Ayah today

Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allah is the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary)." But the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)] said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah, then Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode . And for the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong - doers) there are no helpers.
Surah Al-Ma'idah, 5 : 72

Gurok Beraye Waterfalls

Gunung tajam is the highest hill in Belitung with its height above the sea level around 500 metres. From the height of the hill, we could see and enjoy the beauty of Belitung island panoramas. About 300 metres from the hill top there is a small water fals which the people of Belitung call it "Air Terjun Gurok Beraye" (Gurok Beraye Waterfalls). The clean and clean water falls into a natural pond which wide enough, where some species of fresh water fish swimming leisurely in it, really contrast with the songs of birds, which flying from one tree to another, indeed, it will make and individual absorption for those who like the atmosphere of a free nature, free from any kind of pollution or disturbances of tumult and uproar of the city life.

This area had once been developed by the Dutch since 1940 as a place for having rest at the weekend. The remmants can be found as the old building, such as: bungalow, bathroom etc. The road to the waterfalls although it has been asphalt, yet, we must be careful because besides the road is mounted, and also on the right side along the way to the place there is deep and steep valleys.
