PADANG TIJI, Indonesia - Want a vacation while enjoying the beauty of nature and a river like a Grand Canyon? No need to go all the way to the Americas. In Aceh, there is a river similar to the Grand Canyon. His name is Kuwieng Lingkok.

Kuwieng Lingkok is located in the hinterland of Hagu forest, 20 km or 1.5 hours from the center of Padang Tiji Subdistrict, Pidie, Aceh. The place is often called the Grand Canyon of Aceh. Imagine, the river wall there is a rock that is neatly arranged in the form of a large canyon.

The canyon is formed somewhat like an ancient site. The arrangement and contours of the stone at first glance like the results of hand-carved men of old. But make no mistake, the canyon there is formed by itself.

The uniqueness of the Kuwieng Lingkok canyon is a purely natural phenomenon, due to erosion by mountain water that always flows with an ever-changing volume.

"Very cool, the rocks are neatly arranged and extending along the side of the river I was the first time here," said Fauzi Ramli, a visitor to Rappler.

In Lingkok Kuwieng, we can take a bath to enjoy the clean and cold water from the source. The water comes out of some rocky crevices. In addition, we can also bathe in a number of waterfalls created by the bottom of the river that descends on the rocks.

Being in the interior of the forest with natural beauty is still awake, we can also relax for a moment on the flat rocks while enjoying the sound of river water flow and birds nyinyiran from the forest.

"I fell asleep on the rocks, the beautiful nature and peaceful atmosphere in the middle of the forest makes us comfortable to linger here," said Reza, another visitor.

The natural attractions of Lingkok Kuwieng were originally discovered by some members of nature lovers and increasingly famous after the photos were uploaded to social media.

Locals more familiar with the place with the name Uruek Meuh means the Golden Hole because of the rocks in there that resemble the color of gold.

In the past three years, Kuwakeng Lingkok has become more popular in people's ears. This is evident from the number of visitors who want to enjoy the natural beauty there.
