Lombok Island is one of a
thousand islands in Indonesia. The island located
between Bali and Sumbawa island with 4725 km2 wide. The
main city in Lombok Island is Mataram City. This island
is a part of West Nusa Tenggara Barat Province.
Lombok Island also known as the Virgin Island. This name
is given because this island has so much natural
potential that not yet being touched by people. Senggigi
Beach, Kuta Beach, Gili Trawangan and Rinjani Mountain
is some of a well known tourist destination in Lombok
Island. But there is so many other place that also have
a beautiful view but not too famous among the tourist,
such as Cemara Beach, Sekotong Beach, Benang Setokel &
Benang Kelambu Waterfall, Otak Kokoq Waterfall, Jeruk
Manis Waterfall, and many more.
Beside the beautiful site of natural potential that not
yet being touched, Lombok Island also kept an exotic
culture from the native tribe on the island, Sasak
Tribe. Sasak culture of art is very unique and varied.
Many people assumed that Sasak culture is the same as
Balinese Culture. But the assumption is wrong because,
although they look alike, the culture of that two
society is has a big different. For example is the way
they play their music instruments to escort traditional
dance. Kendang and ceng-ceng is a music instrument that
use by Balinese and Sasaknesse. Although using the same
instruments, they have a different ways to play it. |
