with sepsis and subsequent infections in prey animals.[27]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In late 2005, researchers at the University of Melbourne speculated that the perentie (Varanus giganteus), other species of monitor, and agamids may be somewhat venomous. The team believes that the immediate effects of bites from these lizards were caused by mild envenomation. Bites on human digits by a lace monitor (V. varius), a Komodo dragon, and a spotted tree monitor (V. scalaris) all produced similar effects: rapid swelling, localized disruption of blood clotting, and shooting pain up to the elbow, with some symptoms lasting for several hours.[29]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2009, the same researchers published further evidence demonstrating that Komodo dragons possess a venomous bite. MRI scans of a preserved skull showed the presence of two venom glands in the lower jaw. They extracted one of these glands from the head of a terminally ill specimen in the Singapore Zoological Gardens, and found that it secreted a venom containing several different toxic proteins. The known functions of these proteins include inhibition of blood clotting, lowering of blood pressure, muscle paralysis, and the induction of hypothermia, leading to shock and loss of consciousness in envenomated prey.[30][31] As a result of the discovery, the previous theory that bacteria were responsible for the deaths of komodo victims was disputed.[32]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kurt Schwenk, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Connecticut finds the discovery of these glands intriguing, but considers most of the evidence for venom in the study to be &quot;meaningless, irrelevant, incorrect or falsely misleading&quot;. Even if the lizards have venomlike proteins in their mouths, Schwenk argues, they may be using them for a different function, and he doubts that venom is necessary to explain the effect of a Komodo dragon bite, arguing that shock and blood loss are the primary factors.[33][34]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reproduction&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mating occurs between May and August, with the eggs laid in September.[9] During this period, males fight over females and territory by grappling with one another upon their hind legs with the loser eventually being pinned to the ground. These males may vomit or defecate when preparing for the fight.[17] The winner of the fight will then flick his long tongue at the female to gain information about her receptivity.[6] Females are antagonistic and resist with their claws and teeth during the early phases of courtship. Therefore, the male must fully restrain the female during coitus to avoid being hurt. Other courtship displays include males rubbing their chins on the female, hard scratches to the back, and licking.[35] Copulation occurs when the male inserts one of his hemipenes into the female&#39;s cloaca.[15] Komodo dragons may be monogamous and form &quot;pair bonds&quot;, a rare behavior for lizards.[17]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2T6y2gMKI/AAAAAAAAATo/WgUpTvznZqI/s1600-h/250px-Varanus_komodoensis.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2T6y2gMKI/AAAAAAAAATo/WgUpTvznZqI/s1600/250px-Varanus_komodoensis.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;A Komodo dragon with its long tail and claws fully visibleThe female lays her eggs in burrows cut into the side of a hill or in the abandoned nesting mounds of the Orange-footed Scrubfowl (a moundbuilder or megapode), with a preference for the abandoned mounds.[36] Clutches contain an average of 20 eggs which have an incubation period of 7–8 months.[17] The female lies on the eggs to incubate and protect them until they hatch around April, at the end of the rainy season when insects are plentiful. Hatching is an exhausting effort for the pups, who break out of their eggshells with an egg tooth that falls off soon after. After cutting out the hatchlings may lie in their eggshells for hours before starting to dig out of the nest. They are born quite defenseless, and many are eaten by predators.[12]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Young Komodo dragons spend much of their first few years in trees, where they are relatively safe from predators, including cannibalistic adults, who make juvenile dragons 10% of their diet.[17] According to David Attenborough, the habit of cannibalism may be advantageous in sustaining the large size of adults, as medium-sized prey on the islands is rare.[22] When the young must approach a kill, they roll around in fecal matter and rest in the intestines of eviscerated animals to deter these hungry adults.[17] Komodo dragons take about three to five years to mature, and may live for up to 50 years.[18]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Parthenogenesis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Main article: &lt;em&gt;Parthenogenesis&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2UASUxLcI/AAAAAAAAATs/q1fBCnWsqvQ/s1600-h/180px-Parthkomodo.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2UASUxLcI/AAAAAAAAATs/q1fBCnWsqvQ/s1600/180px-Parthkomodo.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Komodo dragon at London Zoo named Sungai laid a clutch of eggs in late 2005 after being separated from male company for more than two years. Scientists initially assumed that she had been able to store sperm from her earlier encounter with a male, an adaptation known as superfecundation.[37] On December 20, 2006, it was reported that Flora, a captive Komodo dragon living in the Chester Zoo in England, was the second known Komodo dragon to have laid unfertilized eggs: she laid 11 eggs, and 7 of them hatched, all of them male.