VCTN : DAY 1-EAST BELITONG

I went to Belitong with my besties.. We landed at Main Belitong on 11.00 WIB, quite early because the flight from Jakarta (Soekarno Hatta International Airport) to Tanjung Pandan only took 40 minutes. The weather was not good, It was cloudy and the rain were pattering.

We decided to had lunch at local Restaurant, called Belitong Timpo Duluk. Small and nice restaurant with strong vintage ambience

After we had lunch, we continued our trip to East Belitong to visit Muhammadiyah's Primary School Gantong from Laskar Pelangi The Movie and Andrea Hirata's Words Museum.
I was moved when I saw the Muhammadiyah's Primary School.. Even the building was only a property for the movie, it was felt so real. From that humble place, born a magnificent adventure.. So fascinating..

Not so far from the school, there were the Museum. The Highlight was the coffee shop inside the Museum, called Kopi Kuli. The coffee was cooked in a unique way, they boiled it with a stove that made me so curious so I decided to go for one drink.. and guess what? It was delicious!

When we finished having coffee, the rain was poured so hard that we decided to went to Manggar, the main city of East Belitong also known as the 1000 Coffee Shop City. We went to this coffee shop which was located on the lakeside, ordered another coffee and a bowl of noodle.. Too bad my camera wasn't working there..

When the rain was stopped, we went to one of the beaches of East Belitong called Serdang Beach.. Nice beach but unfortunately we couldn't spent time there any longer due to another rain

We ended our first day trip at Mutiara Restaurant to had a dinner. We ordered stone crab which was so big and fresh and yummy and I couldn't stop munched it.. haha
