Be Right Back Away
Jul 17

Over the weekend, had a chance to stay over at Batam from Thursday night to Sunday night. It was the most memorable time ever. Wonderful. Won’t forget this moment together.

On Saturday, we went for a small trip over to an island nearby that is reachable by car. There were about 5 bridges that you have to passed through, hoping from one island to another.

The first bridge is awesome. Nice design. I was told that it was built during the era of President B.J. Habibie (around 1998-1999). From further searched around, it was named as Balerang Bridge.

The other 4 bridges were simple bridge. It was high enough that you can even have Bungee Jumping here. Very nice view from the top you can see.

Upon reaching the Balerang Island, you can visit an Ex-camp of Vietnam army. There was a temple, ex-hospital, camp and many more. Too bad it was almost sunset that we can’t go around much, so we only saw the ex-red cross (PMI - Palang Merah Indonesia) building and visited the Pagoda Temple for prayer.
