Papandayan’s Mountain




Parking area Papandayan’s Mountain.


            Hi , my name is Nur Intan, I am a student at Gunadarma University. On this occasion I would like to tell you about the beautiful panorama that I’ve ever seen by my own eyes. Indonesia is one of the country that has a lot of places which has beautiful and interesting panoramas. Almost everybody in the world knows that. For the example is Bali. But on this occasion I wouldn’t want to tell you about Bali, but I'll tell you about the Papandayan’s Mountain.
Golden Crater "Kawah Mas"  
Forest Die  "Hutan Mati "
Papandayan’s Mountain
Papandayan’s located in Garut, West Java. Before the mountain erupted, this mountain has four craters. These craters can be visited by public who are not climbers. This crater can be visited because it has access to a smooth road that stretches from the bottom to go reach the crater. Before climbing, we are required to manage lisencess. To enter the mountain area, papandayan’s visitors are has to pay Rp.5000 per person. And if we use car, it will be charged Rp.30,000. Hikers can park their vehicles in the parking area which is quite broad. It takes just five minutes from the parking area and after that we will enter the crater area is known as the “Golden Crater”. We start climbing the crater sulfur that have very strong smell. Be careful when stepping because some places have attacking ground with hot temperatures. About five minutes we walk , we will arrive at the “Pondok Salada”. There are small river that have a clear water but contains with sulfur. Which is very famous in this mountain is a “Dead Forest”. The dead forest has its own beauty, with trees that doesn’t have leaves anymore , with white ground and also the cold air add more perfection of this place. There are many flowers, “Edelwais”. It is believed to be one of the things that can strengthen relationships of a couple.
So this is my stories from my experience seen the beauty of nature. If there are some words or phrases that are not appropriate or less understandable, please understand because I still in the learning phase. Thank you.
