Playing traditional games is always fun. Especially if the game is a hereditary tradition. In Aceh, there is a kite flying contest called Geulayang Tunang, which is usually done after harvest.
For a traveler whose childhood is skipped with a variety of traditional games, certainly no stranger to the kite. Yes, the toy made of bamboo and oil paper is so attached to the warning.
In Aceh there is a special kite called Geulayang Tunang. It looks like an airplane and is large enough. Geulayang Tunang has become a tradition of kite game from generation to generation with the same name and usually played after harvest.
But now, Geulayang Tunang often played in order to welcome the big day and even contested. Rarely is anyone playing this kite on an ordinary day.
I happen to be able to enjoy Geulayang Tunang while in Lhokseumawe. Dozens of participants brought their kites to be contested. The winner is the highest-flying and upright flying kites.
