Views from tomb of Poteumeureuhom Daya

Continuing  from Views from Puncak Geurute.


Next we went to the tomb complex of Poteumeureuhom, king and founder of the kingdom of Daya


It faces a gulf and a nice stretch of sea...

















The tomb itself is located on top of a hill.


. So there are many nice views to be savoured from many different angles...









Views from Puncak Geurute

Continuing from The waves at Meunasah Lhok.


After the beach the road starts to climb up twisting and turning on some hillsides.





Then you can see wooden buildings beside.


Time for our next stop...





Perched precariously on a stretch up a hill called Puncak Geurute the wooden buildings are actually stalls offering superb views of the surroundings...














For information this is the 1,991th article in this blogspot.



























The waves at Meunasah Lhok

Continuing from Morning in Lhoong.


About 6-7 km later the road opens up close to a beach




  The sight was so beautiful that it prompted us to stop and go out for a better look.








The waves looked nice and alluring...











This was our best look so far of the mighty Indian Ocean since we arrived from Malaysia the previous day...








Morning in Lhoong

Peace be upon you. Today 16th September is Malaysia Day. On to the storytelling for the 2nd day of the Aceh and north Sumatera round trip 28th August till 4th September.


Early Thursday morning 29th August 2019. The sun was about to rise...


We were looking from outside a house at Nurin al Mansoriah Complex where we spent the night at.





It is situated in a district called Lhoong some 50 km south of the city of Banda Aceh.


After having a simple breakfast we left the place to continue our journey...








As we went out we could see the complex is nestled betweens some hills...
