Haiii, seperti biasa saya mau post tugas bahasa inggris saya. Kali ini saya akan share tentang “Amazing Place” yaitu Situ Cisanti, karena saya juga pernah datang langsung ke tempat ini waktu saya liburan makanya ini juga termasuk tugas “Holiday”. Okee langsung aja!



On this holiday, i went together with my family. Besides to visiting Situ Cisanti we also want to visit our former neighbor who moved several years ago to this Cibeureum area, their home just a few meters from Situ Cisanti. We only need less than five minutes to go to Cisanti from their homes by car.
After we arrived and parked up then we were charged money for Rp.5000, - per person by the officer about it,  i think that money for the cleanliness because there is no official ticket to enter the territory of Cisanti Lake. I was enchanted by the beauty of the lake, and very cool air. My family and I held a mat and sit there for lunch sidelines. After eating, my cousin and I went for a walk around there to take some photos.
Cisanti lake is located in the village of Tarumajaya, district Kertasari, Bandung regency. This lake is upstream of the Citarum River. From the information i got, before the 2001, this place is still forested. The ground was wet, because the water out of the spring is here. Then in 2001 after the lake was made, so there are a lot of people fishing here. Many tourists who come here, there are just visiting, a pilgrimage to the tomb which is located around the Lake area, even to camping.
Especially after the road leading to the lake repaired in 2012, the more people who visit this Site. During the journey to get to this lake I was treated to incredible views, in addition to the rice field terraces are also lined agricultural fields planted with potatoes, leek, carrots and many other vegetables at the foot of Mount Rakutak or people often call Si Rawing. Around the lake is surrounded by mountains and forests, with trees towering eucalyptus with skin that was peeling.
This lake has an area of ​​approximately 8 ha with calm water. Here there is also a small dock and boat. We can also enjoy the view from the middle of the lake with a boat engine by paying 10,000, -. As I said earlier, there is also a lot of people who are fishing because there is indeed a lot of fish, in addition to endemic native fish such as mujaer, paray, and bogo, also sows the seeds of many new fish such as carp, tilapia, and nilem by agencies and environmentalists.
Cisanti lake is upstream Citarum River. Citarum River is the largest river with a length of 269 kilometers where the stream divides 12 counties and cities in the province of West Java, which is also used by local residents for domestic use, agriculture, livestock and their industry. Citarum River basin is also a major source of hydroelectric power in the three areas of West Java is Saguling, Cirata and Jatiluhur. Processed products in the form of electricity that illuminates the lives and activities of people in Java and Bali. And last but not least, the Citarum is also a source of drinking water for the people of Jakarta.
Cisanti lake located the foot of Mount Wayang is formed of several springs that flow from the mountain anyhow. There are seven major springs that flow into the lakes, namely:

1. Cikahuripan springs (Pangsiraman)
2. Mastaka Citarum springs
3. Cihaniwung springs
4. Cisadane springs
5. Cikawedukan springs
6. Cikoleberes springs
7. Cisanti springs

I successfully surrounding it with more than two hours, quite tiring but the beauty of the lake is actually paying my fatigue and continue to eliminate excited my curiosity before it can surrounding that has a wavy shape.
           
Did not too many people are visiting at the time, only a few families and many local people who were fishing. I also met with other visitors who camped alongside the lake. Did not feel the day was the afternoon, my family and getting ready to leave lake and go to our neighbor's farm was not too far away from there.
After that we had to go up to a small mountain or hill surrounding a tea garden, in addition there is also a tea garden carrots, potatoes, and onion leaves. We also tried to pluck tea, carrots uproot plants, and harvesting leeks. Although after that we were dirty, but this is the holiday most enjoyable and unforgettable! After getting quite a lot of vegetables, I headed to my neighbor's house and get cleaned up there. Then after sunset we said goodbye and came home with lots of vegetables.
