Sarangan lake back to normal despite COVID-19 pandemic
Sarangan lake still opens for visitors during the pandemic after its three months of opening trial starting from June till October when new normal began.
The famous lake in
Magetan city, Sarangan Lake, is a magnet to locals and nonlocals for its view
of the greenish hill and clear lake. There are speedboats which visitors can
rent to enjoy the lake’s surrounding as well. So it is not a surprise for many
people to visit the tourist object.
Ade, a visitor from
Sukoharjo who visited on Sunday 24 October, said that she came with her friends
to Sarangan Lake because of its chill and the speedboats.
“I actually wanted to
try the speedboat, but some of my friends couldn’t because they had nausea, so
we were just enjoying the lake’s view and eating in the food stalls nearby,”
stated Ade.
However Ade realized
that there was no health protocol applied in Sarangan Lake despite the pandemic
that still happening.
“Sadly, no, there were
no officers to check our temperature neither advised to wash our hands, but we
still wore our masks. Even though I saw some people were not wearing masks, the
majority were still wearing it,” said Ade.
Hopefully, officials
will reconsider this action because the pandemic is not over yet, especially in
tourist objects where people gather in not so few numbers.