[38] Scientists at Liverpool University in England performed genetic tests on three eggs that collapsed after being moved to an incubator, and verified that Flora had never been in physical contact with a male dragon. After Flora&#39;s eggs&#39; condition had been discovered, testing showed that Sungai&#39;s eggs were also produced without outside fertilization.[39]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A parthenogenetic baby Komodo dragon, Chester Zoo, EnglandKomodo dragons have the ZW chromosomal sex-determination system, as opposed to the mammalian XY system. Male progeny prove that Flora&#39;s unfertilized eggs were haploid (n) and doubled their chromosomes later to become diploid (2n) (by being fertilized by a polar body, or by chromosome duplication without cell division), rather than by her laying diploid eggs by one of the meiosis reduction-divisions in her ovaries failing). When a female Komodo dragon (with ZW sex chromosomes) reproduces in this manner, she provides her progeny with only one chromosome from each of her pairs of chromosomes, including only one of her two sex chromosomes. This single set of chromosomes is duplicated in the egg, which develops parthenogenetically. Eggs receiving a Z chromosome become ZZ (male); those receiving a W chromosome become WW and fail to develop.[40][41]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been hypothesized that this reproductive adaptation allows a single female to enter an isolated ecological niche (such as an island) and by parthenogenesis produce male offspring, thereby establishing a sexually reproducing population (via reproduction with her offspring that can result in both male and female young).[40] Despite the advantages of such an adaptation, zoos are cautioned that parthenogenesis may be detrimental to genetic diversity.[42]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On January 31, 2008, the Sedgwick County Zoo in Wichita, Kansas became the first zoo in the Americas to document parthenogenesis in Komodo dragons. The zoo has two adult female Komodo dragons, one of which laid about 17 eggs on May 19–20, 2007. Only two eggs were incubated and hatched due to space issues; the first hatched on January 31, 2008 while the second hatched on February 1. Both hatchlings were males.[43][44]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;source : wikipedia.org</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/5343931651098176370/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/01/ecology-of-komodo.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/5343931651098176370'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/5343931651098176370'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2010/01/ecology-of-komodo.html' title='Ecology of Komodo'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2TqtKxFoI/AAAAAAAAATg/uklOkXvoDww/s72-c/180px-Komodo_Dragon_Eating_Rinca.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-9154834072113159588</id><published>2010-01-01T13:14:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2010-01-01T13:14:17.487+07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Komodo dragon</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2SSSoT-JI/AAAAAAAAATc/fpzK8J-6-MA/s1600-h/140px-KomodoDragonRinca1.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/Sz2SSSoT-JI/AAAAAAAAATc/fpzK8J-6-MA/s1600/140px-KomodoDragonRinca1.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Safari-Incredible-Creatures-Komodo-Dragon/dp/B0012VTG2Y?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;tag=ninafakoe-20&amp;amp;link_code=btl&amp;amp;camp=213689&amp;amp;creative=392969&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Komodo dragon &lt;/a&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=ninafakoe-20&amp;amp;l=btl&amp;amp;camp=213689&amp;amp;creative=392969&amp;amp;o=1&amp;amp;a=B0012VTG2Y&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0px;&quot; width=&quot;1&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; (Varanus komodoensis) is a species of lizard that inhabits the islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores, and Gili Motang in Indonesia.[3] A member of the monitor lizard family (Varanidae), it is the largest living species of lizard, growing to an average length of 2 to 3 metres (6.6 to 9.8 ft) and weighing around 70 kilograms (150 lb). Their unusual size is attributed to island gigantism, since there are no other carnivorous animals to fill the niche on the islands where they live; their large size is also explained by the Komodo dragon&#39;s low metabolic rate.[4][5] As a result of their size, these lizards dominate the ecosystems in which they live.[6] Although Komodo dragons eat mostly carrion, they will also hunt and ambush prey including invertebrates, birds, and mammals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mating begins between May and August, and the eggs are laid in September. About twenty eggs are deposited in abandoned megapode nests and incubated for seven to eight months, hatching in April, when insects are most plentiful. Young Komodo dragons are vulnerable and therefore dwell in trees, safe from predators and cannibalistic adults. They take around three to five years to mature, and may live as long as fifty years. They are among the rare vertebrates capable of parthenogenesis, in which females may lay viable eggs if males are absent.[7]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;Komodo dragons &lt;iframe align=&quot;left&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; src=&quot;http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=ninafakoe-20&amp;amp;o=1&amp;amp;p=8&amp;amp;l=bpl&amp;amp;asins=B002DWJN2E&amp;amp;fc1=000000&amp;amp;IS2=1&amp;amp;lt1=_blank&amp;amp;m=amazon&amp;amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;amp;bc1=000000&amp;amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;amp;f=ifr&quot; style=&quot;align: left; height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/span&gt;were first recorded by Western scientists in 1910.

