imageHello steemers, whats up ?
How about your travel ? Is it fun ?
Today I will share a story about one of city in Aceh, Indonesia. This city have a myth about giant and dragon ? Wow, very interesting i think, isn't it ? #LOL
That city is Tapaktuan, Tapak mean is Footprint tuan mean is man. Man that I mean is that giant. That giant name is Tuan Tapa.
THE STORY

Once upon a time, there were 2 dragons from china found a baby(princess) in the middle of sea. The saved that baby until she grown up (adult maybe haha ).

A few years later, that king and queen from Asralanoka knew about their lost princess. The king ask him daughter to that dragons. That ask was rejected by them. the king brought him princess to the ship after that.

That dragon feels angry and haunted him until them fight in the middle of the sea. That accident made Tuan tapa disincentiveness. Tuan Tapa then came out of the mountain where he was imprisoned and stepped onto a mountain.

As he stood on the top of the mountain, Tuan Tapa was about to throw his body into the battle arena. It is said that footprints when he was standing that is the imprint and traveler can still view until now. image

the fight was won by Mr. Tapa. The princess returned to the arms of the king and the empress. But both did not return to the kingdom and chose to settle in Aceh.


The existence of the footprint located at the foot of Mount Lampu, Tapaktuan, is a tourist attraction. Unfortunately, the process of renovation that may be the goal to preserve, it makes it unnatural again. Although now the tread is no longer natural, but the location is still captivate visitors.

To visit there is not easy. Visitors must pass through a variety of coral reefs. But do not be afraid to get lost, there is already a guide in the form of white lines painted on every stone. Staying in that direction, the giant 6x2.5 metres tread is ready to surprise the eye. image

Believe it or not, you can see this footprint at tapaktuan city. So traveler, come on ! Pack your shirt and go to this city.

I hope this information can make this city become your next destination. See yaa travelers.
