The island of Lombok, which lies next to Bali, is not just blessed with beautiful beaches and unspoiled natural panoramas but also rich in traditional culture; and the most popular icon of Lombok’s culture (even the icon of Lombok) is Sasak’s traditional house. A visit to the island of Lombok is incomplete without seeing the Sasak’s traditional house; and one of the best places to see Sasak’s traditional house is in Sade Village, a Sasak traditional village.
Sukarare
This is a village of traditional weavers south of Cakranegara, Lombok known for its brightly patterned songket cloth. The techniques, patterns and motifs have been handed down through the generations
Here are some shots made recent visit to this village :
Gili Trawangan is the largest of three Lombok’s Gili Islands (Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air) and is the only one to rise significantly above sea level. It is 3 km long and 2 km wide with a population of about 700. Gili Trawangan offers a white sand island, surrounded by turquiose water with good sunrise over Lombok’s Mount Rinjani volcano and superb sunsets that can be seen from sunset point on the south tip of the island.
On Gili Trawangan there are no motorized vehicles. The main means of transportation are bicycles (rented by locals to tourists) and cidomo (a small horsedrawn carriage). For traveling to and from each of the Gilis, locals usually use motorized boats and speedboats.
Public transportations in Lombok Island especially in the rural areas are quite an exception for the foreign travelers who are used to safe and comfort public transportation to see or use.
When you make a trip to Lombok, the word “Senggigi” may be one of few frequent words you will hear. Senggigi is a coastal area with a 10 kilometer-beautiful beach stretch along the coastal road of West Lombok. It is located only 15 km north of Lombok’s capital Mataram.
