Tugas Kepariwisataan 10 Parangtritis Beach
Yogyakarta have so many tourist attraction places, one of them is the beach. Parangtritis is the most popular beach in Yogyakarta, Central Java, Indonesia. Parangtritis offers varied tourism experiences. Everyone who came to this beach may enjoy the scenery of the beach from the horseback or from the horse-cart and see the Peh Cun festival with its extraordinary standing eggs attraction. Not only local tourist came to this place, but many people from abroad visited it.
Parangtritis beach has own story for villagers of Yogyakarta. Even The naming of the beach has its own history. Hundreds years ago, someone named Dipokusumo, who was a fugitive of Majapahit Kingdom, came to this area to meditate. When he saw water dripping from the crack of the coral reef, he named this area 'Parangtritis', originating from the word ‘parang’ (stone) and ‘tumaritis’ (water drops). The beach close to the area was then named the same and villagers of Yogyakarta believe this story.
In addition to being the most popular beach in Yogyakarta, Parangtritis is worth visiting since it is closely related to such tourism objects as the Sultan Palace in Yogyakarta city, Parangkusumo Beach to the west of it, and the Merapi area at the north part of Yogyakarta. Located around 27 kilometers from the city center, Parangtritis Beach is also part of the Queen of South's authority. Visitors can enjoy cooler water and swimming, they enjoying underwater scenery there together with their families.
After you enjoying the scenery of Parangtritis beach from the seashore, you can leave for Langse Cave for other experience. On the earth road leading to the cave, you can look westwards to see Parangtritis from different appearance. The high waves rushing to the shore will look silvery under the sun, and will look golden by the sunset time. Yogyakarta got the opportunity to see this exotic view during its visit a couple of days ago.
