Pagar Alam, love this city!!

pagaralam  It was still very early, even the dawn was not yet showing signs of rising. Pagaralam air was really cold. Not many people are willing to let go of the blanket this morning. But that's not me, Titis, and Mas Yopie who are ready-ready-made jacket and carrying a camera ready to break through the tea gardens to see the sunrise.
This morning we want to see the sunrise from the top of Mount Dempo. Our car immediately went up the mountain past the tea gardens that spread out wide on the right and left side of the road. But before we reached the top of the mountain, bursts of orange light began to appear on the back of the Bukit Barisan which looks at the other side. We immediately pulled over and get ready to watch the seconds emergence of the sun. From up here looking scenery Pagaralam City that is still shrouded in fog. A great place to enjoy the sunrise. Orange light slowly pushed out of the sky is blue Pagaralam. We immediately set up a camera because they do not want to miss these moments any seconds.

The sun was completely out, looks a population of around launch activities. One of two motorcycle started down the mountain. Uniformed school children began to fill the hood of cars that will take them to school at the foot of the mountain. Activities at the tea plantation was started living. Seen from afar tea pickers mothers began entering the tea gardens. We walked toward the place of mothers across the tea pickers tea leaves are still wet with dew. Fragrant tea leaves always makes me want to play in the tea garden like this. We also greet the mothers of the tea leaf pickers near future. They are very friendly. Although shy, they are always pleased when our photos.

On his return from tea gardens, we are taking the time to stop by the Mount Dempo tea processing factory which was situated not far from the tea garden complex. Unfortunately, we were unable to enter the area of the factory because they do not have permission. Finally we opted for the cooperatives that are just across the factory. The cooperative has sold all variants of Mount Dempo tea products, ranging from tea bags, brewed tea, to coffee. I myself have never tried tea Gunung Dempo, so I bought several boxes of tea bags and tea brewed at once for souvenirs.
 
We returned to the cottage where we stayed in the tea garden complex. I can not wait to taste the tea flavor Mount Dempo then immediately go and take the cup to make tea. Bead and the other was sitting on the balcony of the back of the cottage. Is there that we spent the morning with a cup of tea and a view of Mount Dempo tea gardens are soothing eye. The tea fragrance and flavor of the tea leaves are very thick, typical of Indonesian tea. I am indeed a fan of Indonesian tea. One of my favorite tea is tea Walini taken from the highlands of West Java. And this time I also settled on a tea Mount Dempo. True message of my friends before I go to Pagaralam, "When you get Pagaralam, must try the tea!"
