“Lingsar temple.” Considering one of Lombok’s tourism slogans in Bali there is no Lombok but in Lombok there is Bali, that is the meaning of a word that means that in Lombok there are many descendants of Balinese Hindu society with Hindu teachings which have developed since 3 centuries ago with the invasion of Karangasem kingdom in Bali to Lombok.
Until now this descendant has become a part of Lombok people who are Hindus who have the style of building houses and places of worship so that visitors can also feel the atmosphere of Bali in Lombok such as the existence of Lingsar temple in Lingsar sub-district, West Lombok regency which is a symbol of harmony between the two religions namely Islam and Hinduism.
Stone which is this symbol if recalculated with the naked eye is always a different number
In this place there are 2 places of worship side by side which consist of temples in the north called Gaduh and in the south there is a building where Muslims worship when Wetutelu and between the two religions tolerate each other.
Including making an agreement not to bring pork food in This place is because it is harm for Muslims and is forbidden to bring food from beef because cows are animals that are considered sacred by Hindus every year between the two sides of Hinduism and Islam when they conduct war ketupat by throwing each other with a diamond as a symbol gratitude for the abundance of fortune given by God for the abundance of crops.
In the courtyard of Lingsar Temple, Mrs. Dina with a local guide
Lingsar Temple is a symbol of harmonization for religious life in Lombok so that this place is used as a Lombok tourism destination because every visitor will feel something unique here because how can a different understanding can worship in the same place and unify this temple’s vision built by Anak Agung Ngurah Karangasem in 1741 because the king had a wife from Lombok until the king gave a place in the temple area Lingsar to build a place of worship for Islam wetutelu for more details let’s visit and we listen to local guides who tell stories.
Every visitor who comes to this place will be charged a tourist entrance ticket and later pay for a local guide, before we are invited to go to places – objects that will be told local guides will take us to a shady place and then introduce themselves before telling the place in around the Lingsar temple area here consists of many local guides, one of whom I know most, Mr. Yan, whose real name is Sayang because among the local guides Mr. Yan at Lingsar temple, the best way to be your guide.
When the handler calls the eel out with an egg
Before entering every object we must first wear a yellow scarf tied to the waist as a symbol of respect, perhaps this is very common to do things like this in every place to enter the temple object because this is always required as we visit the temple in Bali.
After each wear only a yellow scarf on the waist will we go into the temple area inside there is a pond inside which is inhabited by tuna (like eels but large) which is hundreds of years old and is considered sacred and we can see by pulverizing boiled eggs into pond-sized water 6 x 6 meters and in the middle of the pool there is a statue but no guarantee this giant eel will come out only lucky visitors can see it.
Then in this place there is the ritual of throwing coins into the pool by turning the column while praying after each time and then throwing coins into the pool by throwing money back through the top of the head, not infrequently throwing us sometimes into the pool.
For sure this coin we buy in the area of the temple with a lower exchange rate and the money that is widely contained in the pool will be collected again for the improvement of the park area of the temple LINGSAR then we will go to the place where we worship Islam Wetutelu and to be clearer the story is better we just visit it and we ask Pak Sahyan.
Segara Anak pool in Narmada Park, right again public bathing pool and Mermaid Pool
Narmada Temple located in Narmada Park which is a cultural heritage site preserved by the NTB government under the auspices of the culture and tourism department is located approximately 10 km from the city of Mataram to the east in the village of Narmada.
Lembuak village exactly not far from the intersection of three main roads across the province and north of the road to Duman village or the path to Lingsar or Suranadi.
Swimming pool and Duyung (mermaid) pool in Narmada Park
This place is a legacy of the Mataram kingdom which was built in 1727 by the king of Anak Agung Ngurah Karangasem to be used as a place for the celebration of pakelem every full moon to 5 years of Caka (October – November) which covers 2 hectares and consists of Balai Loji building, petirtaan hall, Duyung Pond, Lake Segara Anak, the surrounding area Anyar Park which is now a residential area and Taman Peresak which has now become an orchard (until now durian Peresak is very popular)
Swimming pool and mermaid pool in Narmada Park
This place in the era of the 1980s was very popular to visit for the people of Lombok, especially on school holidays or after the Eid-ul-Fitr holidays by paying entrance tickets through the west side entrance of this park.
The main entrance that used to be on the north side is when this intersects with the main highway which is heavy traffic and only 20 meters away there is a traffic light (red light) which makes it impossible to be used as a queue to buy entrance tickets.
Di setiap tempat akan ada tulisan-tulisan seperti ini, yang menjelaskan tentang lokasi di taman Narmada
Every visitor who arrives at this park for those who come are outside guests or tourists from tour agents, there are already local guides who are ready to guide and explain all things in the Narmada park, including the history of the establishment of Narmada park and the temple in the park Narmada.
First you will be invited by a local guide to the Loji hall to look more closely at all parts of the park because the Loji hall consists of a hall that resembles a stage, this place was used by the king as a place to rest while enjoying the view of the park.
Seeing the Meru temple from a distance in Cakranegara, from here a local guide will explain clearly about the objects in the park before we are invited to the temple and Petirtaan hall.

