in Hive Learners2 years ago (edited)

Hello, good evening to all #hive users, especially all members of the #hivelearners community wherever you are, may we always be healthy and happy of course.
Last night was a happy night for me, you know why? Yes, I have completed my first assignment posted by the moderator, and the moderator also gave very constructive input. And as usual, my enthusiasm to make posts and share my travel experiences with friends is also very great and full of enthusiasm.

I was so excited, let me directly write about my first travel story, and this time I did this trip not alone but with my friends. They are the ones who often accompany me on various trips, because we have the same hobbies and we are in the same circle, so wherever we travel it feels more fun and exciting. I think you guys feel it too. Yes, right?

Okay, let's get straight to the point, our trip this time is to one of the most beautiful and amazing destinations in our beloved home, namely Aceh Province. This place is located more precisely in one of the districts in Aceh, namely Sigli Regency. The trip took approximately 6 hours by motorbike from my residence, namely Bireuen Regency, but it had not yet reached our destination. To get there we had to travel again by motorbike through the village residents and through the wilderness for approximately 2 hours. However, for road access, it is still quite comfortable to pass by motorbike.

This destination is a river with really green water, and another attraction of that place is the river walls which consist of layers of stone or soil that are neatly arranged, so that it looks really eastetic and certainly very beautiful. So that's why many online visitors call it the Grand Canyon of Aceh, because of the shape of the river walls which have similarities with the Grand Canyon in America. Although the original name of this place which is said to have been given by local residents is Lingkok Kuwieng. Without understanding the details of the meaning of the name, because we were already lulled by its beauty.

It is this beauty that makes us all very excited to struggle to explore the forest which is far from where we live. So because we were really excited, in the middle of the trip we got lost for about 1 hour which in the end we found a shepherd who is a local resident, he was the one who helped us and showed us the right way to the location. However, the feeling of tiredness and fatigue paid off when they arrived at the location.

The water is very cold and the river is not too deep so it is safe to swim and play in the water, the taste is even more beautiful because of the silence and calm of the forest, because this river is located in the middle of the forest and has not been visited by many people, even this has not been used as a place tour. Really calm and peaceful
