Exploring Blang Padang Park // A park that is a tourist center in the afternoon

Good night to all my beloved hive friends ♥️

When traveling to the city of Banda Aceh, it will not be complete if you do not visit this one park, the park called Blang Padang is still a very crowded park, especially in the afternoon. There are several reasons why this park is very crowded, namely because the location of this park is in the middle of the city, and the place is very spacious and the place is very cool because there are many large trees growing in this park.

In addition, in this park there are also several fields that can be used by visitors for sports such as soccer fields, basketball courts, volleyball courts and even jogging tracks in the afternoon are available in this park, so it is not surprising that many visitors want to visit this park because in addition to healing, visitors can also exercise here.

Look at some of the pictures that I have shared above, then you will definitely be able to feel how calm this park is, the large trees can block the sun directly onto the ground and the wind that blows makes the atmosphere cool which is of course cool.

This park is so vast that it is split into two, but I don't know the name of the park next to it, considering that during my visit this time I only played on the edge of the park.And I just walked on the path at the edge of the park, for some reason I felt lazy to explore the whole park, maybe because I was hungry.

However, even though I only walked along the edge of the park, I could still see how vast the park was, so that even a wide field could be a beautiful sight for me at that time.

Especially on Sundays, this park will definitely be very crowded with visitors, even when I visited this park on a weekday it still looked crowded with visitors. And in this park I can also see a lot of residents' activities, especially selling, and those who sell have also obtained permission from the authorities.

At that time I just kept walking and only stopped for a moment when I wanted to take a few pictures, the large size of the park made me feel a little tired, especially since the sun was very hot at that time.

But there was one building that really caught my attention from a distance.

Actually, I really wanted to visit this place directly, but my body was so weak that I felt a little lazy to visit the building, but I didn't bother and chose to continue walking along the edge of this park.

And on the side of the road there are also many small monuments, and each monument is probably only about 40 meters away and these monuments are almost on every road in this park.

I don't know what kind of monument this is, and on each monument there is a symbol of each country in the world, and underneath there is also writing, but maybe because this monument is old, the writing has started to fade and is difficult to read.

Of course I was very curious about the small monuments, so I tried to find information about the monument, until there was someone who was also passing this road, so I immediately approached the person and asked about the monuments, a little information that I managed to get about this monument is that this monument was made as a form of gratitude to every country that had helped Aceh when it was hit by the tsunami in 2004, therefore every monument must have a national symbol.

At first I didn't know why I felt so lazy, but it immediately made me realize when I saw several food stalls that were also available in this park, it turned out that hunger was what made me feel weak and lazy.

I've visited this park maybe three times, but I haven't explored this place so far, and I just found out that in this park there is a food stall like this. My hunger was no longer unbearable so I immediately walked towards the food stall to order food first.

After ordering my food, I immediately looked for a suitable chair as a place to rest. While I was resting, I also took the time to take some pictures of the surrounding atmosphere in front of the food stall.

Since the food here is mostly fast food, I didn't have to wait long, and once my food was ready, I immediately dived into it.

and it turned out to be true that after eating, my body felt fresh and energetic again, but I still chose to rest at this food stall first, because the place is cool because there are lots of big trees around this place.

I rested for about 1 hour at this food stall and because I felt it was enough, I immediately rushed to continue exploring this park.

And sure enough, as I had previously suspected, I had reached the end of the park, even reaching the highway. My initial intention was to explore the entire park, but once I reached the highway, I immediately changed my mind because I had already visited this park before.

So I decided to leave this park immediately and continue my journey to visit some other parks.

Well, those are some pictures and stories from me in this post, I really hope that this post can provide entertainment for all of my friends. All of these pictures are purely my own, I took this picture using an Infinix 10 Pro cellphone and edited this picture using the Lightroom application.

See you again in my next post ♥️
