📸 A great spot for photos

📍 2. Ancut Petanu — river restaurant

On your way to the trail, stop at Ancut Petanu. It's currently under reconstruction; the kitchen is questionable, but the natural location is amazing 💥

Tip: Grab a drink and just relax with a river view.

📍 3. Mancingan Rice Terrace — path through rice fields

🌾 700 meters amidst greenery, palms, and water. The path is excellent, with rare benches on the sides.
