Well same with before, first we are gather in our campus to check our attended list. Actually I feel so exited because this is my first time visit Pare-Pare city and we will stay in there 1 night. So our tour duration is 2 days and 1 night.

First we are visiting best western hotel Makassar to practice table manner. This is very interesting because we are in Indonesia always have our own tradition when eat, but now we are taught how to eat in the right way when we are in formal situation. This is very awkward hahaha because we never done this before. There are so many food tools that make us more confused to eat. We just know that every type of food have their own tools. Such as soup spoon, dessert spoon, dinner spoon, dinner fork, dinner knife, etc. all of that tools made from stainless steal to prevent rust. And also before we eat the main course, we have to follow the steps one by one. Start from Bread, Appetizer, Soup, Main Course, Dessert, Tea and Coffee. And about the food, WOW don’t ask because the taste is very very different with Indonesian taste. so we learn and taste how the western food looks like.

And also when we are in this hotel, we are do a house tour in this hotel. So we learn so much about the facilities in hotel, the room type, and so on. In this hotel have so much facilities start from lobby, business center, louge, restaurant, meeting room, swimming pool, and fitness center. And for the room, there are 3 types of room on this hotel. Superior room, deluxe room, and suite room. 

After have lunch in the hotel, now we go to Pare-Pare City. But, because when in the hotel we got a little problem so our lunch is kind of late. So we are also late Arrived in Pare-Pare. And then we having dinner in Paputo Beach Pare-Pare. This place is very beautiful because it has an interesting view in front of the beach. The concept of this place is outdoor so we are dinner and enjoy Pare-Pare city in front of Paputo Beach, it such a beautiful and interesting place. So I am very recommended this place for you to having dinner or just want to enjoy sunset in the evening.

 

After that, we go to the hotel take a rest a prepare for our tomorrow. Because tomorrow we still have a very interesting trip. Keep reading guys J

Today we are wake up earlier because we have to do morning exercise and continue our trip. Pare-Pare still have a fresh air especially in the dawn, its very relaxing and can remove our sleepy. First we go to Pare-Pare seaport, we go there by walk because the distance its just about 2 or 3 kilometers. We can see the boat that use for bring people from one island to another island. Even their transportation could join using the boat. Also we get an information that on this seaport there are usually cruise ships coming from another island.

Then we visit Habibie and Ainun true love monument. This monument symbolized Habibie’s love with her wife is forever and endless. I think most of you don’t get your true love yet? I hope soon you will get one hehehe ^_^.  

After that we also visit MR Habibie House. this house is the place where he was born until his family move to java.

But, before that we stopped while in carlos. That a very famous souvenir shop in pare-pare city. You can buy something that you can bring to your country.

Actually this house is belong to the government so, now this house is being inhabited by the head of Indonesia national bank (BNI) of Pare-Pare. This house is still original because only the furniture that has been changed but the building is still original. But soon this house will become a museum to remembering the journey of MR Habibie since he was a child until his glorious. So, if you curious and want to know about MR Habibie childhood maybe soon you should visit his museum.  

And then the last place we visit is Teras Empang Restaurant. we having lunch in here, for information this place has a very beautiful view that could make your lunch more comfortable because we are eating in front of the river so its more relaxing and enjoyable. Im very recommended this place for you to having lunch with your family, friends, and of course with your couple.

Well I think that’s enough the information about my trip in Pare-Pare city.

I'm so sorry if there any mistakes because I'm also human.

thank you for reading my post and I hope it will be useful for all of you.

DAY 1 MAROS REGENCY 

So the first day we are gather in our campus at 07.00 AM and our tour leader called our name one by one to make sure that we are not late. after that we get an information from our lecture and pray together before go. Our trip today is divided into 4 bus, and i’m on the first bus. Now its time to start our trip to Maros Regency especially Rammang-Rammang. To reach Rammang-Rammang it takes about an hour.

And along the trip, we have to telling or guiding about our topic that already gave from our lecture. Our tour leader call us one by one depends on our topic. My topic is about social organization of makassar city. And also we have to write the tourism component that we passed. Such as hotel, restaurant,Etc.

Before reach Rammang-Rammang, we have to use a traditional boat from the harbour. It takes about 20 - 30 minutes to reach Rammang-Rammang. And for price it depend with the number of the pax. If I not mistake, 1-4 person is IDR. 250.000, and more passenger also the price is more higher.

After arrived in Rammang-rammang, we have to pay IDR 5.000 as a entrance fee. There are 3 tourist destinations that we visit in Rammang-Rammang, Passaung Site/King Kong Cave, Padang Ammarung, and Berlian (Diamond) Cave.

First is Apassung Site. The Paasaung site is also referred to as the Kingkong / Kingkong Cave because there is a stone that resembles the head of Kingkong. When viewed from the side this stone is very similar to the head and face of kingkong.

