Kisah bangunan sekolah dasar berwujud reyot ini menyimpan sepenggal jejak inspirarif. Serba-serbinya menjadi penyengat semangat. Realitanya, kini kobaran kebangkitan terus berkumandang lantang.

Sejak itu sejumlah destinasi wisata di Belitung Timur ini gencar kami perkenalkan kepada masyarakat luas," ujar Fahroni, salah satu staf Dinas Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata (Disbudpar) Kabupaten Belitung Timur.
Pekan lalu, detikTravel bersama sejumlah awak media peserta 'Jurnalis Trip 2015' bertandang ke SD Muhammadiyah Gantung atau dikenal dengan sebutan SD Laskar Pelangi, yang letaknya di Kecamatan Gantung, Kabupaten Belitung Timur, Bangka Belitung.

Belitung Timur - Various locations shooting Laskar Pelangi movie in Belitung is now visited by many tourists, including a replica of SD Muhammadiyah. Although the building was rickety, the school kept an inspiring message.
The story of this rickety elementary school building keeps a trail of inspiration. All of them became stinging spirit. The reality, now the infernal revival continues to loud.
"We have to admit, after Laskar Pelangi, Belitung Island became known by many people, not only the Indonesian archipelago, but abroad, since a number of tourist destinations in East Belitung are he intensively introduced to the public," said Fahroni, one of the staff Department of Culture and Tourism (Disbudpar) East Belitung Regency.
Last week, detikTravel with a number of media crew participants 'Journey of Trip 2015' visited SD Muhammadiyah Gantung or known as SD Laskar Pelangi, located in Gantung District, East Belitung Regency, Bangka Belitung. It took an hour by road from Hanandjoeddin HAS Airport, Tanjungpandan City, Belitung Regency.
Karya tulis Andrea kemudian diangkat ke layar lebar oleh Mira Lesmana. Film Laskar Pelangi pun sukses membetot perhatian publik. Replika SD Muhammadiyah inilah sebagai salah satu lokasi syuting film tersebut.
Nampak dari kejauhan, bangunan sekolahnya begitu tak layak. Berdasarkan film Laskar Pelangi, sepuluh bocah yaitu Lintang, Sahara, Ikal, Syahdan, Mahar, Borek alias Samson, Trapani, Harun, A Kiong dan Kucai, belajar di sebuah sekolah reyot.
Kalau SD Muhammadiyah yang sesungguhnya sudah ambruk. Guna keperluan syuting Laskar Pelangi, contoh SD Muhammadiyah dibangun seperti aslinya. Meski replika, kondisi fisik sekolah itu tetap mengetuk keprihatinan. Ya, memang ada beberapa bagian bangunan yang asli dipasang pada replika.
Bukit putih ibarat 'karpet' serta tiang bendera menyambut kedatangan setiap orang untuk menuju dua pintu ruang kelas sekolah. Lagi-lagi, pasir putih itu replika pasir pantai.
"Ini pasir dari sisa-sisa penambangan timah di dekat sini," kata Megi, pemandu wisata.
Andrea's writing was then lifted to the big screen by Mira Lesmana. Film Laskar Pelangi also successfully membetot public attention. Replica SD Muhammadiyah is as one of the filming location of the film.
Visible from a distance, the school building is so unworthy. Based on the movie Laskar Pelangi, ten boys are Lintang, Sahara, Ikal, Syahdan, Mahar, Borek aka Samson, Trapani, Aaron, A Kiong and Kucai, studying in a rickety school.
If the real Muhammadiyah element has collapsed. For the purposes of shooting Laskar Pelangi, the example of SD Muhammadiyah was built as the original. Despite the replica, the physical condition of the school is still knocking concerns. Yes, indeed there are some parts of the original building mounted on the replica.
White hill is like a 'carpet' and flagpole welcomes everyone to get to the door of the school classroom. Again, the white sand was a replica of beach sand.
"This is sand from the remains of tin mining near here," said Megi, the tour guide.
Dua ruang kelas saling berdempetan, dinding papan bercat lusuh. Sebagian atap seng nampak bolong-bolong. Ruang kelas beralas tanah dengan interior berupa lemari, kursi dan meja belajar seadanya.
Bahkan bangku kayu siswa terlihat rusak. Sejumlah foto pahlawan nasional ditempel di dinding kelas. Begitulah gambaran suasana SD Laskar Pelangi yang walaupun reyot, tapi menjadi tujuan wisata para turis.
"Kini, replika sekolahnya menjadi objek wisata yang diburu para wisatawan. Bukan soal kondisi reyot sekolahnya, tapi pesan dan nilai yang digaungkan Andrea Hirata soal kebangkitan dan semangat," kata Megi.
Bertepatan film Laskar Pelangi diputar di bioskop pada 2008, sekolah tersebut menjadi magnet bagi wisatawan. Bangunan replika SD Muhammadiyah itu diresmikan pada 2010.
The two classrooms were huddled together, the walls of the board painted shabby. Some of the tin roofs look hollow. Classroom grounded with interior cabinets, chairs and tables to learn sober.
Even the student wooden benches look damaged. A number of national hero photos are posted on the classroom wall. That's the picture of the atmosphere of SD Laskar Pelangi which although rickety, but a tourist destination of the tourists.
"Now, the replica of the school is a tourist attraction that tourists hunt for, not about the rough condition of the school, but the messages and values that Andrea Hirata echoes about the resurrection and spirit," Megi said.
Coinciding with the film Laskar Pelangi was screened in theaters in 2008, the school became a magnet for tourists. The replica building of SD Muhammadiyah was inaugurated in 2010.
Replika SD Muhammadiyah di Gantung ini merupakan salah satu destinasi favorit para wisatawan," kata Sekretaris Disbudpar Kabupaten Belitung Timur Rusman.