Talking about the small island that surrounds the island of Lombok is very much, consisting of 43 small islands that surround the island of Lombok (there are still some unknown), for the small island the Lombok people call it ” Gili ” which adorns the sea when we are on the beach.
There are only 13 Gili that are ready to visit but in this case we will discuss only the popular Gili, including 7 Gili, Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno, Gili Air, Gili Nanggu, Gili Tangkong, Gili Sudak, Gili Kedis, Gili Gede, Gili Rengit Gili Kondo, Gili Merengke. Especially the series of the 3 most popular Gili is Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air which are located in the “northwest” of the island of Lombok.
These three Gili are very popular for foreign and domestic tourists, especially among people who like to walk, the most important among the three Gili is Gili Trawangan which has been used as an idol to be visited by Indonesian celebrities.
Even almost all Indonesian celebrities have visited Gili Trawangan for those who want to travel to Gili Trawangan at least prepare a decent budget because whatever we are going to buy must be expensive.
Likewise, Gili Meno is located in the southeast of Gili Trawangan or its position is flanked by Gili Trawangan and Gili Air, Gili Meno among the three Gili Islands is the smallest and has a saltwater lake on the west side of the island but the available accommodations are very a rare.
The road infrastructure that surrounds the island is only a little and does not construct only the footprints of dirt roads even on the west side only consists of white sandy beaches and 100% of the island is surrounded by white sand.
One of the three islands which has a bird park located in the heart of the island, there are no party activities at night, at night it is quieter and suitable for tourists who seek tranquility, but certainly the sea park that deletes this island is more beautiful than Gili Trawangan because the marine park is not disturbed by the existence of boat trips like the ones in the Gili Trawangan.
Gili Air is the source of the origin of the native people of the Gili people who originally were nomadic fishermen from Sulawesi (Bugis) who settled first on this island and developed into a group of large family groups Gili Air is not much different from other Gili (Trawangan and Meno).
Only compared to the two Gili, Gili Air has the best location for snorkeling among the three Gili, especially on the east side of the island where tourists can feed fish or feed fish while snorkeling.
For more details see on other pages of the blog that I have written specifically so that there will be no double writing for that enough I will provide a list of the names of Gili surrounding the island of Lombok but not all of the dyke listed as tourism destinations are just for us to know as an insight into the small islands.
That surrounds the island of Lombok but does not rule out the possibility that one by one the registered Gili will be developed into a Lombok tourism destination in the future, here are Gili names that have been known by their names.
REGISTERS OF 35 GILI NAMES THAT HAVE BEEN KNOWN THAT SURROUND THE LOMBOK ISLAND;
Kondo island is beautiful pearl in the east of Lombok. Well, this time we will visit Gili Kondo, well seen from the name Kondo like Japanese spelling? About the name Kondo, just try and ask the local people.
Someone knows the origin or reason until the island is named Kondo. The location of the island is located in the Northeast of the island of Lombok or north of the Kayangan harbor Ferry crossing to Sumbawa island.
Distance from the city of Mataram if drive car approximately 87 km through the main road or provincial roads, the constraints for the moment the road is a bit jammed.
The current vehicle volume in Lombok seems to increase but traffic jams often occur in the district Aikmel East Lombok after that the flow of vehicles can be a little loose and around Kayangan Ferry port to the north can be considered quiet.

There is an alternative route, through the North Batukliang sub-district but I do not recommend this because it is not commonly crossed and many intersections are a little confusing but for those who often drive on the island of Lombok there seems to be no Problem.
We have understood this road problem, let’s just talk to the Gili Kondo tourist attraction to the port located in Sambelia district.
From the T-junction to the right to the ferry harbor but we can just get a little to the left to Sambelia sub-district across the Pringgabaya sub-district but before arriving at the ferry port to Gili Kondo we stop by the Purba tree attraction about 7 km before the ferry port to Gili Kondo.
This tourist attraction is named the POHON PURBA LIAN LANGKA or LIAN LANGKA ANCIENT TREES about this later we will discuss specifically on other blogs. About 15-30 minutes we continue the journey to the ferry port.
Depart from Pasir Putih harbor to Gili Kondo
We continue the journey northward 7 km to the north later on the side of the road there is a writing crossing to Gili Kondo with 200 m arrow directing turn right, through the dirt road but before we see the steam power plant building with paint in blue and a little color red
After arriving at the port, a parking lot has been prepared by the manager to park the car with a zinc roof and for a motorbike under a shady tree, the parking fee is Rp 3,000 and for a Rp10,000 car for the high season or holiday season, the parking lot is a bit crowded often.
Crossing must wait for the boat back from Gili Kondo or other Gili because here are other destinations, around the island or Gili, there are 3 other islands, namely Gili Bidara, Gili Kapal, Gili Petagan.

