Cisoka Blue Lake



Written by: Yazkya Nada Oktavia

Tangerang (July 10, 2022), Indonesia has all the extraordinary natural potential. In fact, artificial nature can be very interesting to visit. Interestingly, the presence of the phenomenon of social media with selfies has made tourism in Indonesia grow rapidly. Most of them are known for going viral.

Currently, in the Tangerang area, there is a lot of discussion about a tourist area that is quite unique in its beauty. A beautiful and romantic lake with a variety of interesting photo spots. The tourist spot is Cisoka Blue Lake.

According to one local resident, Andri, he said "There are so many photo spots that are already available here. This modern spot is indeed an unavoidable attraction. Moreover, with the background of green trees, it adds to the beauty of this area"

This lake comes from a mining activity that was carried out from 1999 to 2005. Then, it was abandoned and not taken care of anymore. This former excavation forms a fairly large basin. Due to the high rainfall, this basin is finally filled with water.

Day by day, more and more water filled the basin so that it became a lake. There are more or less 3 excavated sand that can be seen in this area. What's unique is that the color of the water is not blue as seen today, but cloudy and dirty. Over time the particles that make the cloudy sink.

After these particles sink, the color of the water in this lake turns blue. Not because of a myth and mystery, but because of natural factors, namely the level of acidity of this lake is so high. Likewise, the level of acidity in the Mount Ijen area of Banyuwangi is also very high.

In addition to the acid level, it turns out that this lake also has algae or aquatic plants that are proven to be able to change the color of the water. Especially, when exposed to sunlight. The color of this water must change according to the color of the algae.

The number of lakes here are 3, which have different depths. The first lake with a depth of 5 meters. This lake will welcome Native friends. With a blue-green color. Then, the second lake has a depth of about 15 meters. Then, the third lake has a depth of about 20 meters.

The following are some of the results of interviews that we conducted with Nanda as a visitor using the 5W+1H method:

What: Cisoka Blue Lake is famous for the blue water of the lake. No wonder this tourist attraction is often used as a photo spot. For example, taking pictures for personal collections, pre-wedding or hunting for photos of models from the community. The location used is usually on a boat or on one side of the lake cliff.

When: For the operation of the Cisoka Blue Lake tourist destination itself, it is open every day from 06.00 - 18.00 WIB.

Who: This lake originates from a mining activity that was carried out in 1999 to 2005. Then, it was abandoned and not taken care of anymore. This former excavation forms a fairly large basin.

Why: Because when i set foot for the first time into Cisoka Blue Lake. There is a magical power that seems to make us reluctant to go. I want to continue to linger to enjoy the beauty that is presented, the interesting thing that can be felt in this place is the rural feel that will be felt shady, quiet and free from the hustle and bustle of the city. Being here will make you fresh and able to relieve fatigue and work that has piled up.

How: The entrance ticket to enjoy the scenery at the lake is quite cheap. Visitors only need to pay Rp. 12,000 to enter this tourist area. We can also surround this lake by renting a boat that has been provided by the manager. The price for this boat rental is quite cheap, only Rp. 20,000.

Where: The address for this area is Cigaru Cisoka street, Sukatani Village, Cisoka District, Tangerang Regency, Banten Province.

The following are the results of my observations and interviews regarding the Cisoka Blue Lake tourist area. If you are interested, you can immediately visit the Cisoka Blue Lake tourist spot with your family and relatives.
