On our last post, we have mention
about Wijaya de Art of the garden and now we are going to continue with the
second destination, which is Mekarsari.
Mekarsari, the Amazing Tourism
Park that is located at Cileungsi
District Km 03, Bogor
regency, is not only a center of the agricultural biodiversity of tropical
fruit but a laboratory, a cultivation center and a research center of corpse
flower as well. It has a collection of tropical fruit plants that are
endangered like 'kepel, duwet, menteng and matoa ....etc'.
And as a family tourism park,
Mekarsari has many kinds of interesting packages that able to attract visitors,
one of them is Green Land Tour package which 'Margriet-Dorothea' followed some
time ago. By following the tour package, the visitors have the opportunity to
see the orchards like salacca, starfruit, durian or they could feel the
sensation of picking melons from the tree at the greenhouse site of melon.
Sound interesting, ya? Ok, here's
