Karimun Jawa, it’s a Paradise

risvank — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 02:36:57 +0000

Karimunjawa offers tours of the exotic sea. He has a beautiful underwater gardens and I am happy with the environment in karimunjawa still beautiful and has not been touched by many people, not like Bali which have been very busy and crowded. Thus, he is still regarded as worthy of ‘virgin’. The sea is still very clean, and the environment is very far from the bustle of development. Karimunjawa many communities rely on the livelihoods as fishermen.

For me, Karimun is a ‘hidden pearls’ Java. Just need a little polish so it will gleam, polish it is the development of infrastructure and good marketing. I would be very happy if karimunjawa could ultimately become one of the leading Indonesian tourism.

The trip to Karimun organized by Indonesia with its coordinator Mata Mas Ari Ocon and Mba. Our trip to Karimun travel by road using the bus. Our meeting point is in Terminal Rawamangun, and right at about 20:30 pm we depart from Terminal to the Port Rawamangun in Jepara Kartini. Total travel time between Port and Rawamangun Kartini is approximately 11 hours! indeed tiring and quite make the buttocks become numb, but with the beauty tours offered karimunjawa later, I have always believed that it was worth a gamble. From Port Kartini, then we crossed by ferry to karimunjawa for approximately 8 hours. Actually there is another pedestrian transportation modes that are faster, the speed boat from the port of Semarang, if climbing fast boat would only take between 2-3 hours. It’s just naturally a rather expensive cost.

In karimunjawa, we stayed at Wisma Pumice. Floating homestead is situated on the sea and not far from the mainland, probably only about 2 km. What makes the Floating House special is because he lies on the sea allows us to swim whenever we want. Stay out of the room and went straight into the sea nyebur. Then, in the House of floating a new electricity can be used when the night because the electricity supply can only be given from diesel-fueled generators. Sleeping at night was another interesting experience in Wisma cages because it’s so cold. Cold is not generated from the AC but because the sea breeze that always roaring loudly at night, so it is best we have to get ready for training pants or sarong if you want to stay at Wisma Pumice.

The next day after we arrived, we immediately visited both snorkeling in three places, namely Pulau Tanjung Gelam, Mejangan Island and Small Island Pines.

The island and Pulau Tanjung Gelam Mejangan offers a beautiful underwater garden. Sand so white here, and sea water was so clear until our feet could be seen with great clarity when swimming at the shore, though there is no trash on the island and it was really like in nirvana (paradise) because the scenery around makes the heart so calm. Me and my friends behave like small children who get the toys when her birthday gift, we were screaming with excitement, praising each other and the places we visit our endlessly self-perpetuating in that place into jeprat snap photos endless.

Small Island Pines offers a nice place to be a shooting location. Even Small Island Pines is probably the best spot to took some photos than any other island. There we took a picture with a variety of poses, from the style of jumping, somersaults style, style Jayus, until we try any style. I myself spent about 15-20 minutes to lie down and try to enjoy nature is what I admire this. In my heart I say I’m grateful to enjoy this beauty with new friends is fun-fun, too.

Like the Island of Cape and Island Mejangan Gelam, sand on the island of Pines, so white and water so clear without the trash though, so we clean up does not ‘bear’ to dispose of plastic waste our snack food packaging. When the time late in the afternoon we also have to be ‘willing’ to return to the House of pumice with a heavy heart.

On the way back to the House of pumice, we are taking the time to drop by a shark farm located not too far from the House of Floating. Sharks tame-tame here, enabling us to swim in the pool. The only pool which is forbidden to use swimming pool Baracuda Baracuda is considering predatory fish and can not be tamed. Funny how it felt when swimming in the middle of a pack of sharks without getting ‘interference’ of any kind. Sharks are the ignorant melalang transversely in front of me as if this is “lu lu cave cave.”

When on the way home, I felt my heart left in karimunjawa, “I left my heart at karimunjawa”, I always remember the trip to Karimun is my best trip so far. Until now, no, I never tired to stop telling my friends how wonderful karimunjawa. There has been no single place that offers the same beauty offered karimunjawa. Someday my friends and promised to return to karimunjawa and try to surf other islands besides Gelam Cape Island, Isle of Pines Mejangan and Small Island.

Cyprus, Holiday Island in Mediterranian

Cyprus is an island in the eastern Mediterranean Sea Sea, 113 km south of Turkey and 120 km west of the Syrian coast. The metal “copper” in English stems from the Latin work Cyprus. Large deposits of copper are chanced on the island. Geographically, Cyprus is in Western Asia. It was in 1960 that Cyprus acquired independency from the United Kingdom. Still, U.K., Greece and Turkey continued determined rights to interfere in Cyprus’ internal affairs. The Republic of Cyprus is the authorities of the island which is internationally accredited and controls the southern two-thirds of the island. Almost all foreign governments agnise the sovereignty of the Republic of Cyprus over all of Cyprus.

Turkish Cypriots, together with Turkey, contradict the commonwealths rule across Republic of Cyprus and call it the “Greek Authority of Southern Cyprus”. They control the boreal part of the island followed by a military invasion by Turkey in the year 1974. The Turkish Cypriot economy faces troubles like arrangement foreign funding because it’s entirely recognized by Turkey. Foreign firms are as well groping to clothe there. It’s one-fifth of the population and one-third of per capita GDP of the south. The economy remains heavily dependent on agriculture and government services, which collectively employments half of the work force.

To cover for the economy’s helplessness, Turkey allows channelize and indirect aid to tourism, education, industry etc. The Cypriots are among the most auspicious people in the Mediterranean Sea domain. The island elevates its image as a “bridge” between East and West, its educated English-speaking population, moderate local costs, good airline connections and telecommunications. Greek is predominantly spoken in the south and Turkish northwards. Historically, Greek (its Cypriot dialect) was spoken by nearly 82% of the population of Cyprus. Along with Greek and Turkish, English is as well widely applied in Cyprus.