On your first visit to a batik store or factory you will undoubtedly experience an overwhelming stimulation of the senses - due to the many colors, patterns and the actual smell of batik. Only through repeated visits and a bit of study will the types of designs and their origins become apparent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The word batik &lt;iframe align=&quot;left&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; src=&quot;http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=ninafakoe-20&amp;amp;o=1&amp;amp;p=8&amp;amp;l=bpl&amp;amp;asins=B002ZJQT68&amp;amp;fc1=000000&amp;amp;IS2=1&amp;amp;lt1=_blank&amp;amp;m=amazon&amp;amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;amp;bc1=000000&amp;amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;amp;f=ifr&quot; style=&quot;align: left; height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;is thought to be derived from the word &#39;ambatik&#39; which translated means &#39;a cloth with little dots&#39;. The suffix &#39;tik&#39; means little dot, drop, point or to make dots. Batik may also originate from the Javanese word &#39;tritik&#39; which describes a resist process for dying where the patterns are reserved on the textiles by tying and sewing areas prior to dying, similar to tie dye techniques. Another Javanese phase for the mystical experience of making batik is “mbatik manah” which means “drawing a batik design on the heart”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Brief History&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although experts disagree as to the precise origins of batik, samples of dye resistance patterns on cloth can be traced back 1,500 years ago to Egypt and the Middle East. Samples have also been found in Turkey, India, China, Japan and West Africa from past centuries. Although in these countries people were using the technique of dye resisting decoration, within the textile realm, none have developed batik to its present day art form as the highly developed intricate batik found on the island of Java in Indonesia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although there is mention of &#39;fabrics highly decorated&#39; in Dutch transcripts from the 17th century, most scholars believe that the intricate Javanese batik designs would only have been possible after the importation of finely woven imported cloth, which was first imported to Indonesia from India around the 1800s and afterwards from Europe beginning in 1815. Textile patterns can be seen on stone statues that are carved on the walls of ancient Javanese temples such as Prambanan (AD 800), however there is no conclusive evidence that the cloth is batik. It could possibly be a pattern that was produced with weaving techniques and not dying. What is clear is that in the 19th century batik became highly developed and was well ingrained in &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Varieties-Javanese-Religion-Anthropological-Anthropology/dp/0521624738?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;tag=ninafakoe-20&amp;amp;link_code=btl&amp;amp;camp=213689&amp;amp;creative=392969&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Javanese cultural&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=ninafakoe-20&amp;amp;l=btl&amp;amp;camp=213689&amp;amp;creative=392969&amp;amp;o=1&amp;amp;a=0521624738&quot; style=&quot;border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;&quot; width=&quot;1&quot; /&gt; life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some experts feel that batik was originally reserved as an art form for Javanese royalty. Certainly it&#39;s royal nature was clear as certain patterns were reserved to be worn only by royalty from the Sultan&#39;s palace. Princesses and noble women may have provided the inspiration for the highly refined design sense evident in traditional patterns. It is highly unlikely though that they would be involved in any more than the first wax application. Most likely, the messy work of dyeing and subsequent waxings was left to court artisans who would work under their supervision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Javanese royalty were known to be great patrons of the arts and provided the support necessary to develop many art forms, such as silver ornamentation, wayang kulit (leather puppets) and gamelan orchestras. In some cases the art forms overlap. The Javanese dalang (puppeteer) not only was responsible for the wayang puppets but was also an important source of batik patterns. Wayang puppets are usually made of goat skin, which is then perforated and painted to create the illusion of clothing on the puppet. Used puppets were often sold to eager ladies who used the puppets as guides for their batik patterns. They would blow charcoal through the holes that define the patterns of clothing on the puppets, in order to copy the intricate designs onto the cloth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other scholars disagree that batik was only reserved as an art form for royalty, as they also feel its use was prevalent with the rakyat, the people. It was regarded an important part of a young ladies accomplishment that she be capable of handling a canting (the pen-like instrument used to apply wax to the cloth) with a reasonable amount of skill, certainly as important as cookery and other housewifery arts to Central Javanese women.