Tidung Island, Jakarta's Thousand Islands
Talking about Tidung Island, it means that what is
meant is two interconnected islands, namely Tidung Besar Island and Tidung
Kecil Island. Tidung Besar Island is used for residential areas, while Tidung
Kecil Island is a nature conservation area.
Like residential areas, Tidung Besar Island has social
and economic facilities to support people's lives. Along the main road, there
are schools, houses of worship, health facilities, government offices, and
residents' houses. According to history, this island has been inhabited by
residents since the 1800s.
Like other inhabited islands in the Thousand Islands,
Tidung Island is inhabited by a fairly heterogeneous population. According to
records, residents on this island come from several regions and ethnicities in
the country, such as Java, East Kalimantan, West Kalimantan, Banten, Bugis,
Sumatra, Betawi, Sumbawa, and Mandar. So, the community is quite open to
newcomers, because local residents are used to interacting with various
ethnicities in the country.
Tidung Island is located in the South Thousand Islands
District. Being in the southern area shows that this island is close to the
city of Jakarta. This island is the right alternative for a short vacation,
like a weekend. For a vacation to Bali or Lombok, you certainly need at least a
week. However, you can have a vacation to Tidung Island in 2 days or even 1
day.
So, a short vacation is no
longer an excuse for not going anywhere….On Tidung Island, you can spend your
vacation time full of impressions, and refresh your body and mind to return to
your normal activities.
Romantic Stories on the Tidung Island Love Bridge
Tidung Island has started to attract the attention of tourists since it was first developed as a tourist area. More attention was received when the Cinta Bridge, which connected the Big and Small Tidung Islands, was built. The concept of this bridge is not just connecting two islands, but is designed as an attractive spot for tourists. This 800 meter long bridge has become a tourist icon of Tidung Island as:
A romantic spot to make love, especially at sunset
Spot a beautiful selfie against the backdrop of the open ocean
Spot entertainment in the afternoon, because visitors can see local children bathing in the sea and jumping from bridges
A guts fighting spot, for tourists who want to try jumping from a bridge and then bathing in the sea.
In fact, the attractiveness of the Bridge of Love is increasingly 'flavored' by word of mouth. For example, there are visitors who believe that couples who are fighting can get along if they visit this bridge. Believe it or not, it all depends on you of course.
The Bridge of Love was originally built from wood. But now, this bridge has been built permanently by the government. The pink paint further emphasizes the theme carried in this tourist attraction. Regardless of the romantic myths attached to it, the design and position of the bridge does emit a positive scent. Perhaps, the sense of calm and peace felt by your partner is a source of inspiration and motivation to find solutions to the problems you are facing.
