Good evening to all my friends.Wherever you are, I hope you are well. 😘β™₯️

The journey to the Bate Ilik tourist attraction was a truly enjoyable part of my experience. I rode my motorcycle along winding roads in Aceh, taking in the beautiful natural scenery along the route.

I started my journey early in the morning, aiming to reach the Batik tourist attraction, located on the banks of a rocky river. I evaluated the road, which always passed through authentic rural areas with green rice fields and lush trees.

I felt very relaxed, enjoying the fresh morning air and the enchanting natural scenery. I stopped briefly along the way to buy drinks and simply relax.

The stall sold ice teler and delicious Acehnese snacks. I enjoyed the short break while chatting with the new vendor about tourist destinations in the area. After a short rest, I continued my journey to Bate Ilik. The road began to get a little uphill and winding, but the views became increasingly beautiful. I felt very fortunate to have enjoyed a journey like this.

After a while of traveling, passing through winding roads and beautiful natural scenery, I arrived at the Batee Ilik tourist attraction. I felt very relieved and happy to have reached my desired destination.

Upon arrival at Batee Ilik, I was immediately greeted by a charming rocky river. The clear water flowed between large rocks, creating a very calm and beautiful atmosphere. I was immediately impressed by the natural beauty of Batee Ilik.

Upon arrival, I was immediately greeted by small stalls located on the banks of the rocky river. I had to park my motorbike in front of the stalls and get off past them.

Enjoying the view, I walked along the riverbank, enjoying the sound of flowing water and the unique view of large rocks. Many other visitors were also enjoying the natural beauty here, some swimming, some relaxing on the riverbank, and still others taking photos.

Activities around Batee Ilik include food stalls: stalls selling local specialties and drinks, perfect for capturing the view while enjoying the scenery.

Local visitors and tourists. Many local visitors and some tourists came to enjoy the beauty of Batee Ilik and also saw many Instagrammable spots around the rocky river.

I walked closer to the stalls lined up neatly around the Batee Ilik tourist attraction. These stalls sold a variety of local Acehnese food and drinks that looked delicious. The mouth-watering aromas made me want to try some of the dishes.

The stalls in Batee Ilik looked very comfortable, with some having riverside seating so visitors could enjoy their meals while overlooking the rocky river.

I also saw people enjoying swimming in the Batee Ilik River. The clear, cool water looked very inviting. I saw small children playing happily in the water, while several adults also seemed to be enjoying themselves.

I ordered two dishes at a cozy food stall on the banks of the Batee Ilik River: fried noodles and cold Kuku Bima. I was very curious about the taste of Acehnese fried noodles and wanted to try cold Kuku Bima as a refreshing drink in the slightly warm weather.

The fried noodles I ordered looked delicious, with a mix of vegetables, meat, and bamboo typical of Aceh. I immediately noticed the aroma that transformed the area. The fried noodles were served with just the right amount of spiciness.

This cold drink, served with plenty of ice cubes, was very refreshing. It's a traditional drink quite popular in several regions, and the cold version is perfect for drinking in a place like Batee Ilik.

I looked out at the dense forest surrounding the Batee Ilik River. This forest looked very beautiful and natural, with tall trees growing densely along the riverbanks. The forest atmosphere added to the natural and peaceful feel of this tourist spot.

The beauty of the forests around the Bate Ilik River was very green and lush. Large trees with dense leaves created a shaded canopy in some areas, such as where I was sitting. I saw several types of trees growing there, perhaps including local trees typical of Aceh.

I sat there relaxing, enjoying the atmosphere of the forest and river. The combination of the sound of the flowing river and the freshness of the forest created a very calming atmosphere. I felt very close to nature and to this place.

I needed to leave the Batee Iliek tourist attraction after enjoying the natural beauty and refreshing atmosphere for a while. I felt very satisfied and happy after spending my time there.

I finished my healthy meal and drink order at the food stall, paid the bill, and thanked the vendor. I always walked back to where I parked my motorbike.
