After resting in Langsa city, I immediately rushed to the mangrove forest area located around Kuala Langsa street, from the city center I only needed about 20 minutes to arrive at this mangrove forest, there are lots of tourist destinations on the side of the road but my goal at that time was only to visit the main area of the mangrove forest, at that time Google map became my best friend and Google map was the one that guided my way from the city center to this place, when I arrived at one of the posts I immediately parked my motorbike in the parking lot that had been provided there.
When I wanted to approach the ticket purchase area, I managed to see a monument not far below the stairs, so I decided to approach the monument first and from this monument I managed to get some important information.
It turns out that this mangrove forest has won two awards from the Ministry of Tourism of the Republic of Indonesia, one of which is the Most Popular Ecotourism, and this mangrove forest was inaugurated on December 31, 2021
After reading some important information about the monument, I immediately rushed to the ticket purchasing area,when I got there, I immediately bought a ticket for Rp.10,000 in Indonesian currency per person, and this was a very cheap price considering that the place we were going to explore was the largest mangrove forest in Southeast Asia.
After getting the ticket, I immediately stepped into this mangrove forest, and along the way we can pass a bridge that is large enough to fit about 3 people, but I don't know exactly how long this bridge is, the surrounding conditions are very calm because this place is only surrounded by mangrove trees. Uniquely in this place we can't see many types of mangrove trees which are estimated to reach 35 different types of mangroves, I can't distinguish them for sure but sometimes the size and roots also make a difference.
Sometimes there are some areas that look a bit dark because they are covered by large mangrove trees, and in this forest I managed to find many rivers, but I'm not sure if they are rivers or not because mangrove trees also grow in the water. I like the architecture of this bridge, it looks very elegant, plus the black paint adds to the calming atmosphere.
When I was about 150 meters from the highway, I no longer heard the noise of vehicles, all I could hear were the sounds of nature, which sometimes sounded quite eerie, in this forest, I also managed to hear some sounds that I had never heard before, of course this will be a very valuable experience for me in the future. Coincidentally, at that time, visitors who came to this place were also not too crowded, so along the way I only found a few visitors.
In order not to miss the moment, I often stopped at several areas, I looked and monitored the surrounding conditions and also did not forget to capture the moment, about 200 meters along this bridge I did not meet any other visitors, but I still thought positively and did not hesitate at all to continue this exploration.
After walking about 200 meters, I finally came across the first arched bridge. This bridge looked quite interesting, as we had to climb a slight incline to cross it. From a distance, the bridge looked quite striking, and a river was a beautiful sight to behold from the center of the bridge.
I have a hobby of fishing so when I saw the rivers in this mangrove forest it made me want to go home to get my fishing equipment Lol. In this exploration I have bought 3 bottles of water, and in my opinion water is one of the supplies that is very mandatory to bring when we explore this mangrove forest, because we will not know how long this bridge is and how extreme the weather we have to face, so providing supplies is a very important thing (in my opinion)
I didn't linger in the area of this bridge, after taking some pictures I immediately continued my exploration, I continued walking along this bridge until I managed to find an area where I could see a very beautiful view around this bridge, and I also didn't hesitate to immortalize it.
I stopped in this area for about 5 minutes until suddenly there was an incident that made me very surprised, right beside me, I heard a growl that sounded like the sound of a wild animal, hearing that growl made me very surprised and panicked at that time, but in that panic I also had time to turn towards the source of the sound, but it turned out that the sound came from a monkey that fell from a tree Lol, I don't know how it happened that made the monkey fall to the ground, realizing that, the atmosphere that was initially tense immediately turned into a funny one, but I didn't have time to take a picture of the monkey because he immediately climbed the tree again, maybe he felt embarrassed with me
After the monkey left, I immediately continued exploring. At this point, I don't remember how many meters I had walked, but I was definitely very far from the main road.
