This crystal clear water is tempted for those who wants to visit and swim in the clean river. The fresh water all the way flows down from the mountainous places channeled in different areas and in to the sea.
A Quick Tour of the River:
📸 The Wideness and coolness of fresh water at the River:
There are lots of shallow and deep areas in the river and a perfect place to swim. Every weeken, this area here is the diving spots to all children. The riverbed is compost with sands and peebles and slow water current. Aside of diving spots, clothes washing also done here. Residents gathered lots of stones so they can put their washed clothes and most of all, a shady place brought by big branches of the trees and can be abled to swim in the water whole day.
📸 Tons of rocks and Peebles at the River:
There are lots of tons of rocks and peebles at the river, great floods swept away this tons of rocks from the mountain and some of it are ended here. It can be identified by its line marks at the stone's surfaces. Different sizes, colors and formations can be seen and most of the rocks can be found here are Silica. This big tons of rock is also a silica and it was washed away during great flood all the way down here. Some of it are submerged in the fresh water and burried by sand for a long time. Peebles are scattered everwhere including near at the cliffs.
📸 Wild Grass and Flowers near At The River:
The water level of the river keeps decreasing because of the intense heat, wild grass are started to grow near at the water even if the place contains lots of rocks. Despite of that, it keeps the place to have a wonderful views because of the wild plants and flowers grows. This is very normal here when summer season happens here. Some flowers are takes to bloom every summer season and it brings more colorful to the surroundings particularly at the riverside. Insects like Bees, spiders, butterflies and dragonflies. Big trees are also grows near at the river and it gives a shady areas of the place.
📸 A Dog Crossing at the River:
Because of the water level decreasing, animals can be abled to crossed in the river just like this dog. Most of the animals like dogs went here to catch fish and shrimps. Everytine when I visited here, the only thing I heard are the splashing of water, Breezes and bamboo swaying. It is surrounded with bamboos and each side of the cliff and a few road trails that served as a shortcut road to all residents.
📸 A driftwood at the Middle of the River:
There are also lots of driftwood at the river and it cannot flowed out because of the slow water current. Residents chopped some driftwoods and used it a firewoods. Under in this thing, there are lots of fresh water animals like shrimps, crabs and fishes hiding. Exploring the river and other wonderful and relaxing places is very fun and enjoyable. It is a Nature's gift for us. Until next post, have a nice day to everyone.
