Come On, Become Wise Travelers By Obeying These Rules When Traveling In Nature

JAKARTA - Visiting natural attractions such as mountains, beaches, lakes, waterfalls or forests is indeed fun. You can enjoy beautiful views that are rarely found before. This trip can certainly provide new experiences in your life.

However, it is important to remember that it is your duty to be a wise and honorable traveler. Know what to do and what not to do while on vacation in nature. There are written rules and not.

Before going somewhere, it's a good idea to do a little research about the rules there so you can travel safely and comfortably. Don't let your ignorance hurt yourself and nature.

In general, here are some prohibited things that should not be done while on vacation in nature:

Bringing food and drink while on a nature tour is actually fine. Especially considering that there may not be a place to eat or a shop to fill your stomach. However, remember to throw all trash in its place.

If there is no trash can? Put everything in a bag, then take it wherever you go until you find a trash can. Throw away all trash including food packaging, drinking bottles, straws, tissues, and even cigarette butts.

You may be able to circumvent unspoken rules by claiming not to know. However, make sure you are willing to read the written rules of each place you will visit.

Read the rules clearly, for example when to visit, areas you can and cannot go to, dress code, feeding wild animals, pulling plants or picking fruit, touching coral reefs, boundaries of swimming areas at the beach, and so on.

Writing your name, the name of your spouse, community, or gang in nature is tacky. This behavior can be destructive, making tourist attractions dirty and unsightly. If you want to do it, maybe you can on the beach sand?

Capturing vacation moments in nature by taking pictures is actually okay. However, always prioritize safety, don't take pictures in areas that are indeed prohibited, and avoid taking pictures of other people carelessly because it will make it uncomfortable.

So beautiful beach sand and shells that you find, so the thought of taking it home? Relax, you are not alone. Because many people do this. They even intend to bring plastic bottles to collect beach sand.

People might think it's okay to bring the sand home, but it won't run out when you bring a bottle?

In fact, taking beach sand and shells is prohibited and there are regulations in Law No. 5 of 1990 on Conservation of Living Natural Resources and Ecosystems. Be careful, doing so means breaking the law and could be subject to sanctions.