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selection and Preparation of the Cloth for Batik&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Natural materials such as cotton or silk are used for the cloth, so that it can absorb the wax that is applied in the dye resisting process. The fabrics must be of a high thread count (densely woven). It is important that cloth of high quality have this high thread count so that the intricate design qualities of batik can be maintained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cloth that is used for batik is washed and boiled in water many times prior to the application of wax so that all traces of starches, lime, chalk and other sizing materials are removed. Prior to the implementation of modern day techniques, the cloth would have been pounded with a wooden mallet or ironed to make it smooth and supple so it could best receive the wax design. With the finer machine-made cotton available today, the pounding or ironing processes can be omitted. Normally men did this step in the batik process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Strict industry standards differentiate the different qualities of the cloth used today, which include Primissima (the best) and Prima. The cloth quality is often written on the edge of the design. A lesser quality cloth which is often used in Blaco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Batik Design Tools&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although the art form of batik is very intricate, the tools that are used are still very simple. The canting, believed to be a purely Javanese invention, is a small thin wall spouted copper container (sometimes called a wax pen) that is connected to a short bamboo handle. Normally it is approximately 11 cm. in length. The copper container is filled with melted wax and the artisan then uses the canting to draw the design on the cloth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Canting have different sizes of spouts (numbered to correspond to the size) to achieve varied design effects. The spout can vary from 1 mm in diameter for very fine detailed work to wider spouts used to fill in large design areas. Dots and parallel lines may be drawn with canting that have up to 9 spouts. Sometimes a wad of cotton is fastened over the mouth of the canting or attached to a stick that acts as a brush to fill in very large areas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For close-up pictures of canting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wajan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The wajan is the container that holds the melted wax. It looks like a small wok. Normally it is made of iron or earthenware. The wajan is placed on a small brick charcoal stove or a spirit burner called an &#39;anglo&#39;. The wax is kept in a melted state while the artisan is applying the wax to the cloth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wax&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Different kinds and qualities of wax are used in batik. Common waxes used for batik consist of a mixture of beeswax, used for its malleability, and paraffin, used for its friability. Resins can be added to increase adhesiveness and animal fats create greater liquidity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best waxes are from the Indonesian islands of Timor, Sumbawa and Sumatra; three types of petroleum-based paraffin (white, yellow and black) are used. The amounts mixed are measured in grams and vary according to the design. Wax recipes can be very closely guarded secrets. Varying colors of wax make it possible to disguise different parts of the pattern through the various dying stages. Larger areas of the pattern are filled in with wax that is cheaper quality and the higher quality wax is used on the more intricately detailed sections of the design.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The wax must be kept at the proper temperature. A wax that is too cool will clog the spout of the canting. A wax that is too hot will flow too quickly and be uncontrollable. The artisan will often blow into the spout of the canting before applying wax to the cloth in order to clear the canting of any obstructions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cap&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Creating batik is a very time consuming craft. To meet growing demands and make the fabric more affordable to the masses, in the mid-19th century the . cap. (copper stamp - pronounced chop) was developed. This invention enabled a higher volume of batik production compared to the traditional method which entailed the tedious application of wax by hand with a canting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each cap is a copper block that makes up a design unit. Cap are made of 1.5 cm wide copper stripes that are bent into the shape of the design. Smaller pieces of wire are used for the dots. When complete, the pattern of copper strips is attached to the handle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cap must be precisely made. This is especially true if the pattern is to be stamped on both sides of the fabric. It is imperative that both sides of the cap are identical so that pattern will be consistent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes cap are welded between two grids like pieces of copper that will make a base for the top and the bottom. The block is cut in half at the center so the pattern on each half is identical. Cap vary in size and shape depending on the pattern they are needed for. It is seldom that a cap will exceed 24 cm in diameter, as this would make the handling too difficult.