In addition, at the Pasaung site there are also some red handprints. So according to researchers who have visited this place, the hand stamp is a relic of humans in ancient times and the color used is the red color derived from sirih leaves. The hand stamp is a sign that they have lived or occupied this place. However, over time some of the handprints began to be erased little by little.

After that we have a lunch and also do zuhur pray. Then continue our trip to Padang Ammarung. Padang Ammarung is actually a source of water for the surrounding community. But on our trip this time the source of the spring did not come out due to the long dry season and also the result of global warming so that the springs are dry. So the local community fetches water from the mountain behind it through water pipes.

After from Padang Ammarung, we continued to the last place, the Diamond Cave. In this cave, there are real diamonds, but they are still raw, covered with fine rocks. According to the local guides there, this place was discovered around 2014 ago. Previously there was a resident there dreamed twice about the existence of this place, but when he wanted to go looking for that found only a large cliff. Then he told the local government that inside the cliff there were chunks of diamonds.

Imported researchers from outside to investigate this place and finally according to researchers that there are diamonds inside the cliff after being tracked using a tool. After that they made an entrance to ensure the existence of the diamond and indeed there was a chunk of raw diamonds at the top of the bottom of the cliff. After that, in 2015 it was opened to the public as a diamond cave tourist destination. In addition to diamonds, some of the rocks in the cave resemble animals such as elephants, dinurusurus, dogs, octopus and spiders. Some even resemble a mother hugging her child.

That is the last place that we visit today. After that we are going back to our campus. Dont worry we still have a beatiful place to visit tomorrow. :)

Day 2 PANGKEP REGENCY

Today we are start our tour faster than tomorrow, because now its Friday so the moeslem boys want to do jumat pray. Now we are heading to pangkep regency, same like tomorrow my friends guiding along the trip and we also still have to write the tourist attraction that we passed. The trip to pangkep regency takes about an hour. 

Finally we are arrived in pangkep regency. First we are visiting pandai besi, this is one of the tradiotional culture in pangkep regency. Pandai besi is a person/people who can make the traditional weapon that made from iron such as parang, knife, sabit, badik, and so on. This place has been established for 60 years and has already passed 3 generation.

One of The unique things in here is, if you want to buy it you can request the form of the weapon that you want, also you can request the time that takes to make the weapon. To make one parang it takes about an hour, but to make badik it takes about 2 days. Because the process is more complicated. In one day they can make 15 until 16 parang because they usually make from 9.00 am until 4.00 pm. Actually there are another pandai besi in here, so they will mark their product to make it different with the other. And for the price is start from IDR 75.000 until higher depends on the type of the iron and the form of the weapon.

 After finish in pandai besi, we visit the traditional market in pangkep regency. In this market we have to do an observation for 1 hour. Actually this market is same with another traditional market, but in front of this market there is a river that used for the seller who came from the island. The people from the island used boat across the river to reach this market. According to my observation in this market, there are so many mango on this market because now is mango season hehehehe. The type of the mango is very various such is, honey mango, gole’ mango, arum manis mango, and so on. The seller said that the mango is from their regency but in another district (labakkang and sigeri).

Also in this market there is a traditional transportation called delman or people in here usually called bendi. If you want to try it, the cost is IDR 15.000 until IDR 25.000 depend on the passenger.

After finish in the market, the boys do jumat pray and the woman go to the 88 pangkep restaurant for lunch. The boys go with 1 bus and the girls go with 3 bus. After finish pray the boys also go to the restaurant for lunch together with everyone. Actually I hope we will eat traditional food in here but no, we still eat regular food. Hehehe.

After finish lunch we continue our trip to BATARI (bandeng tanpa duri) or in English is milkfish without bones. In this place we got so many information about milkfish. Milkfish is an icon of pangkep regency but, A lot of people lazy to eat that because this fish has so many bones that certainly very annoying. So the owner of this place MRS ratnawati mentari make a new innovation to make milkfish easier to eat. First she buy the fish next she cut the fish and clean all of the bones, and after that she sell it to another people.

Now, in one day she can sell about 200 fish. And the price of the fish is start from IDR 10.000 depends on the weight of the fish. Also this fish has so many benefits, even milk fish has more protein than salmon fish and the price is cheaper than salmon fish. Also the part of the body of milk fish have benefit too. Such as their bones, can be used as gelatine. Not just fish, in this place also sell another product but still using milkfish, such as floss, and snacks.

Now its time for us to go back to campus because our trip today is finished. After arrive in campus we get  a dinner box yeyy J and go back to our home. I think that’s enough for my experience in my first trip. I hope I can tell you again about my next trip.

Thank you for reading my blog and see u on the next post. ^_^
