Good evening to all my friends.Wherever you are, I hope you are well. 馃槝鈾ワ笍



Hello, my dear friends. On this wonderful occasion, I would like to share a story and some of my experiences regarding a visit I made to a particular place in the city of Pidie Jaya鈥攁 park that has been left abandoned for the past few months. I decided to visit it to observe the beauty that still remains there.

The site is known as the Pidie Jaya City Park. I chose to visit with a friend after hearing reports that it had been closed following a disaster that caused significant damage. Several features caught my interest, including a swimming pool located in the middle of the park, as well as a number of structures鈥攐r "collection houses"鈥攕ituated within the grounds.

Upon arriving, I noticed that the path leading into the park was quite dirty. To enter the area, I had to cross a small bridge, making my way beneath the canopy of some small trees

Upon my first arrival, I immediately noticed several small stalls set up within the city park. The trees surrounding the pond remained lush and vibrant, though the ground beneath them was scattered with fallen leaves鈥攁 sign that no one was left to clean the area around the now-neglected pond. There were also designated spots for relaxing, such as wooden benches placed along the pond鈥檚 edge, which had once been beautifully decorated. I sat alone on one of these benches to take in the atmosphere. Although the pond itself had turned a yellowish hue and was no longer in a usable state, the surrounding area still held an unforgettable beauty. I took a few photographs while sheltered by the trees along the water鈥檚 edge; it felt like the perfect spot to capture some images and simply enjoy the moment.

After enjoying the atmosphere there for a while, my friend and I decided to explore the place further. I headed toward an area in the middle of the pond, where there was a structure resembling a traditional Acehnese house. Inside, I found historical artifacts鈥攕uch as rencong (traditional Acehnese daggers) and various other items left behind by our ancestors. To reach my destination, I had to walk along the edge of the pond, passing by an area featuring small, floating, duck-shaped pedal boats. Once I arrived, I encountered a floating platform that served as a bridge to the structure in the middle of the pond. I stepped onto this floating platform and took a few more photos.

So, my friends, after spending some time on the floating platform鈥攆rom which I could see a house situated in the middle of the pond鈥擨 realized, unfortunately, that I couldn't reach it; the platform was locked in place, making it impossible to paddle any further toward the center.
After a while, having observed the area and captured a few photos, I decided to head back to where we had first arrived. On the way back, I followed the same path along the edge of the pond. I noticed that the pond itself was quite clean, though the water had turned yellow鈥攁 sight that saddened me, as it was clear the place had simply been left to fall into disrepair. I took some more pictures, capturing the clean pond, the calm water, and the trees growing all around鈥攊t really is a beautiful spot. The scenery and the fresh air here are every bit as good as what you might find elsewhere; it would be a perfect destination for tourists looking to enjoy a peaceful atmosphere and crisp, fresh air. It鈥檚 a real shame鈥擨鈥檓 not sure if the site is closed temporarily or for good. When I reached the area along the bank where the "duck boats" (pedal boats) were docked, I took a few photos of them; they are no longer in use and have clearly been abandoned, left to sit there in this part of Pidie Jaya.