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Men usually handle the application of wax using cap. A piece of cloth that involves a complicated design could require as many as ten sets of cap. The usage of cap, as opposed to canting, to apply the wax has reduced the amount of time to make a cloth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, batik quality is defined by cap or tulis, the second meaning hand-drawn designs which use a canting, or kombinasi, a combination of the two techniques.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dyes&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Traditional colors for Central Javanese batik were made from natural ingredients and consisted primarily of beige, blue, brown and black.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The oldest color that was used in traditional batik making was blue. The color was made from the leaves of the Indigo plant. The leaves were mixed with molasses sugar and lime and left to stand overnight. Sometimes sap from the Tinggi tree was added to act as a fixing agent. Lighter blue was achieved by leaving the cloth in the dye bath for short periods of time. For darker colors, the cloth would be left in the dye bath for days and may have been submerged up to 8 - 10 times a day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In traditional batik, the second color applied was a brown color called soga. The color could range from light yellow to a dark brown. The dye came from the bark of the Soga tree. Another color that was traditionally used was a dark red color called mengkuda. This dye was created from the leaves of the Morinda Citrifolia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The final hue depended on how long the cloth was soaked in the dye bath and how often it was dipped. Skilled artisans can create many variations of these traditional colors. Aside from blue, green would be achieved by mixing blue with yellow; purple was obtained by mixing blue and red. The soga brown color mixed with indigo would produce a dark blue-black color.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Design Process&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The outline of the pattern is blocked out onto the cloth, traditionally with charcoal or graphite. Traditional batik designs utilize patterns handed down over the generations. It is very seldom that an artisan is so skilled that he can work from memory and would not need to draw an outline of the pattern before applying the wax. Often designs are traced from stencils or patterns called pola. Another method of tracing a pattern onto a cloth is by laying the cloth on a glass table that is illuminated from below which casts a shadow of the pattern onto the cloth. The shadow is then traced with a pencil. In large batik factories today, men usually are in charge of drawing the patterns onto the cloth. Click here to see the step-by-step process of making batik.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Waxing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once the design is drawn out onto the cloth it is then ready to be waxed. Wax is applied to the cloth over the areas of the design that the artisan wishes to remain the original color of the cloth. Normally this is white or cream.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Female workers sit on a low stool or on a mat to apply the wax with a canting. The fabric that they are working on is draped over light bamboo frames called gawangan to allow the freshly applied wax to cool and harden. The wax is heated in the wajan until it is of the desired consistency. The artisan then dips her canting into the wax to fill the bowl of the canting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Artisans use the wax to retrace the pencil outline on the fabric. A small drop cloth is kept on the woman. s lap to protect her from hot dripping wax. The stem of the canting is held with the right hand in a horizontal position to prevent any accidental spillage, which greatly reduces the value of the final cloth. The left hand is placed behind the fabric for support. The spout does not touch the fabric, but it held just above the area the artisan is working on. To ensure the pattern is well defined, batik is waxed on both sides. True tulis batik is reversible, as the pattern should be identical on both sides.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most experienced artisans normally do first waxings. Filling in of large areas may be entrusted to less experienced artisans. Mistakes are very difficult to correct. If wax is accidentally spilt on the cloth, the artisan will try to remove the unwanted wax by sponging it with hot water. Then a heated iron rod with a curved end is used to try and lift off the remaining wax. Spilled wax can never be completely removed so it is imperative that the artisans are very careful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the cap method is utilized, this procedure is normally done by men. The cap are dipped into melted wax. Just under the surface of the melted wax is a folded cloth approximately 30 centimeters square. When this cloth is saturated with wax it acts like a stamp pad. The cap is pressed into the fabric until the design side of the cap is coated with wax. The saturated cap is then stamped onto the fabric, leaving the design of the cap. This process is repeated until the entire cloth is covered. Often cap and canting methods are combined on the same piece of cloth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Better quality batik may be waxed utilizing canting in one part of Indonesia and