A very bright day for us to begin the journey. Our goal is Lake Sidihoni. This is one of the unique island of Samosir, which is a lake on the lake. This lake is located 8 km from Pangururan. According to the local community, the lake water was receding at the Nias earthquake some time ago. Water lakes which used to cover the plains are indeed visible shallow. No one knows where the water had disappeared.
However, reflux of the lake, did not reduce the beauty there. Sidihoni lake surrounded by mountains it is no less beautiful with other tourist locations. The air around the lake so very cool.
Then, our next trip to the Museum Huta Bolon Simanindo to watch the Dances Sigale-gale. A traditional dance of the Batak people who also have a legend. It is said in this dance involves a buffalo that became a gift to the gods. Yet it is only symbolic.
Before watching Sigale-gale dance, we took a tour of the museum. There are few relics of King Batak. There ulos cloth with various motifs and names, cooking utensils, weapons of war and jewels. Everything was neatly collected in a traditional Batak house became a place of storage, these items were displayed in glass cabinets dipantek order to avoid the hands of ignorant people are not responsible.
Promptly at 10:30 the dance began. Starting with a herd of buffalo into the middle of the field and tied to a tree. From the traditional houses on the right and left, came three women and two men are the Batak complete with clothing. They perform a ritual dance to the accompaniment of musical instruments typical sound of the Batak. Dance seemed to represent habits Batak communities in antiquity. This dance has 12 rounds. The last round is Gondang Sigale-gale, who danced and talked with a wooden puppet tool.
Submitted that in antiquity, there was a king who was very fond of children. Until one day the children died because of illness. King also felt very lonely without her son, then he was looking for a highly skilled sculptor and asked him to be made exactly the same statue that his form was like a son.
But because it's just a statue, the King still feel lonely. Finally, the King summoned the spirit of his son to get into the statue to be able to move like a human being who is still alive. The story about the sadness of a father who abandoned her son this is still guarded by its preservation of local people.
Completion of the museum Simanindo Huta Bolon, we would love to see how making Batak ulos. Our journey it is incomplete if not see how making Batak ulos. Because ulos a typical craft Batak society. We arrived at the Village Perbaba. There was a home industry producing ulos. Unfortunately, when we got there the craftsmen were taking a break for lunch. Just seems a mother who was working ulos pink.
Under the midday sun, the mother is busy sitting under a shady tree. Looks very skilled hands to make the motive for ulos of gold-colored yarn. The tools used are not much different songket maker in Palembang. Which differentiate only fabric motifs.
Ulos have a very unique motifs. Finish saw ulos-making, we continue to travel Siallagan Ambarita. This is where the occurrence of the first trial. Somewhat remote place, surrounded by high fences of stone with approximately two meters. The entrance was small and there are also a statue guarding the door.
Entry into the Village there Siallagan approximately seven Batak traditional houses. Among these homes, there is a house that is greatest. The biggest house was the home of King Siallagan. Directly in front of the house of the King, there is a trial court consisting of a round table that is located in the middle and surrounded by chairs all made of stone.
Court was shaded by a tree that is very large and old, called the Fig Tree Day. Tree Day, known as the Fig Tree Seven Days. Called the Tree of Seven Day because this tree is a symbol of whether a prosperous kingdom. When found in a soil, the fig tree will be planted first. And if within seven days the tree was not growing, it is not feasible land used as the location of a kingdom. Because, if the tree can not live, then what about the humans?
Ambarita Siallagan quite crowded by tourists, both foreign and domestic. During his stay in it there is a guide that will tell how the history of the Assembly's Stone. The story is very unique and interesting. Coupled with a very beautiful natural scenery, fascinating and captivating. How? Is Samosir will be your next destination?
