Tiu Teja the Twin Water Fall

Image
On 5 th of January 2014, I was exploring a twin water fall at Santong—sub district of North Lombok. I felt a bit ashamed because as a Lombok born Indonesian, this is my first visit to this infamous waterfall. This also made me choose Tiu Teja as the next article for Travelling Column in my website—www.lombokpage.com. Well to get there, I preferred to take Mataram-Senggigi-Tanjung-Santong route. This route allowed to me to enjoy the sunset and showed me a lust blue ocean.  I started my trip at 8 am and got Santong around 9.45 a.m. From this gate you can ride your motorbike to the water fall entrance especially in the dry season. If you go Tiu Teja In the rain season, it would be better if you do trekking from the main gate. The road is quiet muddy in the rain season. Along the road you will be wrapped by the fresh air and spoiled by the view of tropical forest which is habitat of various flora—cloves, coffee, gaharu and etc—and of fauna—monkey, birds, lizards and etc.