then sent to another part of Indonesia where the cap part of the process is completed. On better quality cap fabric great care is taken to match the pattern exactly. Lower grade batik is characterized by overlapping lines or lightened colored lines indicating the cap was not applied correctly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dyeing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the initial wax has been applied, the fabric is ready for the first dye bath. Traditionally dying was done in earthenware tubs. Today most batik factories use large concrete vats. Above the vats are ropes with pulleys that the fabric is draped over after it has been dipped into the dye bath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The waxed fabric is immersed in the dye bath of the first color. The amount of time it is left in the bath determines the hue of the color; darker colors require longer periods or numerous immersions. The fabric is then put into a cold water bath to harden the wax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the desired color has been achieved and the fabric has dried, wax is reapplied over the areas that the artisan wishes to maintain the first dye color or another color at a later stage in the dying process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When an area that has been covered with wax previously needs to be exposed so that it can be dyed, the applied wax is scraped away with a small knife. The area is then sponged with hot water and resized with rice starch before it is re-immersed in the subsequent dye bath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If a marble effect is desired, the wax is intentionally cracked before being placed in the dye bath. The dye seeps into the tiny cracks that create the fine lines that are characteristic of batik. Traditionally, cracks were a sign of inferior cloth especially on indigo color batik. On brown batik, however, the marble effect was accepted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The number of colors in batik represents how many times it was immersed in the dye bath and how many times wax had to be applied and removed. A multicolored batik represents a lot more work that a single or two-color piece. Numerous dye processes are usually reflected in the price of the cloth. Nowadays, chemical dyes have pretty much replaced traditional dyes, so colors are endless and much more liberally used.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;link :&lt;br /&gt;http://www.expat.or.id/info/batik.html</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/2185761317866417357/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/10/batik-traditional-fabric-of-indonesia.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/2185761317866417357'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/2185761317866417357'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/10/batik-traditional-fabric-of-indonesia.html' title='Batik, Traditional Fabric of Indonesia'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-9011732487799053628</id><published>2009-10-03T08:04:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2009-10-03T08:04:33.302+07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Batik (Javanese pronunciation: [ˈbateʔ]; Indonesian pronunciation: [ˈbaːtik]; English: /ˈbætɪk/ or /bəˈtiːk/) is cloth which traditionally uses a manual wax-resist dyeing technique. Due to modern advances in the textile industry, the term has been extended to include fabrics which incorporate traditional batik patterns even if they are not produced using the wax-resist dyeing techniques. Silk batik is especially popular.[citation needed]&lt;br /&gt;Javanese traditional batik, especially from Yogyakarta and Surakarta, has special meanings rooted to the Javanese conceptualization of the universe. Traditional colours include indigo, dark brown, and white which represent the three major Hindu Gods (Brahmā, Visnu, and Śiva). This is related to the fact that natural dyes are only available in indigo and brown. Certain patterns can only be worn by nobility; traditionally, wider stripes or wavy lines of greater width indicated higher rank. Consequently, during Javanese ceremonies, one could determine the royal lineage of a person by the cloth he or she was wearing.&lt;br /&gt;Other regions of Indonesia have their own unique patterns which normally take themes from everyday lives, incorporating patterns such as flowers, nature, animals, folklore or people. The colours of pesisir batik, from the coastal cities of northern Java, is especially vibrant, and it absorbs influence from the Javanese, Arab, Chinese and Dutch culture. In the colonial times pesisir batik was a favorite of the Peranakan Chinese, Dutch and Eurasians.&lt;br /&gt;UNESCO designated Indonesian batik, as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity on 2nd October, 2009[1].&lt;br /&gt;Batik or fabrics with the traditional batik patterns are also found in several countries such as Malaysia, Japan, China, India, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Nigeria, Senegal, and Singapore. Malaysian batik often displays plants and flowers in basic patterns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;form :&lt;br /&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batik</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/9011732487799053628/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/10/batik-javanese-pronunciation-bate.