My Observations a Few Days Ago
In accordance with my observations a few days ago. "The LAUT TAWAR" is considered by local people to be full of mystery. They revealed that no one dared to bathe or sail in the middle of the sea. Many people died while bathing in the middle of the sea. I saw from the shape of the sea that it was not the sea as it was. understood by the general public.
Understanding of local communities
I analyzed the statements of the people of "Aceh Tengah" where they all said it was "LAUT TAWAR". This statement is very natural, because the people there do not have a sea like the seas in other places. The people there state that the area of the "LAUT TAWAR" is estimated to be approximately 5,500 hectares. But in essence it is a lake, not a sea.
Location and Conditions of Takengon City
The location of the LAKE TAWAR is surrounded by mountains. I felt the air temperature was so cold that the people there had white skin and reddish cheeks, different from other Acehnese people. The height of Takengon City is approximately 1,256 M. The people there are very friendly to tourists who visit their area.
