the jewel of eastern Bali

Page 9: The Journey July 2014

“ 9 THE JOURNEY JUL 2014

Bali, a land with towering volcanoes and pristine rivers flowing out onto turquoise water of the Indonesian seas. Its fertility not only brought welfare to its residents but also sparked wars between Bali’s many small kingdoms, fighting for as many lands to

control as possible. At the eastern coast of the island a kingdom saw its rise and decline over the course of centuries in a rather idyllic setting, nestled between Mount Agung – the island’s tallest volcano and most sacred place – and Lombok Strait.

Karangasem was a small kingdom throughout most of its history, often annexed by other more powerful Balinese kingdoms or those from neighboring islands. From the 18th to early 19th century, however, the kingdom saw a union with its counterpart in Lombok, often referred as Karangasem Sasak. In the early 19th century Karangasem Sasak’s sphere of influence grew significantly, successfully defeating smaller kingdoms on the island and leaving the Kingdom of Mataram as its sole rival.

built in accordance to Tri Hita Karana principle, a Balinese cultural system which keeps the social fabric intact and

harmonious with the nature.

Page 10: The Journey July 2014

10 THE JOURNEY JUL 2014

Seeing a big opportunity from this rivalry, two European traders – a Dane and a Briton – took advantage by selling weapons and ammunition to the belligerents. Exacerbated by the involvement of the King of Karangasem Bali who saw the emergence of Karangasem Sasak as a threat to his own kingdom, the latter was finally defeated by the Kingdom of Mataram, a new ally to the Balinese kingdom.

A few decades later both Karangasem Bali and the Mataram fell into the Dutch influence, creating unprecedented years without wars after centuries of turbulent history. Thanks to the newly introduced Dutch administrative systems – Rechstreeks bestuud gebied, Zelfbesturend

landschappen and Stedehouder – order was in place, to some extent. During that period the King of Karangasem, I Gusti Gede Bagus Jelantik, commissioned the construction of water palaces and gardens at the eastern part of Bali.

Incorporating Dutch, Balinese and Chinese architectural features, it took 12 years to complete the main water palace. Designed by two architects – a Dutch and a Chinese – Taman Ujung Sukasada, as it is officially called, was also built in accordance to Tri Hita Karana principle, a Balinese cultural system which keeps the social fabric intact and harmonious with the nature.

At its heart, lies a pavilion built in Dutch 20th century building style,

Page 11: The Journey July 2014

11 THE JOURNEY JUL 2014

embellished with Balinese sculptures and ornaments, surrounded by a rectangular pool. The seemingly floating residence has been used by the royal family of Karangasem since then, stretching out a staggering 400 hectares. However years later that number was reduced to merely 10 hectares due to the land reform following Indonesia’s independence from the Netherlands in 1945.

In 1963 the water palace was decimated by the eruption of Mount Agung, the biggest eruption of the volcano modern Balinese society has ever witnessed by far. 15 years later the derelict palace was further damaged by the earthquakes in northern and eastern parts of the island. For decades Taman Ujung Sukasada ruins were abandoned, until 1994 when the government decided to start detailed surveys on what was once a beautiful royal compound.

Soon after the Asian Financial Crisis the World Bank funded the first phase of Taman Ujung Sukasada restoration project, one of the projects the organization approved the Indonesian government to carry out. In the subsequent few years the palace was restored bit by bit, starting from the fence and the pools in 1999 to the pavilions in 2003. One year later Taman Ujung Sukasada was finally

reopened to the public, although the ownership of the entire palace grounds remains in the hands of Karangasem royal family.

While most of the buildings and gardens that make Taman Ujung Sukasada were gentrified and rejuvenated, one building, however, was left untouched by the restoration project. The ruins of Bale Kapal, literally the boat pavilion, still stand at one side of the complex, overlooking the other pavilions below. Possibly built as a viewing platform to watch the ships sailing through the waters between Bali and Lombok, Bale Kapal is a testament of the indiscriminate power of Mother Nature that once almost wiped out the palace entirely. The same power which shaped Bali’s exquisite landscapes, ironically.

12 THE JOURNEY JUL 2014

In 1951 a pastor, who is also an archeologist named Theodore Verhoven, found this cave. Then in

1986 this cave was opened for the public travelers ‘till now. Unfortunately a tourist sight covering 19 hectares is not known yet. Most of the foreign tourists came from Europe.

