Hi hivers, how are you all? I hope that all of us are always in good health and well, amen.
After a long time I didn't say hello to the hiver all today I want to try to share a new story with all of my friends. By living a very busy and tense daily life, it finally leaves little room for me to be able to enjoy real life. Walking calmly, the wind that caresses cheerfully makes me even more excited to go and continue walking through the thickets that gave me a million surprises.
Grapella is one of the peaks that is still very hotly discussed in various villages, finally the news of this Grapella peak was heard in my ears and triggered my desire to visit the place. At first I was indifferent and did not want to know how the beauty of the Grapella peak was discussed, until one night I tried to find out through various existing social media about the existence of this peak.
It turns out that the peak of Grapella is very, very beautiful, the place is located in South Aceh Regency, precisely in Gampong Panton Luas, Tapaktuan District. South Aceh specifically Tapaktuan, is indeed known as one of the cities that has various tourist attractions that are no less beautiful than other tourist attractions, besides having two island tourist sites, Seven Level Waterfalls, 1000 Level Waterfalls and Tapak Tuan Tapa which have been very legendary in the city.
Actually, the naming of the peak of Grapela is an abbreviation of the Land Change Movement which is dubbed by the local community. In the beginning, this grapela hill was an empty, barren hill without any greenery. So that the local community took the initiative to make the peak as a land of economic income for the local community. Then the peak is made into a garden of citronella which looks beautiful and cool.
After being transformed into a hill that lives and looks beautiful, this peak looks very popular among teenagers who like to adventure in the wild. Every holiday, the peak of Grapela is always filled with young people who come to witness the vast expanse of the beauty of the city of Tapaktuan from the height of the hill. To get to the top of Grapelas it takes about 10 to 15 minutes using a two-wheeled vehicle to get to the foot of the hill, while to get to the top of Grapela itself we have to walk through the valley and climb small hills to the top of Grapela.
After walking so far to the top, I was very happy and really enjoyed the beautiful panorama that spread out in front of me. The wind was so strong that it wiped away the sweat and fatigue of a long journey. It all paid off with all the beautiful things on the hill. For a moment it amazed me and always felt grateful for all the abundance of God's grace that I always felt in this life.
And I hope that there will be more discoveries of places like this in Aceh, especially Abdya and South Aceh. Because I am someone who really likes adventure in the wild, because it challenges me to always seek and always try new things that are more exciting. And I also thank the local people who have been very creative in making this rich nature more aware of and more grateful for by anyone who is able to interpret a journey and the beauty of this extraordinary nature.
So! For those of you who have never been to South Aceh, hurry up and come there to visit other interesting places before old age becomes a reason for us to stop exploring and doing adventures in this archipelago.
