  The Merlion, a lion with a fishtail that resembles a feline mermaid, is the most well-known tourist destination in Singapore. It is located in Merlion Park. The "lion" (Singha) was present when a prince from Sumatra arrived on the island in antiquity, and the "fish" (koi) pays homage to Singapore's past as a port city. One of the most well-known landmarks in Singapore is the Merlion statue, but taking a good photo of it is practically impossible. The Merlion, Singapore's national emblem that resembles both a fish and a lion, was developed and has only gained popularity as a result of the nation's tourism industry and government. There are no set hours to view the Merlion, but it is particularly lovely as the sun sets and the Marina Bay buildings are illuminated. The park, which is a part of Fullerton Heritage, receives one million visitors annually. Here, The Merlion was given its own special area because it had previously resided in the Fullerton Wate...

Villa Bukit Pancawati - Bogor Puncak is not the only tourist destination in Bogor; Pancawati is also a viable option. A settlement in the Caringin subdistrict of the Bogor district is known by the name of Pancawati. Beginning in 1996, Pancawati was recognized as one of the suppliers of lodging, commercial facilities, and services (villa, resort, camping, outbound). Villa Bukit Pancawati is located in a location that is easier to access than the Puncak area. It is only about 10 km from the Ciawi Bogor toll exit in the direction of the Bogor Sukabumi highway, and all types of vehicles can pass by. This is certainly one of Pancawati's advantages in developing her business, particularly in tourism. I got the chance to visit and stay at Villa Bukit Pancawati in Bogor a few weeks ago. I was strongly drawn to this place and didn't want to go. This staycation offers a variety of facilities that you may use as the location of your choice for family reunions, meetings, training sessions,...

After people do water sports and have fun in Tanjung Benoa, they can go to Turtle Island. It's called Turtle Island or Turtle Island because it's a small island where baby turtles are raised. This island is a very small plain of raised land surrounded by swamps. It is in the Tanjung Benoa-Nusa Dua-Bali area.    If the sea is high, it takes this automatic boat about 15 minutes to get there. If the sea is low, it takes about 25 minutes. Serangan Island, which is also in Bali and is known for turtle breeding, can be reached by road. From the plains of Tanjung Benoa, you need a motor-boat called a "glass bottom boat" to get here. Turtles are almost extinct animals that are now protected by law. These animals don't grow up until they are 65 years old, and they can live as long as 200 years. The turtle population is on the edge of extinction because turtle meat tastes good and is often eaten and traded. As a result, the turtle population has dropped by a lot. There are ...

When you hear "Angel Island," you probably think of a beautiful island that looks like an angel. When you get there, you'll see that the name of this island isn't completely made up. Yes, people have always liked it because of how beautiful it is. A short history of Bidadari Island Kahyangan Island, Kelor Island, Onrust Island, and Anyer Island are all close to Bidadari Island in terms of geography. Records show that these five islands are still part of the South Thousand Islands District, specifically the Untung Jawa Village region. These islands are the ones closest to Jakarta, and they have been managed for a long time. In the 17th century, the Dutch Colonial government built institutions for people with leprosy and places for people to live in exile on the island. Bidadari Island used to be called Pulau Pumered and Pulau Sakit.After the Republic of Indonesia got its independence, everyone left this island  and rebuilding started in the 1970s. Bidadari Island is no...

This is my third time visiting this place, and the atmosphere remains just as enchanting. It's absolutely gorgeous and incredibly cozy. Lingkung Gunung, located in the city of Bogor, is a popular attraction for nature enthusiasts and outdoor lovers. Situated at the base of Mount Gede Pangrango, this tourist destination offers stunning views and pleasant temperatures, thanks to its location some 800 meters above sea level. Even though it was the dry season, the mountain and the shade from the trees created a cozy ambiance that I couldn't resist. Instead of camping, I decided to fulfill my desire for a horseback ride. What's amazing is that the horses here can roam freely without being controlled by handlers. I never tire of coming back to this place, and I truly hope it continues to thrive and expand. Now, let me introduce you to a couple of amazing spots and activities you can experience at Lingkung Gunung Adventure Camp Bogor, surrounded by the area's natural attractio...
