Western Part of Sumatra: The Beauty of Indonesian's Exotic Nature in Pariaman

There is nowhere to enjoy this special occasion other than in Pantai Panyu, Pariaman. You only have to be there to enjoy the scenery and the experience. Moreover, near the beach, the visitors can also visit a mangrove forest, but it's too bad that the mangrove forest has not been really active since the Corona Virus Pandemic.

But, that's not an excuse to not visit the heavenly beach. This is not Bali, but Pariaman in West Sumatra, surely it offers different things with the ones that Bali has. It will certainly be a whole new experience to those who visit it.

After strolling around the beach and releasing as many turtles as you want (in a reasonable number of course), the toursits can also buy the iconic traditional snack of the city, which is ladu arai pinang. It has a crunchy texture and has been the specialty of the city since forever. There are a lot of people sell it around the city, in the market, super market, even on the side of the road. So, make sure that you experience the taste of it.

In the end, this place is totally worth visiting. The tourists got many things to do while in this city. Another good thing is, the city is only 2 hours from the capital city of West Sumatra province, Padang. Whenever you land on Padang, you can go directly to the Pantai Penyu to get the whole new experiences. What are you waiting for? Come to Pantai Penyu and release your very own Penyu!
