post week 10

There are many things that we can do in my town, some of them can be done at Kapuas River. Precisely around the Kapuas River, there are many canoe rentals that we can get a canoe to row. On Kapuas River, especially in the evening, we can see there are many people rowing canoes. A canoe can be rented for only Rp10.000,00-Rp15.000,00.

From Kapuas River we can also ride Galaherang from Alun Alun Kapuas and watch the sunset. Galaherang is a sort of passenger ship. There are also some types of Galaherang and the price is various. Some of them provides acoustic music peformance on it that we can watch as we enjoy the view of Kapuas Bridge and River. Beside the acoustic music performance, we can also have some snacks or drinks sold on the Galaherang.

The other thing that we can see in Pontianak is Digulis Monument. Around the monument we can see beautiful and colorful water fountains. At night, so many peopel visit Digulis Monument to relax around it precisely at Digulis Park.

Aside from Digulis Monument, Pontianak has another monument called Equator Monument. It is located in Siantan. Pontianak City is called Equator City beacuse Pontianak is a city croseed by the equator line. At equator monument, we can witness culmination event that only occurs twice a year where Pontianak feels warmer that usual. This event can attract tourist to come over Pontianak
