Enchantment Curug Citambur

CURUG Citambur, a waterfall height is approximately 100 meters in the Village of Karang Jaya, Kec. Pagelaran, South Cianjur. Water is very cold and not have a bathe in the water jatuhannya. Body will be a pain once when struck down because of dropping water volume is big enough, and far greater level than in the Curug Cimahi Cisarua, Kab. Bandung. Waterfalls located south Ciwidey, Kab. Bandung, the distance is approximately 40 km, the berpanorama beautiful. Around Curug always covered gauze and water jatuhannya voice so loud and sometimes sound diselingi Kutilang birds, as it were, enrich symphonic sound natural area. There serasa in nature that is still "virgin", not many human hands touched it. Tourism object is still exotic. There are two versions of why it is called Curug Citambur. Dargana, Chairman of the Board of The Village (BPD) Desa Karang Jaya explain, said the parents first, each waterfall that fell into the pond sounds "bergedebum" such as the drum. At that time, the volume of cataract may be far greater than now and kolamnya wide, giving rise to the sound of musical instruments such as the beaten tabuh overwrite each water swimming. Along menyusutnya volume of water, the sound is not heard again. Other versions, including Curug is first the Kingdom of the Tanjung Anginan, the king Prabu Tanjung Anginan title. His kingdom is in the center Pasirkuda, now including the Village and Simpang Karang Jaya, Kec. Pagelaran. Allegations in the center of power there, because there is a stone-shaped chair that is believed as the seat of the king. Meanwhile, Pasirkuda name because there is a stone on the hill (sand in the Sundanese language) in the horse. At the time the kingdom was founded, every king would like to bath Curug always suspected the drum sound, which ditabuh the guards. Voters berdebumnya musical instrument that sounds tabuh far enough so that residents call Pasirkuda Curug Citambur. However, the good and the Village Head Dargana Karang Jaya, Kec. Pagelarang, Kab. Cianjur, Dudih Rachmansyah not know how many centuries to the Kingdom of Tanjung Anginan stand. In history books there is no kingdom is not known. Perhaps, the Kingdom of Tanjung Anginan a legend. Only that, the word Dedih, in Curug Citambur occasionally be imprisoned is. They seem to assume that there is in the Curug supranatural strength. Although memesona Curug Citambur that has not been used optimally, it can assist menyejahterakan people around, but people in there one time be convinced waterfall can liberate people from poverty twist. Yayan Rohyana, community leaders Karang Jaya said, according to parents, at least have some requirements that must be met, among others, if there are outside parties who would like to arrange. Opinion that can be understood, especially if the southern region, from the Ciwalini, Kab. Bandung-The-Sindangbarang-Cidaun-Narigul, Kab. Cianjur-Ciwalini (circular route) many potential tourist objects that have not been empowered. Since Rancawalini's, left the road on the right to be a tea garden green carpet carpeting and air cool. Air "Cur-founder." So if the path is passing through, as if the eyes become spoiled and body fresh. The atmosphere is like to Cipelah Village, Kec. Rancabali, Kab. Bandung area is because of the PTPN VIII. After Cipelah, arid natural look. Akan but with paper Ranca Village, Kec. Pagelaran, Kab. Cianjur albeit not the plantation area, but extend pesawahan. On the right side of the road to Bandung from the three most sizable Curug, the people there called Curug Cisabuk. Pesawahan flood water in the area, also came from the Curug. Only unfortunately, a third Curug is quite difficult to reach, the location was quite far from the main road, there are new paths and uphill. However, Achmad said, people Cipelah, around the third Curug cave big enough. Penghuninya bats. Approximately 6 km to the south again to the two Curug one Curug Citambur. Both are in addition to Curug as tourism object, but also as a source of drinking water, irrigation and pool area pesawahan. And, in a number of locations in the area there pesawahan use terracing system (multilevel) that a background of green hills. If viewed from the road, a scene that looks interesting. Pesawahan area was made possible when the current agro pesawahan middle "ngetrend". The air does not unduly heat and water sufficient enough so that the tourists will be invited when tandur, bath water buffalo, and harvest. Beautiful fifth Curug is visible from the path Naringgul-Ciwalini, located in the east that are far enough distance tea plantation. Fifth Curug that look like five lines of mengilat, especially if tersorot sunlight, such as the rainbow appears, the show under a number of Curug nymph bathing center. So travel with the motor, Ciwidey cross-Rancawalini-Sindangbarang-Cidaun-Naringgul-Ciwalini very tempuhnya enthrall even the distance is far enough. In the path Cidaun-Ciwalini actually have a Curug, located in the street. Only unfortunately, water is dry, it seems he used for irrigation pesawahan. However, the situation when terobati akan akan Sindangbarang despite entering the city must cut the forest. In the village there are Jablagan Curug Cisawer located in the street too, with a high rainfall water. Memesona natural beauty of the region in the south, such as hidden pearls that mud, not empowered. Base of the causes, the condition of the road heavily damaged. With such conditions, the tourists became lazy to get there. If the roads smooth, beautiful area along the southern route is not necessarily too far enjoyed from Bandung. Moreover, the area attractions that are still "virgin" is presenting nan exotic natural beauty. Circle path south Cianjur this time is so that citizens can be free of poverty. And they are not easy to be deceived TKW (women workers) to the Eastern countries