To visit only one Gili just like Gili Kondo, the shuttle charter fee will be charged Rp 260,000 maximum of 10 passengers and if you want to visit 4 Gili the boat charter costs Rp 450.000 through Pasir Putih beach port.
In this location there is also a Navy post which also shows that there is a hot asphalt landing activity using barges and it appears above that an excavator is inserting hot asphalt material onto the truck because the main road when we passed there was a thickening of the asphalt road surface.
At the port location there are crossing ticket booths very simple, so remember when Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air are just developing, ticket counters are still using railings and equipped with loudspeakers as well as at this crossing port.
The difference is in Pasir Putih harbor there are lots of shade trees and there are several gazebos on the beach for the waiting room, there are also many who sell picnic-style meals, on the other hand there are also gazebos but the merchant’s place to serve customers who shop.
Resiko saat datang terlambat ke pulau ini semua gazebo sudah ditempati pengunjung lain
Before crossing over to Gili Kondo make sure you have bought drinking water because at the location or on the island of Gili Kondo, there is only one stall that can be more expensive.
I bought 1.5 ml of bottled water at this port quite expensive too Rp 8,000 even though only Rp 4,000 at home is awkward, especially if you buy water on the island of Gili Kondo it will be more expensive.
Just buy water, so count if you want to buy and buy another one, luckily, there were friends who bought cookies and mineral water and soft drinks in Mataram.
After being summoned from our departure loudspeakers by mentioning one of the names of the friends who bought the tickets we finally left, open the sandals on foot to the beach that is not choppy and also white sand, take a boat through the boat steps and leave.
Welcome welcome to Gili Kondo pier
The boat that we were traveling drove eastward towards Gili Kondo and it also appeared that the mainland of Sumbawa island was seen vaguely barren brown because the position of this tourist attraction was in the Alas Strait.
Crossing was only 10 minutes we would arrive at Gili Kondo, after midway it is only a little clearer this island, very clearly visible parking boats on the left side of the island means the port of Gili Kondo is on the northern side of the island.
The closer to the harbor, the color of green and blue striped water is very clear, on the ground there are simple buildings with wooden construction, there are some trees and on the other side there are grasslands, after arriving on this island we will be greeted by writing WELCOME to GILI KONDO please relax enjoying this island, here are some gazebos lined up but if the visiting season is crowded please raise your heart, just sit in the shade of the trees.

This island is not very well arranged if there are investors who are willing to manage the island or the regional government budget for tourism development. This location will certainly be more beautiful, because just like this is amazingly beautiful, before this place was once managed by “Perama Tour”
This location was once used as a place for conservation of coral reefs because of each Perama Tour that aims to Komodo island, it makes a program for its tourist guests to donate coral reef replacements.
So that the island was previously called or has another name, “Perama Resort” until finally disputed with the surrounding population and finally the island is managed by the local sub-district government.
On this island there are already a number of facilities for visitors including those mentioned above, there are a gazebo, there is a musholla or little mosquemade of wood, there is a place to wait while the boat comes to pick up, there are also date palm trees.
Once it was fruitful said a friend who has been to this location before, but the fruit was small, he said, this date palm tree had a new stem as high as a knee while the leaves spread like porcupine feathers.

