walking in kemangkon street part 1

pubalingga has 18 district, one of them is kemangkon.

this district include low land district. the journey began in the distict capital (panican village)....
here we can found traditional market, some of store that sold daily needs. from the market we saw crossroads, the east way was towards to Tidu, wirasaba and Kembangan village (this road is national road that leading to banjarnegara or a shortcut. the south way is towards to kemangkon village and serayu river......oh ya, if you want to see dutch heritage construction (a trainway bridge) you can go to this path and keep look arround and go to left before uphilll road. this train was already changed to be a road(only bike and motorcycle )that connecting wirasaba and klampok district in banjarnegara regency.
kemangkon village (south the capital)is one of large village here, there was many fishing location here....in serayu river to be favourites of the anglers, one of the location was Kemojing, the way to the serayu river just like the way to the beach....if i get there get pass the rice field the wind flow smoothly here....just like the beach wind ......the time we get there about an hour.

south road of kemangkon,
if we go to kemangon village, before we reach there we would found another crossroad, if we turn right we will find kedunglegok and majatengah village.

Kedunglegok and Majatengah village with pelumutan village were include village that suitable to sugarcane farming because the land almost dry here whreas they were near with the river (unfortunately they almost never get flooded.)
here we can find traditional way to create palm sugar, from the coconut pick until production. local people here were calm and lookely so quiet.
because near with serayu river, many favourite local person fishing places one of them was on pelumutan, so there was 2 recomended place to fishing here (kemojing kemangkon and pelumutan).
beside it there was so many sand mining there (in the river) they use to build a construction or house but sadly it will create disruption of river ecosystem and will gradually destroy bridges and other rivers construction......

back to the capital of the district that gradually became little town in purbalingga follow the regency's capital, bobotsari, rembang, bukateja, bojongsari, padamara, karangreja and kertanegara district that already growth.

next time we will walk in another path of kemangkon district....(to the west and across the Klawing river)