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/9011732487799053628'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/9011732487799053628'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/10/batik-javanese-pronunciation-bate.html' title=''/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-2653618236012571337</id><published>2009-10-03T07:59:00.001+07:00</published><updated>2009-10-03T07:59:51.935+07:00</updated><title type='text'>BATIK&#39;s</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;344&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/4Xr5kkbdADA&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowFullScreen&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowScriptAccess&quot; value=&quot;always&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/4Xr5kkbdADA&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;true&quot; allowScriptAccess=&quot;always&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;344&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/2653618236012571337/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/10/batiks.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/2653618236012571337'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/2653618236012571337'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/10/batiks.html' title='BATIK&#39;s'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095932936724568723.post-583370709521917884</id><published>2009-08-10T19:37:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2009-08-10T19:37:22.411+07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="bunaken"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="sail bunaken"/><title type='text'>Bunaken, Manado - a heaven under the sea</title><content type='html'>Bunaken, Manado - a heaven under the sea&lt;br /&gt;Filed under Beach, Surf &amp; Dive, Indonesia Amazing Places, Manado Travel Guides&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bunaken is located at the north of the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia. It belongs administratively to the municipality of Manado. Bunaken is part of the Bunaken National Marine Park, which has some of the highest levels of marine biodiversity in the world. Scuba diving attracts many visitors to the island. The Bunaken National Marine Park was formally established in 1991 and is among the first of Indonesia’s growing system of marine parks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The park covers a total surface area of 890.65 km², 97% of which is overlain by sparkling clear, warm tropical water. The remaining 3% of the park is terrestrial, including the five islands of Bunaken, Manado Tua, Mantehage, Nain and Siladen. Although each of these islands has a special character, it is the aquatic ecosystem that attracts most naturalists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The waters of Bunaken National Marine Park are extremely deep (1566 m in Manado Bay), clear (up to 35-40 m visibility), refreshing in temperature (27 to 29 °C) Pick any of group of interest - corals, fish, echinoderms or sponges - and the number of families, genera or species is bound to be astonishingly high. For example, 7 of the 8 species of giant clams that occur in the world, occur in Bunaken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The park has around 70 genera of corals; compare this to a mere 10 in Hawaii. Although the exact number of fish species is unknown, it may be slightly higher than in the Philippines, where 2,500 species, or nearly 70% of all fish species known to the Indo-western Pacific, are found.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oceanic currents may explain, in part, why Bunaken National Marine Park is such a treasure trove of biodiversity. Northeasternly currents generally sweep through the park but abundant counter currents and gyros related to lunar cycles are believed to be a trap for free swimming larvae. This is particularly true on the south side of the crescent-shaped Bunaken Island, lying in the heart of the park.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A snorkler or diver in the vicinity of Lekuan or Fukui may spot over 33 species of butterfly fish and numerous types of groupers, damsels, wrasses and gobies. The gobies, smallish fish with bulging eyes and modified fins that allow them to attach to hard surfaces, are the most diverse but least known group of fish in the park.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Biologists believe that the abundance of hard corals is crucial in maintaining the high levels of diversity in the park. Hard corals are the architects of the reefs, without them, numerous marine organisms would be homeless and hungry. Many species of fish are closely associated with particular types of corals (folious, branching, massives, etc.) for shelter and egg-laying. Others, like the enormous Bumphead Parrotfish, Balbometopon muricatum, are “coralivores” and depend on hard corals for their sustenance. Bony mouth parts fused into an impressive “beak” allow these gregarious fish to crunch corals like roasted peanuts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View Larger Map</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/feeds/583370709521917884/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/08/bunaken-manado-heaven-under-sea.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/583370709521917884'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8095932936724568723/posts/default/583370709521917884'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theninaf-koe.blogspot.com/2009/08/bunaken-manado-heaven-under-sea.html' title='Bunaken, Manado - a heaven under the sea'/><author><name>nuro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04935691129823159286</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RlHS5pqWMg4/SAQ0E1tFprI/AAAAAAAAAAM/8YKRq42War8/S220/cats_eyes.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry></feed>
