Visiting Mandale Bay // A favorite tourist destination in the new year with very crowded visitors

Good morning to all my beloved hive friends ♥️

I myself have never heard the name of this tourist spot but some of my friends gave me a little information about Teluk Mandale, a tourist spot that offers extraordinary natural and artificial beauty, but the city of Takengon is not a small city and it takes three days and three nights to be able to explore this city as a whole. I was curious about this Teluk Mandale tourist spot so I really agreed to visit it immediately.

My friend who had visited the tourist spot immediately directed the road in front and we just followed him from behind, but to get to the place we had to turn back first because it was far from the tourist spot we visited before.

Before arriving at the tourist spot, I was already very satisfied with the natural beauty that accompanied my journey this time. I saw a very quiet village and the beauty of the high mountains behind it.

And there is a house that makes me very interested in its existence, its shape is very unique and its location is very strategic, namely in the middle of the rice fields.

A cold city is certainly very suitable for the existence of a house in the middle of a rice field like this, I can feel the beauty of the scenery that decorates every day for the residents here. It is truly a valuable experience to be able to visit a place as calm and beautiful as this.

My friend who was far ahead probably didn't realize I stopped, so rather than being left far behind, I immediately started my motorbike and started to continue my journey, until finally I was able to catch up with them and now I just had to follow the directions to get to the Mandale Bay tourist spot.

Maybe after traveling for about 13 minutes, I finally arrived at the tourist spot, and when I arrived there I was immediately greeted by the beauty of the towering mountains.

The mountain itself is located right behind this tourist spot, so after capturing the beauty of the mountain, I immediately entered the Mandale Bay tourist spot by entering a gate first.

After I entered this tourist spot, I immediately headed to the parking lot to park my motorbike first, and I was so happy when I saw a sign stating that parking here was free of charge Lol.

After parking the motorbike, we immediately walked to enter this tourist spot. At first this place looked ordinary to me because it was blocked by a wall, but I was so surprised when I entered this place because the natural beauty offered by this place looked so real and beautiful.

After entering this tourist spot, I immediately walked to the food ordering place, because I was really thirsty from the previous trip, and after I ordered my food, I immediately looked for a suitable place to sit.

At that time I was still hesitant, plus some of my friends were sitting on the second floor, but I myself preferred to sit on the first floor, right on the edge of the sea so I could hear the sound of the waves and the cold wind that pierced straight from the sea.

Luckily, there was a female friend of mine who also wanted to sit by the sea, so when we were at this tourist spot, we didn't sit together because some of my friends were sitting on the second floor. We immediately walked towards the sea by passing a path that was made right above the sea, so when we were right at the end of the tourist spot, I was immediately amazed by the beauty of the tourist spot.

I really made the most of my cellphone camera to capture the beauty of this place as best I could, and in this place there are also several villas that are located right in the area of ​​this tourist spot, so that the presence of these villas can also add to the impression and beauty of this place.

And when we arrived at the end of this tourist spot, we immediately looked for a suitable place to sit, so that we could simultaneously see the natural beauty of the sea and the view of the towering mountains.

How do I express my feelings at that time? It looked so perfect, a vast expanse of sea with several high mountains behind it, if my friend had not invited me to this tourist spot, maybe I would not have been able to feel the beauty and grandeur of this place.

Luckily, at the end of this tourist spot, there were still some empty chairs that we could occupy, and this is what the chairs at the end of this tourist spot looked like, and they were right next to us.

And it looks like the chairs are already filled with visitors, to be honest this place does have a lot of visitors, plus it is the end of year holiday season, so that is a very natural thing to happen. The next hope is to wait for my order to be ready because I am really thirsty Lol

And right beside me there were also several visitors who came with their families, the feeling of happiness and satisfaction was clearly visible on their faces.

Finally, my order was ready and served immediately. My next task was to eat the food while enjoying the natural beauty that continued to accompany me at the tourist spot. It was truly a very memorable experience for me.

After a few minutes, finally some of my friends who were sitting on the second floor called us because they wanted to do a photo shoot at the tourist spot, because this tourist spot also provides a beautiful place to take pictures. And this is where my friends were sitting, right on the second floor.

Actually sitting on the second floor is also very pleasant, but unfortunately the sound of the waves and the cold sea breeze cannot be heard because it is covered by glass windows, so I think sitting on the edge of the sea feels more pleasant.

We immediately approached some of my friends who had arrived earlier at the photo spot, and we passed through a very small path because it was flanked by villas.

And it turns out that I have passed several other beautiful places before, luckily I passed this road so I could still find and see the natural beauty that is right behind this tourist spot, namely a villa and the natural scenery around it.

A beautiful place with a million charms, natural beauty and artificial beauty have come together into perfection.

However, once I arrived at the photo spot, I immediately asked my friends to take my photo. Honestly, I was a bit embarrassed to do it, but to immortalize this experience, I immediately did it well.

And after doing a photo session at this spot, we felt very satisfied so that some friends made a statement to immediately make a trip back to Bireuen city, plus the time was already half past four in the afternoon, so in order not to get caught out on the road, we decided to go home in the evening.

Well, those are some pictures and stories from me in this post. I really hope that this post can provide entertainment for all of my friends. All of these pictures are purely my own. I took them using an Infinix 10 Pro cellphone and edited them using the Lightroom application.

See you again in my next post ♥️
