Lut Tawar Lake as The Gayonese Identity (First Post via steemcoinpan)

Hello Good People..

This is my first post using (www.steemcoinpan.com) and I want to give a special impression in my first post by telling a little about Lut Tawar Lake. The tourism activities in Gayo, Central Aceh are essentially starting from Lut Tawar Lake. I see there is uniqueness in naming this lake. Why ? Because word of lake and sea united in this lake's name. If we trace the history why named like that, then we can not find the source of the naming of this lake, as we know the lake is limited and has fresh water, while the sea was very wide and salty. I suspect this is because the Gayo's people in the past who were in the highlands only knew this lake as the sea, so they pinned the word sea to this lake.

Well, In my Eid Celebration in Central Aceh, I got some interesting views about Lut Tawar Lake. You must know this lake is located in the Gayo Highlands at an altitude of 1,500 meters above the sea (MDPL). Since the beginning, this lake has been known as an attractive tourist spot because of its proportional location. Located on the edges of Takengon City, Central Aceh Regency and its width reach 5,472 hectares with a length of 17 kilometres and a width of 3,219 kilometres so can be explored in two or three hours.

Here, your eyes will be spoiled by beautiful scenery, you can see how the mountains look neatly arranged and here you will feel cool. You will never be bored to linger here, every place you pass will be presented by several tourist spots, one of its is pine forest that escorts this lake and fishermen activities.

This lake is very meaningful for the Gayonese and as well as a characteristic of the Gayonese, this lake producing Depik fish which are rich in health benefits an only lived here, this lake also great impact on improving the economy of the Gayonese community. Today there are many coffee shops around the lake and of course they really love Gayo Arabica Coffee as one of the best coffee in the world and become a supplier for Starbucks.

Now the government is also increasingly paying attention to Lut Tawar Lake by holding the Lut Tawar Festival every year to introduce Lut Tawar Lake to the tourist community, but as tourists, we must also respect the sacredness of this lake by not dirtying it.
