Puncak
Puncak is one of famous destination
to vacation for Jakarta’s citizen. When holidays coming puncak usually full
with people from Jakarta to spend vacation. They choose because its not far
from Jakarta. In Puncak we can find or we can feel different atmosphere than in
Jakarta. We know that Jakarta always crowded, traffic jam happens everywhere
and of course Jakarta’s full with pollutions and the weather is too hot.
Besides, puncak has beautiful scenery with tea garden around and the weather is
cold. One day I went to puncak with my friends by motorcycle. I went there from
Jakarta Timur. It took about 1 hour more to get there. I just arrived there we
went to tea garden to walking around.
In tea garden we can saw people who
pick tea leaves. Most of the people who pick the tea leaves are woman. When
they picked it they also use a spread hat that maybe made from a cane or
rattan. They bring a big bucket also for the tea leaves. After we walking
around we decided to go to restaurant to get some food. We choose a simple
restaurant. Its like a house not really huge but comfortable enough to take
rest. I served fried rice and hot tea while my friends served fried noodle,
soup and roasted corn and also hot tea same with me. The food has come and then
we eat. The taste of fried rice was delicious enough plus with the hot tea.
After eat we decided to take a rest for a while.
Then, we go to Paralayang Area to
saw people who use Paralayang. Paralayang or Paragliding is an adventure sport
of flying with a parachute. In Paralayang Area we can saw all of scenery in
Puncak because of its place that so high. You can try Paralayang or Paragliding
but you have to paid first of couse. Paralayang Area also a great place to take
a photographs. Paralayang Area has a big and high cliff around with a green
scenery. We also can feel cold weather in there so I advice you to use jacket
if you want to go there. We can see many people that do Paragliding with a big
parachute. There are a long bench to sit and we can enjoy the view in there. Me
and my friends really love spend time in there.
After we feel satisfied see the
scenery and take photo in Paralayang Area and its about 4pm in the afternoon
then we get ready to go home. But, before we go we want to try eat serabi in a
restaurant around puncak. In that restaurant there are so many food and drink.
Fried rice, fried noodle, soup, fried chicken, seafood, and of course serabi.
For drink we can serve many kinds of drink like hot and cold coffee, hot and
cold tea, soft drink, fruit juice and many more. We can also add a topping for
serabi there’re so many topping like chocolate, cheese, peanut jam, durian,
strawberry jam, and many more. I served a fried noodle and serabi with durian
and chocolate for the topping and hot tea for drink. My friends also served
fried noodle with serabi but they served hot coffee for drink. The taste of
serabi is so good its mild and sweet and also warm cause its fresh from the
oven, so well-matched with the cold weather in puncak and of course also fit
with hot tea or hot coffee. On that day I feel very happy and satisfied cause I
can get relax for myself from daily activities, I can see a beautiful sceneries
not see traffic jams as usual, and also I can spend a great time with my
friends.
