Location : MIN 6 Aceh Utara https://maps.app.goo.gl/wPePKiCQGBvhSize7?g_st=ic
Hello all steemit friends, hopefully we are all given health and a long life, so that we can work even better and of course we can also greet each other and connect with each other through this steemit. And also hopefully all our activities go according to plan.
All stemian friends, of course, have often heard not the name of the wagon? Yes, Delman is one type of transportation that people used to use. Not only in ancient times, in Indonesia alone wagons are still encountered today. According to the history I've read, people used to use this traditional transportation to travel long distances, because the power possessed by horses was able to run for long distances.
But as time goes by, the existence of this transportation changes in function considering that nowadays there are a lot of modern and sophisticated transportation. In the past, I only saw the wagon through the television screen, because in my birthplace, Aceh, I had never seen it. But lately I can witness firsthand how the original form of the wagon. If history used to say that this wagon was only ridden by rich people or people who have influence in contrast to what is happening now.
Due to technological sophistication, people have shifted their means of transportation. Although wagons can still be found in Indonesia, their function as a means of transportation is no longer used. Maybe only certain areas still use this traditional transportation service for short distance trips. Actually, each region itself has its own name for the wagon.
Some time ago, many delmans from outside the region were brought to Aceh. Its function is not as a means of transportation, but I see more towards it as one of the newest game categories. These wagon guides often move from location to location to find new enthusiasts who want to try riding this historic transportation. I see many children who are interested in this traditional transportation.
Children who are really curious about horses feel enthusiastic when they see the wagon transportation. Children are even willing to queue just to be able to feel how it feels to ride a wagon. By only paying Rp. 5,000, children can ride a wagon for 10 minutes, of course, on a short distance trip. I saw a lot of children who flocked to want to ride a wagon. Even so, the wagon guides still limit the number of children who ride the wagon for safety.
Each delman can only be ridden by five to six children. Because the existence of the wagons is not always there every day, considering that they are always moving locations to find enthusiasts, the children are very enthusiastic, including my son. Even though it's not the first time for my son to ride a wagon, he still feels excited like the first time he rode it.
That's my moment and story about the wagon, hopefully this post can provide information and education for all of us! Thank you for reading and supporting my post. Good luck to all of us!!!