Batu Cermin cave is set within an impressive prominent rock formation near Labuan Bajo. Through a hole in the cave rays of light find their ways into the caves inside walls where they perform a spectacular show of reflected sunlight. This fascinating effect is cause by slick which looks like a mirror on the rock surfaces and that’s what is reflecting the light. Hence the caves name “Batu

Cermin”, which means “Mirror Rock” in Indonesian.

Batu Cermin is located in a fantastic natural environment with an excellent panoramic view over the mainland and the island nearby. It’s surrounded by forest where long tailed monkeys and wild boars live.

This cave is situated 4 kilometers east of Labuan Bajo. You can use public transport, cars and motorcycles that will take you to the cave in about 30 minutes. Once in the cave you have to pay admission. Also you should bring a flashlight and helmet for safety while you are in the cave. Walk about 15 minutes into the cave and you will enjoy the view of the woods and the rocks.

Eka Suendra Putra ; growing up in a family of travelers, he is now dreaming of traveling every inch of Indonesia.

a war between people, but rather a tradition passed down through generations in the Munggu Village. A tradition is believed to drives any kind of disaster from the village.

And since the tradition was banned then appeared in the form of catastrophic outbreak caused the sudden death of several citizens, in the end the tradition held back to drive the disaster away. However, the use of the spear has been replaced with wood because it was considered too dangerous.

BORObudura stairway to Nirvana

Situated on a dense, lush hillside, of this Javanese valley. Framed by volcanoes, distant mist, and wide

paddy fields: calm and spiritual silence descends the atmosphere in the largest Buddhist monument in the world, the Borobudur Temple.

Located in Magelang, Central Java in Indonesia about 25 miles (40 kilometers) from Yogyakarta, the monument is decorated with 2,672 bas-relief panels and 504 Buddhist statues at 95-foot-height (29-meter). Borobudur serves as both a shrine and a pilgrimage site. In 1991, Borobudur was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

There is no written record of who built the Borobudur or of its intended purpose. Borobudur was likely founded around 800 CE around during the 8th and 9th centuries, it is during the peak of the Sailendra dynasty in central Java. The construction has been estimated to have taken 75 years and been completed during the reign of Samaratungga in 825 CE.

Borobudur is believed to have been abandoned in the 14th century after the decline of the Buddhist and Hindu kingdoms in the Java region, the mega structure then laid hidden for centuries under layers of volcanic ash and jungle

growth. In 1814, Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles rediscovered the site. Due to the danger of collapse, he could not unearth all galleries. Although the discovery was only a fractal portion, Raffles is still credited with the monument’s recovery, as one who had brought it to the world’s attention.

Following the discovery, several restorations attempted during 1907 and 1911 by the Dutch colonial. But due to the lack of funding the project then stopped. Later between 1975 and 1982 the site was extensively restored with the help of UNESCO and the Indonesian government. Borobudur is revered for its artistic and engineering beauty as well as its Buddhist symbolism and spiritual importance; Borobudur had been restored to its former glory.

Page 21: The Journey July 2014

Borobudur again facing another test on 2010, it was heavily affected by the eruption of Mount Merapi in October and November 2010. Volcanic ash from Merapi fell on the temple complex; a layer of ash up to 2.5 centimeters (1 in) fell on the temple, also killing nearby vegetation, with experts fearing that the acidic ash might damage the historic site. The temple complex was closed from 5 to 9 November to clean up the ash fall and once again Borobudur survived the test of nature.

The structure of Borobudur lends itself to the telling of a story as visitors follow a path circumnavigating the monument while viewing the scenes of the relief panels found in the system

of stairways and corridors. The path consists of six square platforms topped by three circular levels, which parallel the three levels of Buddhist cosmology—Kamadhatu (the world of desire), Rupadhatu (the world of forms), and Arupadhatu (the world of formlessness). The entire Borobudur ground plan taking the form of a Mandala, a spiritual and ritual symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism, representing the Universe.

On the top level of the monument there is a main dome surrounded by 72 Buddha statues seated inside perforated stupa. Although most visitors are surprised to see the large empty stupa found on the top level, the emptiness represents the world of

formlessness, the state of nirvana which Buddhists view as their desired spiritual state.

