Day Three June 11th 2008 of the Tour Package
BUKITTINGGI-LEMBAH HARAU
Today, it is our group’s “royal” tour. We are transported northeastern to Payakumbuh, literally means swamp of kumbuh or grassy swamp. We spend the whole morning till 3.00 PM, visiting the Rumah Godang/the traditional Minang Grand House, situated at the Sungai Baringin/River Baringin. Once in the yard of Rumah Godang we are welcomed with full Minang traditional welcoming dance ceremony- Tari Pasambahan/Tari Selamat Datang.
This is a very decorative and elaborate traditional dance ceremony that
truly replicates Minang local customs and mannerism of welcoming
visitors. Perhaps, it worth to mention “get ready with your camcorder,
digital and regular camera to record this event.” Our group lunch is
traditionally served and it is uniquely very Minang.

There are many events that are very popular with visiting tourists at Payakumbuh: kincir air/waterwheels, kipang jagung/a uniquely local pop corn, pandai besi/craftsmanship producing lethal and no lethal weapons from smelted iron, pertunjukan Debus/magic-based martial arts performed on special stage, pacu itik/flying duck race, monyet memetik kelapa/monkeys plucking young coconuts show, pencak silat/martial art, and traditional Minang dance troupes performing live.
To complete our groups ‘royal” tour of the day, we proceed to the majestic panoramic Lembah Harau/ the Valley of Harau. Lembah Harau is in Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota
/District of Fifty Cities. Two words that fully describe the experience
at Lembah Harau, a Cagar Alam or Strict Nature Reserve: very
extraordinary. The ever fresh and refreshing mountain air and
atmosphere, and the steeped rock terrain contours served as the
decorative backdrops to waterfalls and its rainbow mists and vapors
surely put us into an uplifting soothing experience of serenity and
tranquility. To those mountain climbers, this Valley promises cool physical challenges.
