Flower City Art Festival

Tired of squeezing all my veins and muscles when participating in the festival that was held in the city center in my area, even though the road was quite far from my village but the boredom and fatigue in traveling paid off after participating in the excitement of this annual festival.

This is often done every year to commemorate the diversity of the city that is covered by the diversity of flowers but it's a shame because the carts and carts filled with flowers are no longer on display like last year due to the pandemic that hasn't disappeared from my area, so the convoy for this event is still limited.

This is the moment of togetherness that is created when people from all walks of life take photos together from various backgrounds, customs, cultures, religions, ethnicities and feelings come together as one.

Look at those standing there are delegates from various government agencies and also from figures of each religion holding bamboo wrapped in flowers. In my area, this bamboo is used by the ancestors as bells or reminders when it comes in the morning and late at night or is also used on holidays. time will work in the fields. This is a loud reminder when the bamboo is hit with wood and will make a fairly loud sound, this object is called "tetengkoren" which means hook or bell.

If you look more closely, actually foreign nationals are also involved in this grand activity, there are tourists from America who join because of their love for the beauty of the flower city in my area, these foreign tourists wear blue clothes with white hair.

Don't forget to also shoot at the leader of the flower city, this is the mayor with his wife and the deputy mayor and his wife wearing red batik clothes. Understandably, batik clothes are typical clothes of my region and have become legal clothing for the national ones in my country.

This moment of happiness does not only last during the day but continues at night by being located in a very high monument, this monument is named alpha and omega and the cross is at the end. This beautiful decoration is covered with flowers underneath and colorful lights that surround it.

The festival concert was attended by various local and international singers including foreign tourists who participated in celebrating the flower festival night concert.

The harmony and togetherness of life is felt even though people have different backgrounds but peace is still maintained so that there is no chaos and commotion in the community. It also attracts foreigners so that they are comfortable in my area, there are even tourists who are married and live with local people. This is proof that if life in one area or city is peaceful and comfortable then many people will come to visit.

That's the atmosphere of the flower city festival activities that I have participated in, I hope you are entertained.
