Bathing in the Garden of Angels.
Not just any towers in the area of karst limestone hills in the district of Maros, South Sulawesi. There are also hundreds of caves to explore, the underground ecosystem, flora and fauna endemic may not even have a Latin name.
Enjoy the beauty of spring lines, some of whom could swim, and navigable, and unique pictorial from prehistoric times. Beauty of the tower and the limestone hill in Maros regency Pangkep, according to Amran Ahmad, Professor of the University of Hasanuddin, is worthy of world heritage.
For the sake of argument proves Prof Amran, Legal on an expedition to Angel Park. Our departure was accompanied by Muhammad Ikhwan and his friends from a group of nature lovers Footprint Forest Archipelago.
A distance of approximately two kilometers from the hamlet Rammang Rammang, we walked the rocky path, until he reached the end of the village. Some houses look tucked in between the rock karst hills, seen also fertile rice paddies lie near their homes, and ponds of clear water covered with moss overflowing the embankment with the settlement limit.
Regardless of the village, the path taken from the steep road winding down and climbing. Variation of the route is so rich, cross the creek via a wooden bridge, walk in the dike ponds and rice fields, the gap around the karst cave we had to bend his head so as not to hit rocks.
Last stage is somewhat strenuous, ridge-shaped hill composed of a sloping hill paths 45-60 degrees, followed by a steep bluff slope equal, as far as 25 meters down to the finish. Nun’s down there, Angel Park is located.
Garden of Angels is a natural bathing pond in a niche with a 10-meter wide and five meters wide. Water depths ranging from one to five meters.
It lies surrounded karst steep walls as high as 25 meters, including the edge of a steep driveway in the form we had earlier. On the upstream boundary, a wall niche parts of the rock. Dead-end niche, the human impassable. Despite the impasse, the water flows through a small tunnel to the bottom of the cave.
“If the dry season, the water rose higher and keep it fresh, whereas the surrounding water including flowing into the river will turn into a salty,” said the Brotherhood.
Water in a small pond was a little cool air cool, clear, and calm. When we are engrossed in a bath, a fish swimming leisurely near the ankles. Once satisfied bath, we clean up and leave the Garden of Angels.
