Parangtritis Beach


Parangtritis Beach is a tourist beach on the southern coast of Java in the Bantul Regency within the province of the Yogyakarta Special Region. There is a road to the area which is about 30 km south of the city of Yogyakarta. This beach is located south of Parangkusumo Beach, which is also a mainstay of tourism in Bantul Regency. Parangtritis Beach has become a tourism icon in Yogyakarta because this beach is a favorite tourist destination in Yogyakarta. This beach is often visited by local and foreign tourists.

Quite large crowds of mainly local tourists visit Parangtritis over weekends and at holidays. Larger tourist buses as well as various types of cheaper minibuses ply the route to the beach from Yogyakarta. There are local tourist facilities at Parangtritis including parking arrangements, modest hotels which provide visitors with places to change and shower, and small restaurants. Often small ponies or horse-drawn carts can be hired for rides along the beach. Tourists also visit some of the various caves and springs in the cliffs and hills near Parangtritis, such as the Tapan cave and the Beji spring, which are quite close to the beach. Parangtritis is sometimes said to be a place to meet the legendary Nyai Loro Kidul (also known as Ratu Kidul) or 'Queen of the South'. Local folklore warns visitors not to wear green clothes or the queen is likely to try to entice the wearer into the ocean to drown. The beach is not really a good swimming beach. Drownings are not uncommon at Parangtritis, partly because many Indonesians have never had the opportunity to learn proper swimming techniques at beach and partly because channels, strong rips and sizable waves often occur off the beach.

Since 2014 Mount Prau visited by many climbers who want to see directly the sunrise from Mount Prau. Mount Prau has an altitude of 2,565 meters above sea level and is located in the Dieng Plateau, along with other mountains that adorn the highest landmass in Central Java. This mountain is perfect for novice climbers. In addition to the clear and not so long track, the scenery provided is first class. So stunning is the scenery from the top of Mount Prau, to the extent that if we search the internet with the keyword "Gunung Prau", then what appears are the sights of the Prau Peak, not the image of Mount Prau itself. Usually the internet search results will show a vie...

Fast Food

  Fast food is a type of mass-produced food designed for commercial resale and with a strong priority placed on "speed of service" versus other relevant factors involved in culinary science. Fast food was created as a commercial strategy to accommodate the larger numbers of busy commuters, travelers and wage workers who often did not have the time to sit down at a public house or diner and wait for their meal. By making the speed of service the priority, this ensured that customers with strictly limited time (a commuter stopping to procure dinner to bring home to their family, for example, or an hourly laborer on a short lunch break) were not inconvenienced by waiting for their food to be cooked on-the-spot (as is expected from a traditional "sit down" restaurant). In 2018, the fast food industry was worth an estimated $570 billion globally. The fastest form of "fast food" consists of pre-cooked meals kept in readiness for a customer's arrival (Boston...
