There are so many new things to experience when visiting Kuala Langsa Village. Here, we can find many houses built directly above the water, and we get a glimpse of a way of life that depends on the river and the sea as the main sources of income. It's a unique place that offers a completely different perspective on everyday life.
The village is also well known for its beautiful natural attractions, especially the Langsa Mangrove Forest, one of the most popular tourist destinations in the area. Thanks to its location, Kuala Langsa is considered a very strategic village for both local residents and visitors.
The village is about 40 kilometers from where I live, but I've been there many times. Whether it's for an afternoon ride, visiting its scenic attractions, or simply spending a relaxing day fishing, it's always a place worth coming back to.
The road conditions are also very good because it is paved, so access to this village is quite easy. And on both sides of the road we will also often find fish ponds owned by local residents, of course this is a sight that is often seen in coastal areas.
While exploring the village, I came across two large bridges spanning a wide river that serves as the main route for local fishing boats traveling in and out. I also took a moment to stop on one of the bridges, enjoying the peaceful view below while capturing the moments unfolding around me.
On the riverbank we can also see views of floating net cages, but I don't know what fish are being farmed in them. In addition, we can also see many houses built right on the riverbank and also several coffee shops, from this view we can already see many differences, people here rely more on boats than motorbikes to earn money, and now we will see several houses built directly above the water surface.
Look at this view, doesn't it look so unique.?
I can conclude that many residents in this village don't have yards, as the only way to reach their homes is by a long bridge, accessible only by motorbike. Interestingly, during high tides, the water level beneath these houses also rises, and vice versa.
Small wooden docks can be found almost everywhere, serving as parking spots for local fishing boats. What impressed me the most about this village, however, was the warmth and friendliness of its people. Over the course of my visits, I've made many friends here. There's so much we can learn from this village, and it reminds us that our differences are what complement one another and make every community unique
And this is the second bridge that we can find in this village, this bridge looks the same as the previous one, and what makes it different is the natural scenery below.
This village is also a favorite destination for fishing enthusiasts. Many people travel here from different areas just to enjoy fishing, especially since the open sea is only a short distance from the village.
