When a thought has started to get stuck and there are no more ideas to express, then looking for inspiration in quiet places and not yet reached by many visitors or tourists is the only way to relax your mind, look for inspiration so that you can share it with Hive friends at this community.
After thinking without any plans, today we decided to explore the river in Sei Bingei District, Langkat Regency. The time from our house to the river is not too far, it only takes about 40 minutes and there is no traffic jam to reach this place.
Like the post that we shared a few weeks ago, the rivers in Langkat Regency have their own characteristics, namely that most rivers have shallow water, such as the Karo Indah river that we will visit.
Karo Indah is the name of a river that is still not too many visitors. In this place we can enjoy solitude, soak in the river without fear of deep river currents or big waves and slippery rocks, because this river tends to be sandy and the rocks here are not too slippery.
When visiting with family, don't be too afraid to leave them alone because the river water tends to be shallow. In the middle of the river you can play swings and capture as many photos as possible and of course to add to your travel collection on your social media.
And there is an interesting photo spot on this Karo Indah river, namely the mini waterfall that is there. You can directly bathe under the waterfall and of course there is a different sensation there, because the waterfall that directly hits our bodies is like a free reflexology massage from nature and it feels really relaxing. From the river bank to cross to the waterfall there is a rope that is used to cross and even without a rope, you can actually cross because the river is really shallow at the waist of an Asian adult.
In addition to waterfalls, along the way along this beach, there are also many beautiful cliffs carved by nature to form exotic and very beautiful sculptures and can be used as interesting photo spots, of course. The water is green and not rushing, the beautiful cliffs, the existence of a mini waterfall that comes from another river above the area and the green forests around it add to the exoticism of this place.
You can linger in this place looking for as much inspiration as possible without fear of crowds, especially during the current covid 19 pandemic. However, for some time to come, we are sure that the beautiful Karo river will become a new tourist attraction that is quite attractive to the people of Medan and its surroundings, because the management and the local community have begun to aggressively promote this place as a new leading tourist attraction in Langkat Regency.
In the Karo Indah river you can also climb tires that are rented by the manager. Tire rental services for large sizes that can be accommodated by about 2 to 3 adults are Rp. 20,000 or the equivalent of $ 1.5 Dollars and for a small size tire it can only accommodate 1 adult and the rental fee is relatively cheap, which is around Rp. 15,000 or the equivalent of $1 Dollar.
And to reach this place there is no public transportation, so you have to bring your own vehicle, and for the problem of the availability of facilities on this river there are only small canteens that only sell instant noodles in cups. And for parking fees at this place on weekends, you can pay Rp. 15,000 for two-wheeled vehicles and RP. 25,000. for four-wheeled vehicles.
How are you interested in making this river one of your visiting places? We are waiting for you here. See you and healthy always for you. Warm greetings from us Tomi and Maya from Medan, Indonesia
