I went to Jogjakarta for holiday. I really miss jogja...=D because I have lived there for 4 years to study.
Jogjakarta, located on the island of Java is one of Indonesia's most popular tourist destinations. Jogjakarta is in south central Java and it is surrounded by the Indian Ocean in the south and it also borders on the province of central Java.
A month ago Merapi mountain in Jogjakarta, Indonesia erupted. It caused many disasters as victims' houses received thick ash and buried in sand. This disaster has changed agricultural land to desert land. I went there with one of my friend Ririn. I took these pictures in Cangkringan village, near Gendol river. Here you can see my pics.
Gendol river, one of the rivers which was passed by lava Merapi Mountain; changed into terrifying scenery. When I went to this place I could smell sulfur odor.
Houses, vehicles, livestock, furnitures..everythings damaged due to melting in the Merapi eruption.
This motorcycle can’t be used again, because it was melted. So terrifying.
Livestock had died and gotten burned. Our government has given compensation for the evacuees whose livestock died.
Now the government has tried to build shelter from bamboo for them. It will be built not far from their homes.
Many evacuees live in refugee camps. They do many activities together with NGO and some other organizations to help their lives.
There is cold lava in magelang now. It happened in rivers which pass through magelang city. This cold lava has damaged houses, agriculture, and infrastructure.
I hope this disaster can end and they can live in happiness.
Enjoy the friendly of Jogjakarta =D
