in #tours7 years ago

Good #Afternoon Stemian, today I will try to share info about #Tourism in INDONESIA, Precisely in West Sumatera or Padang.

The following list has been made from some references :

1. Singkarak Lake

Lake Singkarak is the largest lake in West Sumatra, and the second largest on the island of Sumatra, after Lake Toba. The lake is approximately 107.8 km wide. We can relax for a moment on the outskirts of the lake with stunning scenery, Background hillside line along the edge of the lake increasingly add to the beauty of the lake. The air is fresh and the cool breeze greeted once we stopped at the edge of this singkarak Lake. Location Singkarak Lake is also quite strategic if you want to get around to some attractions in West Sumatra. The lake is located midway between Solok city and Padang Panjang city. With such a position if you want to go to Lake Singkarak, from Padang City, you have two route options through Solok city or Padang Panjang city.
Lake Singkarak is famous for its Bilih fish which is a species of fish that only lives in this lake only. This fish is very unique because it can not survive anywhere, even in an aquarium, except in Lake Singkarak.

2. Lake Maninjau

With a size of approximately 100 square meters with a maximum depth of 500 meters. Maninjau Lake has a five star resort located on the hilltop.

Great Teacher Religion "ULAMA" Buya Hamka, is one of the famous writers in Indonesia who was born in this village.

3. Lake Atas Bawah

Upper Lower Lake is located near the city of Alahan Panjang, Solok regency, West Sumatra, Lake Above and Lake bawah looks unique because it is located adjacent. The difference lies only in the height of the two lakes. Above Lake is at an altitude of 1531 mdpl, while the Lake At the Bottom is at an altitude of 1666 mdpl.
The lake that is usually first visited by visitors is Lake Under. Above Lake has water that can be spelled out not so deep for the size of the lake, which is 44 meters. In this lake, you can travel the water by boarding a rented boat. Unlike Upper Lake, in Under Lake visitors can not do water tours. This is because the water is about 800 m, but the scenery around the lake is very beautiful, nice to be immortalized with the camera. To reach this lake traveled from the city of Padang to the route Sitinjau Laut-Lubuk Selasih-Solok.

  • Note: mdpl (Meter From Sea Level) measurement *