The island is very friendly for the arrival of turtles because this location is very quiet if the night is very close, it is possible that the turtles will come to lay their eggs for this reason the government is protecting this location from taking turtles or stealing turtles in this location.
There is no reason for justification turtles because they are threatened with extinction, therefore they are protected by law in 1990, prohibiting any trade in turtles alive or dead including parts.
Even if you see turtles laying eggs should be reported NTB BKSDA (0370) 627851 there are 6 types of turtles located in Indonesian waters, among others: leather-back turtles, loggerhead turtles, green turtles, flat-back turtles, hawks-bill sea turtles and Lekang turtles.
If we walk around the island, it is pretty good to spend 30 minutes, said the boatman, who I asked when I anchored the anchor, on the beach there were many people who snorkeled.
Here at the Pasir Putih harbor I saw a place for snorkeling equipment rental, small children too a lot of bathing on the beach because it is not choppy, choppy but there is little black sand on the island opposite Gili Bidara, you can see that there is a wooden structure but instead there is a tile roof.
Musholla di Gili Kondo hanya 30 meter dari pesisir pantai
This new mosque is also made with the concept of an open-stilt house with roofed thatch that still looks new too and this mosque is named AL-MUKHLISIN which means I don’t know, I must open an Arabic dictionary first.
Just before our story arrived here, now we have to wait for the same boat pickup, he said later at 4 pm, Pak Adi (boatman) will pick us up, but after 4 o’clock there is also no Pak Adi boat seen, we finally call Mr. Adi via telephone number in the ticket.
Uh, it turns out that the pick-up from the RIZKY boat saved from that boatman raised his hand towards us, so it seems like this time we have to go back to the edge immediately because at this location there is no restaurant what else is the restaurant so we were hungry from just eating bread , pastries and pineapple.
Stick fight performance One of the performances in Lombok that made it amusing for those who watched it was the show ”Peresean”, a Peresean performance was very enjoyed by certain people in Lombok, although this performance looked very violent.
Not to forget Caucasians-Caucasians also want to try it.
Actually this show stick fight performance highly upholds sportsmanship in fighting using a bat rattan which is given asphalt at the end of this rattan.
In the competition can already be imagined if a piece of rattan that is both ends lined by highway asphalt material landed on the head or on the back.
It is very tense for the audience, but the spirit of the fighters must win the match. Getting prizes of towels, money and cloth is not the goal but you have to win.
Lombok Stick Fight Performance
This game consists of 2 Pepadu or 2 fighters who are freely chosen by a Pekembar (Promotor) or leader group or can also as a trainer, match opponent who consists of one person in each corner or group of fighters and one referee who leads the match by blowing out the referee whistle for the start of the match or stopping.
Pekembar can be interpreted by the committee who also helps a referee to find a fighter by bringing Ende or Shields and rattan sticks or sticks to someone while hitting a shield or ende.
Once appointed with a ruler or rattan stick, a fighter who is ready to stand after standing shield is struck once, meaning that he has found someone who is ready to compete, then offered in the other corner by another pair in the same way.

Usually the enemy or his opponent will be considered the same big physical form, but not infrequently there is also one of Pepadu who is not brave with the opponent appointed by the pekembar,
Pepadu who is ready to compete will stand until he gets his opponent after the deal then the two Pepadu or fighters will be told to come to the front of the arena to undress then fitted with dodot or custom cloth and the head tied with a Sapuk or blankon in Java.
The match consists of 3 rounds of participants will be declared KO losers if hit by the head and bleed or participants drop the stick 3 times, if the participant wants to end the match or give up having to let go of the stick.
The rules in the game are not allowed to hit the opponent by sticking the stick or back hand position like in badminton games, the match will be led by a referee using a signal and whistle sound.
Each winner will be given a prize depending on the committee’s agreement but in general the prize is usually in the form of a towel or cloth and the loser will be given an envelope containing a modest amount of money.

The Pepadu can consist of camps that stand in the corner of the ring that mingles with the audience before the match the pair starts around to see the people in the front row.
So the people sitting in front of the ring must be ready to be fighters.
Because when 2 pieces come towards him the one who sits at the front will prioritize.
These events or competitions are usually held at the celebration of Independence Day or before the celebration of the Prophet’s birthday, it can also be at certain celebrations.
the game will be accompanied by the sound of the Gamelan or Traditional Orchestra to increase the more lively atmosphere as well as to give more enthusiasm or enthusiasm to Pepadu or fighters. Besides that, the sound of the Gamelan will also be able to entertain the audience.
Who come flocked to buy admission tickets, usually the audience room that buys tickets will be fenced off with woven bamboo beds, the matches are generally held on the soccer field and can also be in the hall.
Some fighters aside from demonstrating the skill of dancing while hearing the accompaniment of Gamelan as well which certainly shows the technique of playing, and which certainly must be able to entertain the audience.
It is not uncommon for fighters to be aroused in competition and this is where the referee’s role must be meticulously leading the match and having to stop matches.
Matches as well drown is assessed for the assessment of the referee and will be given a prize immediately after the match is valid for all matches that either drown or end in losing or winning.
It is not uncommon for participants to finish competing with bruises or bleeding on their backs or other limbs, except those affected by bleeding heads will be considered KO. Participants are strongly required to compete by not wearing clothes.
Must use Sapuk or Blangkon and must use Dodot or cloth like traditional cloth, for true fighters it is very visible how to play, can entertain while dancing, can be funny with gestures and which is definitely rare sapai injured, some there are also participants who are trusted to use kanuragan but this is difficult for us to discuss.