As mentioned earlier, Borobudur was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Not just a heritage to Buddhist or Hindus, not just for Indonesia people, but also to the entire world, to humanity it self. A heritage for all of us to cherish, so it won’t be perished and stand the test of time.

Wayang beberRelies on scroll-painted presentations of the stories that being told, With Each scene in the scrolls represents a story or part of a story. Wayang beber has strong similarities to narratives in the form of illustrated ballads that were common at annual fairs in medieval and early modern Europe.

Wayang karucilOriginally from eastern Java, they are made from thin pieces of wood instead of leather, and, like wayang kulit figures, are used as shadow puppets. During battle scenes, the wayang figures often sustain considerable damage, much to the amusement of the public.

Wayang topengAlmost similar to Wayang wong, Wayang Topeng is played by using a mask (Topeng) that covers the face. Wayang Topeng in Javanese culture has a diverse development, both as ritual performances or as a performance art.

Wayang wongliterally means “human wayang”, is a type of Javanese theatrical performance with themes taken from episode of Ramayana or Mahabharata. Performances are stylised, reflecting Javanese court culture. It represents the epitome of Javanese aesthetic unity. It is total theatre involving dance, drama, music, visual arts, language, and literature. A highly cultured sense of formality permeates every aspect of its presentation.

Wayang KulitWayang kulit, or shadow puppets, are without a doubt the best known of the Indonesian wayang. Kulit means skin, and refers to the leather construction of the puppets that are carefully chiselled with very fine tools and supported with carefully shaped buffalo horn handles and control rods. The city of Surakarta (Solo) and city of Yogyakarta in Central Java are most famous for its crafters. Regional styles of shadow puppets can also be found in Bali produces more compact and naturalistic figures, and Lombok has figures representing real people.

Ketupat is made from rice that has been wrapped in a woven palm leaf pouch and boiled. As the rice cooks, the grains

expand to fill the pouch and the rice becomes compressed. This method of cooking gives the ketupat its characteristic form and texture of a rice dumpling.

Ketupat is cut open, its skin (woven palm leaf) being removed, the inner rice cake is cut in pieces, and served as staple food, as the replacement of plain steamed rice. It usually eaten with rendang, opor ayam, sayur labu (jicama soup), sambal goreng ati (liver in sambal) or served as an accompaniment to satay (chicken or beef or lamb in skewers) or gado-gado (mixed vegetables with peanut sauce).

Ketupat is also used as the replacement of plain steamed rice in gado-gado, karedok, or pecel. It also used as main ingredient in Sundanese and Javanese dish kupat tahu (ketupat, tofu, and beansprouts served in peanut sauce).

In Java and most of Indonesia, ketupat is linked to Islamic tradition of lebaran (Eid ul-Fitr), in accordance to asking for forgiveness tradition during lebaran. The crossed weaving of palm leafs symbolizes mistakes and sins committed by human beings, and the inner whitish rice cake symbolize purity and deliverance from sins after observing Ramadhan fast, prayer and rituals.

The Re-Timer is the ultimate jet lag tool. Worn like a pair of (admittedly odd-looking) glasses, the Re-Timer emits a soft green light into your eyes. The thinking is that when worn at certain hours of the day, it works to reset your Circadian rhythm (body clock). It can even train you wake up earlier when worn for 30

minutes every day. Anything that makes getting out of bed easier is fine in our books.

Mesmerizing Indonesian Archipelago

Indonesia is a huge archipelago consisting of thousands of islands that stretch from the westernmost point of Sabang to the easternmost point

of Merauke. From Miangas island the northmost to Rote island the southmost, it spread to more than 17.508 islands with over 1 million km2 making Indonesia a massive sand box to explore. This huge archipelago is endowed with a beauty of diverse cultures and nature with distinctive flora and fauna.

There are eight major islands or island groups in this enormous chain. The largest landmasses consist of Sumatra, Java,

Kalimantan (Borneo), Sulawesi (Celebes) and Irian Jaya (the western half of Papua New Guinea). The smaller islands fall into two main groups: the Molluccas to the northeast, and the lesser Sunda chain east of Bali. Bali is a unique island, which for a number of reasons can be put into a class of its own.

The favourable condition have attracted a great number of visitors to Indonesia. Visiting Indonesia means seeing and experienceing the unique diverse cultural and astonishing natural beauties that this country has to offer and explore.