The climate of Cyprus is abstemious with gingery and dry summers, and cool and rainy winters. Music in Cyprus has a variety of classical, folk and popular genres. Folk music in Cyprus is similar to the folk music of Greece and includes dances like sousta, syrtos, zeimbekikos, dachas, and the kartsilamdhes. As Cyprus was an important outpost of Christianity and European civilization during the Crusades, a variety of styles, including music from Armenia, France, Greece and Arabs, got merged with the island’s own acculturation. Cyprus has held its magnanimousness through the years of turmoil and remains a great holidaymaker destination in hurt of political upheavals. It’s a unequalled berth to visit with a distinct history and culture.

I first heard the name of France, who crossed from most people is the Eiffel tower, kingdom, castle, arts and many other things associated with wealth will sejarahya.
Eight years I lived there as one of the guides at the castle of Blois. But eight years was not enough time to be able to uncover the wealth of the castle there.

This summer we decided to get to know the middle and northern France to our children. We intentionally chose to central and northern regions because the regions we live in the heat of southern France have started to make this body was burnt tourists and too dense to make dizzy head. So we decided to slightly cool the air to cool area of the body before the welcome arrival of Ramadan, the energy content of reckoning for the month of fasting later.

Val de Loire became one of our objectives. Why? Because in this region is not only one or two relics of the imperial castles of France, but so rich in cultural heritage, castle, royal parks, rivers and forests. Property owned this area make a note as a Unesco world heritage area.

We only stayed two nights at the Val de Loire, time is very quick indeed to be able to uncover the wealth of this region. Because approximately 50 imperial relics of the castle is worth a visit, the royal parks, forests with thousands of unusual plants we see everyday.

A friend who had eight years of living in this area said, “Eight years I lived there, even working as a guide at the castle of Blois. But eight years was not enough to be able to uncover the wealth of the castle there.”

So you can imagine we are only staying two nights! Of the dozens of castles three castles became our choice. Château (castle) de Chambord, Château de Blois and the Château de Cheverny.

Château de Chambord

Château de Chambord be the first choice we came because we knew is a guide there. But because we came with our children then we do visit selected by our acquaintances, visits to education for children.

Guide that provides a visit to our party wearing the costume of a woman who cooks the 16th century. How to apply a very interesting introduction for children. I was surprised to see how kids are so eager to answer or ask each time asking the guide or explain something to them.

Château Chambord castle listed in UNESCO as world heritage. This castle is one of the great works of Leonard de Vinci. Has a double staircase which is an open secret in the century. The castle is composed of 440 rooms and is surrounded by 5500 hectares of parks and also a small river that flows between them. Show imperial era are often held here for the public and often free. The duration of the visit about 1 hour 30 minutes and there is a translator tool in 13 languages. Indonesian certainly not included …

Since that day we had just arrived from our trip, then a castle already made us very tired. So we choose to spend our evenings with friends at his home enjoying the grilled lamb leg cooked with vegetables a la french is ratatouille. New midnight we returned to our inn, the little Bazile since we started eating, she had dreamed so tired.

Château de Blois

Day two at the Val de Loire, we decided to visit the Château de Blois Château Ceverny morning and afternoon. Blois is the capital of Loir et Cher in central France. According to some people, when it comes to this area without visiting the castle of Blois tantamount to come to Paris without seeing the Eiffel tower.

Château de Blois in the 15th century, 16 and 17 is a favorite residence of the kings of France. Such a magnificent castle has a charming staircase with four wings with a different style of French architects in that era. Non kingdom filled with beautiful furniture and decorated with b

Catania, The City of Etan Volcano

risvank — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 12:12:53 +0000

Catania is a famed larboard and Sicilyas second greatest city. The metropolis is shadowed by the Etna Mount, the volcano that frequently has cheated on the believe of the topical anesthetic people, sending forth great flows of lava, on one juncture down into the township itself. Admonishers of its presence is the dark colour of almost of the repositories and edifices in town. Some of them have multicolour plaster over to appear alike lava. Regular though much of the city to day is in decay, its church museums and art appreciates, and Roman deflowers make it a rewarding place to go.

It has as well been a dupe of seisms. In 1669 the worst eruption in Catanias history came about when Etna buried a great deal of the metropolis under lava that literally ran through the streets. Catania had hardly cured when a monumental quake dismantled much of the city in 1693. The picturesque Pescheria, the historical market that spreads out around Piazza Pardo is a must to go. There are fresh fish carrels, and as well desiccated fruit, bottles of extra virgin olive oil and red wine brought in on the foothills of Mount Etna, bags of dried beats for tasty, topical anaesthetic formula soups and lots more too.

Catania is famed for its fabled nighttime animation. Fabled to the extent that it has the right to speak about its movida. One of the most popular meeting places is the Scalinata Alessi, a staircase in the centre of the university area of the city. Via Crociferi, is where there are lots of bars, pubs and clubs. Now there are about 120 of them, that are always crowded and lively. It is a university city that appeals students from concluded the Confederacy of Italy, and they and the cities viveur inhabitants make Cataniaas night life so occupying that it seems natural to stay out until dawn.

Catania celebrates Sant Agata, the cities patron saint, each year with three days of festivities on the 3, 4 and 5 February. The festival ends with a pyrotechnics expose. Casa di Verga is a memorial to Sicilys national poet, Giovanni Verga, who domiciliated and penned here for many years. Verga was a instigant who dropped a line with poignance approximately the plight of underpaid workers during the Industrial Revolution.
