The beauty of this place would never make the tourist disappointed, and that peace who can't we found in town were further adds plus point of this one.

To achieve Lhok Mata Ie can be reached by boat or on foot can also to climb hill. Travel on the boat we had to rent a local fishing boat by spend money of 250 thousand rupiah, we will be delivered to the place and picked up again at a time when we have set. As for the walk we spent about 45 minutes to climb and down the hill to reached the place, during the trip we will be served by amazing natural views of like green of jungle and wide grasslands.

The Beauty Behind The Chicken Coop

For this time we chose to travel via foot-slog to reached Lhok Mata Ie, the first starting point we will find one of the chicken farms are located in the Ujung Pancu,. You definitely ask, what about our vehicles? don't worry, in one of the houses which are part of the chicken farm has a large yard, so we can park our vachiles at there. Free?

Although relatively small, but is very significant, especially for camping like we have used it for cooking as well as drinking water sources.
From the water resource, about 150 meters ahead, proceed to path down the hill to finally find a Lhok Mata Ie beach. There is a sense of peace when I first reached this location.

Welcome to the Paradise of Fisherman

Baiturrahim Mosque, Ulee Lheue

4/22/2013 |

You must have listened of of electronic media, print media, someone, or you hear directly from the victims concerned. A great disaster that start of a earthquake 9.2 Scala Richter was followed a huge sea wave has hit Aceh December 2004, forces of the nature that killed 170,000 lives from different territory. Huge waves as high as 9 meters of sea water that hit Aceh also destroyed most of the residents facilities or homes to the ground, it's no wonder that power can even raised a ship weighing 2,600 tons power generation as far as 5 km from the sea to the land.

But still all that happens by the wants of the Almighty, Allah SWT.

If Allah SWT wants its Destroyed .. thats will destroyed,
if Allah SWT wants its save.... then thats will be save ,

Well, this time I will try to tell you a thing unexpected of human mind above the disaster. Exactly on the 23 April 2013 I had the chance to visit a heritage website of the disaster, a building that still stands firmly even is only tens of meters from the beach. ....

-Baiturrahim Mosque, Ulee Lheue-

Mosque Baiturrahim is a silent witness a miracle of tsunami eight years ago. When the giant waves raging, mosque to with only tens meters from the sea, still standing in Ulee Lheu. While the building around that is flat on the ground. According of survivors, there were three waves of the tsunami hit Baiturrahim Mosque earthquake was a magnitude 9 on the Richter scale. Every wave always broke out when befall the mosque, and then roll crushed buildings around him.

This mosque is in fact not the only building that survivors of the tsunami, there are other buildings, one of which is located in lampu'uk. which is also a white mosque that survived the disaster would malignancy.

Baiturrahim Mosque

Lampu'uk Mosque

But this time I will only discuss about Baiturrahim Ulee Lheu mosque, as chance the recently building that I visited to publish it. The condition of the mosque which was formerly made of brick is broken simply about twenty percent of it, I wonder if this mosque became a symbol of the greatness of the Almighty, and really admire the people of Aceh.

Baiturrahim mosque the historic of the Sultan of Aceh in the 17th century. The mosque was once called the Jami 'Ulee Lheu In 1873 when the Dutch burned Baiturrahman mosque. all of people forced to perform Jum'ah Pray at mosque in Ulee Lheue, since that time renamed the mosque Baiturrahim. The mosque has been several renovations since it was built the first time in the 17th century. Until after the big event in 2004, this mosque get a lot of offers of assistance funds from the outside area, either from the the community or government officials.

But the help is not immediately accepted by the mosque committee, they reject offers of assistance when the condition is not given suitable with a desire the mosque committee. Like an offer from Al-Imdad NGO from southern Africa and the Sultan of Brunei Darussalam Hasanul Bolkiyah which will give assistance when old buildings its destroyed, whose bid was rejected on the results of the discussions the people with mosque committee. But unlike the Al-Imdad from South Africa which does not appear again up to now, the Sultan of Brunei provide help to build a mosque tower with Rp.3.000.000.000 funds, - (three billion dollars).

And until now the mosque was still standing with a additional tower at his right side , but for convenience this mosque still need some buildings, like the building of teaching to children is often called TPA. Previously said this mosque has 6 rooms to accommodate that learning activities, while for now the activities can only be do at the front of terrace mosque. although there is still a less building, or part of the building is under renovation, the mosque is generally functioning well....

4/18/2013 |

Ok Guys, I want a to tell you about one of large stadium at my city, Banda Aceh. This time I came to visit a football stadium at lhongraya. If I may be honest though already 12 years living in Banda Aceh, this is the first time I'came to this stadium, not because the location is far away or any other, but hmmm advised home kid who likes to laze around at home.

Not because of family matters or any other, but again because of the coursework. Maybe you could say without a college assignment, I would constantly throughout the day lazing at home .. : p

When I entered the main gate is felt atmosphere of the sport side of the road, there is a football training, running, long jump and arrows, began from children to adults participating in sports. they look so serious in practice, probably because either there will be a competence of late, was it always this way or did they look like when training.

Museum Aceh

3/12/2013 | Hal Banda Aceh, Photography class

okay guys, last post i was promise to tell you many stories of my journey. so then, today i want to tell you about a heritage area in Banda Aceh. This time i go to the museum aceh is to complete a school assignment that has been given earlier in the class, and we have made an appointment to get together at 3 o'clock here. weather conditions at the time its a little cloudy, visible from some dark clouds that slowly comes over.

Atmosphere in it looks a bit lonely. No one of tourists was in sight who come at that time, only a few of my friends who had first come from the specified time. But don't be surprised if it happens, because we made a deal to converge on the Monday, where everyone is busy doing their respective jobs.

When i entering the gate, i was immediately greeted by the bell Cakra Donya in the left side. Chakra Donya is a bell from iron crown made in China in 1409 AD, with height of 125 cm and width of 75 cm. The bell was a gift from the Chinese Empire which was taken by Admiral Ceng Ho to the Sultan of Aceh. Chakra means the shaft train, symbols of Wishnu, the horizon or the sun. While Donya mean the world. On the outside there is a Chakra Donya ornaments and symbols of Chinese characters and Arabic form. Chinese characters inscribed Sing Tong Fang Intention Juut Kat Yat tjo (Sultan Sing Fa has poured in 12 months of the year to 5). While the Arabic script can not be read anymore because it has been worn.

In front of Cakra Donya we will be found Rumoh Aceh there , a traditional Acehnese house said to be the first building in the museum. Rumoh Aceh was established during the reign of the Dutch East Indies, and was inaugurated by the Governor General for the Civil and Military Aceh HNA Swart on July 31, 1915. Actually, Rumoh Aceh is derived from Aceh pavilion placed in the arena Colonial Exhibition (De Koloniale Tentoonsteling) in Semarang on 13 August to 15 November 1914.

other than that, on the left side of Rumoh Aceh there have a nice building. A square building with a gable roof typical aceh four sides that continue jutting up into the face of the land. I didn't get time to wonder about this one building, but from the results of my observation ithis is a building used by the manager of the museum aceh.

still in the museum district of Aceh on the right side there are some old buildings dutch heritage, and the most interesting there are also a number of old weapons that had been used as Indonesia, especially Aceh gained independence from the Dutch.

So maybe this is all I can tell you for this time, and maybe my story is still a fraction of the many stories that exist in this aceh museum. if you are still not satisfied with the story, let's just go check to the museum Aceh. ^^
