Traveling in Lampung (Sumatra, Indonesia) is not complete if you haven’t visit Way Kambas National Park, its beach like Kalianda Resort, Pulau Pasir and some highland resort like in Pesagi mountain. May be some of thema re very familiar for you, or for some people in Indonesia, but how about Pesagi mountain. This is one of the best mountains in Lampung and most native in Lampung came form here. You can also see the role of this mountain from the folk song.

Pesagi Mountain
Pesagi Mountain is placed in Liwa, which is one of the regions in Lampung and not to far away from the centar city Bandar Lampung. And Pesagi Mountain is the biggest mountain in Liwa. Liwa itself is placed around in the Pesagi Mountain and has 3,300 Ha in broad. Once you come to this city, you can directly find the best scene of this city, which is absolutely this mountain. The green scene, and the beautiful, fresh and natural place you can find here.
That is one alternative that you can visit in Lampung. May be you are tired with the usual holiday trip and you want some extreme experience. I think go to this place can be your alternative. If you want to go to this place, you can go with two alternatives route. The first one, you can walk from Pekon Bahway to Pekon Hujung and it will need around 12 hours. The second choice is you can go through Pekon Hujung, and the time you need is the same with the first alternative. Those alternatives can challenge your adrenaline and make your life better.
Another think you need from Lampung is its handicraft. May be you don’t really know about Tapis. Tapis is one of the most popular, famous, and also prestige fabric that use in Lampung. One or more type of Tapis can be valued over 100 million. Rupiah. Actually there are lots kind and type of Tapis, but some of them like Jung Sarat and many more.
After you get some experience, fabric and handicraft, may be you will need to try some traditional food from Lampung such “sruit” and the famous “Kripik Pisang” and “Pisang Coklat”. For your information most people in Lampung very like “sruit”, this is kind of salad in western country that combine some natural and young leaf from some vegetables. The diffenet is only the salad use dressing and “sruit” use traditional chili recipe.
If you don’t really like it, you can go to Bandar Lampung, the centre of Lampung and find some food also like Bakmi Kodon, Mie Koga and more. Those foods are the most popular in Lampung. “Sruit”, and some food in Bandar Lampung is the only food you can eat on the spot, but if you want to buy and bring it home, you should try “Pisang Coklat” and “Keripik Pisang”. Those two foods are very popular and delicious to try.
Spending your holiday in Lampung, especially in some good place like I have told you before will be very pleasant. You can enjoy your holiday and also bring some delicious food. Lampung is not merely city, but also best place for holiday.
