Aceh, as a prominent region in terms of culture has a distinctive dance that is used to welcome guests, namely the dance "Ranup lam Puan". "Ranup" represents "sirih" in the Acehnese language, while "Puan" is a typical Acehnese betel nut. In this dance, the dancers carry betel in "puan." For the people of Aceh, betel has become a kind of symbol of guest glorification. The original Indonesian vines have been used to entertain guests in the daily lives of the people of Aceh. The dance can be said as a cultural visualization of a symbol of guest respect. Ranup Lampuan dance is often offered to welcome guests who attend important events. In weddings, these dance offerings are intended to welcome the bridegroom's arrival by the bride's family, and also appear at other sacred events in receiving government guests.
