Definition
of tourism
Tourism is travel for pleasure or business;
also the theory and practice of touring, the business of attracting,
accommodating, and entertaining tourists, and the business of operating tours.Tourism may be
international, or within the traveller's country. The World Tourism Organization defines tourism more
generally, in terms which go "beyond the common perception of tourism as
being limited to holiday activity only", as people "traveling to and
staying in places outside their usual e nvironment
for not more than one consecutive year for leisure and not less than 24
hours, business and other purposes".Tourism can be domestic or
international, and international tourism has both incoming and outgoing
implications on a country's balance of payments.
In accordance with RI Law No. 9 of 1990 concerning Tourism, states that Tourism is an activity aimed at providing tourism services, providing or operating tourist objects and attractions, tourism facilities and other businesses related to that field.

in this section I will discuss more about the discovery of a historical site in Bumiayu, in my opinion this is a good start to advance the economy in Bumiayu through tourism, let's discuss further!
What is Bumiayu?
Bumiayu is a district in the Brebes, Central Java, Indonesia. Bumiayu is the center of community activity in the south of Brebes. Its sub-districts include Tonjong, Sirampog, Bantarkawung, Salem, and Paguyangan.This district is located in upland areas, and has major transportation routes through Tegal - Navan, as well as rail access to Cirebon-Purwokerto Jakarta-Yogyakarta, Surabaya. The railway station Bumiayu is one of the train stops important to this area.

BREBES - Yogyakarta Archaeological Center (Balar) ensures that all two ancient
fossils in the form of hump bones (thighs) were identified as ancient humans
around 1.8 million years old. This was conveyed during the presentation of the
Balar team's research results on the findings at Brebes, Tuesday (2/7).
The Chairman of the DIY Balar
Team, Harry Widianto, explained that the findings broke the assumptions and
theories that had been believed. That the oldest ancient human sites in Java
and Indonesia turned out not to be in Sangiran, Sragen. But from Bumiayu,
Brebes.
"Based on the results of the
Yogyakarta Balar team's research regarding plio-plestocene migration on the
Bumiayu-Prupuk-Semedo axis, the arrival and distribution of the oldest humans
and mammals in Java or Indonesia. The findings of these two fossils have been
identified as 1.8 million years old," explained
"For the precise measurement
of the age of ancient human fossils, we will test with special tools in a
dataile and more factual manner," he added.
For this reason, the Yogyakarta
Balar team is still trying to dig up information and conduct detailed research
related to the findings of two fossils of these ancient human parts.
"This is a great finding that
we should be grateful for, because it changed the theory that was previously
believed. Including, the oldest ancient human development in Indonesia
originally in Sangiran from migration from the area of African distribution.
All of that, refuted by the findings of these two fossils. So early humans in
here it developed locally itself from 1.8 million years ago, "he said.
Build an Archaeological Museum
Responding to that, the Brebes Regent Idza Priyanti, said the government would seek the development of ancient sites in the Bumiayu District of Brebes Regency.
"We have prepared land for an archaeological site development museum in the village of Laren, Bumiayu District, covering an area of 4 hectares. The reason was built in the ancient site museum in Desa Laren because it has potential land," he explained.
The new museum of archaeological sites in Bumiayu, he continued, is planned to begin construction in 2020. With a budget from the Regional Budget.
"Archaeological site museums that will soon be built will be made into centers of archaeological research and learning as well as a means of education for students and the wider community," he explained.Based on the news above, I am increasingly convinced that this is a bright spot to make Bumiayu a historical tourism city.
Besides being found fossil, in the earthayu also found the ruins of Hindu temples located in the village of Galuhtimur.
NEWS
Brebes - A rubble of ancient temple ruins found in Galuhtimur Village, Tonjong District, Brebes Regency, Central Java. The debris consisting of andesite bricks and stones is still being studied by the Central Java Cultural Heritage Preservation Agency (BPCB).
The ruins of the temple along with the statue are thought to be a relic of classical Hindu times around the VII-XIII century AD.
This former rubble was found in the forest area of Perhutani in Galuh Timur Village, Tonjong District. Initially found statues and umpak (temple foundations) in that location.
The Head of Antiquities, Brebes Regency Culture, Youth and Sports Office, Wijanarto explained, the findings in the East Galuh Village began with an inventory of evidence of village history. This activity involved village officials, Perhutani officers and the community. They then got a report from residents that there was an ancient building debris that was discovered some time ago.
"The building that is estimated to be about 8 × 8 meters in size with a rectangular shape. Depth is estimated to be up to 7 meters. Actually, this site has been found in 1970 but by residents, taken part of the debris. Maybe thought not a historical heritage," said Wijanarto On Friday (7/19/2019).
In addition to
the ruins of the temple building, in the same location there was also a
Dwarapala statue and a rectangular well former. Explained, for the basic
material of this temple building is made of red brick, not andesite stone.
Meanwhile, the Dwarapala statue found was made of andesite stone.
This historical
heritage is found, said Wijanarto, showing a classic map of Hindu power in the
southern Central Java region. This is evidenced by the findings of other
findings such as the Pangkuan Temple in Cilibur Village, Paguyangan District,
Lumpang Jaran Statue in Laren Bumiayu Village and the Ganesha Statue in
Wanatirta Village, Paguyangan District.
"This
finding has important meaning. This proves that the southern part of Central
Java has classic Hidnu heritage findings. In terms of power, it is possible to
link the influence of the kingdom in the Pasundan region such as the Galuh
kingdom which has influence from the southern West Java region to southern
Central Java (Brebes and Banyumas), "he said.
At present, the
Center for Preservation of Cultural Heritage (BPCB) is still researching these
findings. But it is estimated, the ruins of the temple and statues are classic
Hindu relics of the VIII to XIII centuries.
The discovery of
a building structure that is thought to be part of Hindu temple in Galuhtimur
Village, Tonjong Subdistrict, Brebes Regency shocked the residents.
Busro, 57, a
local community leader said, the structure of the temple building was found in
the middle of the Perhutani teak forest, the Dukuh Kalipucung area, a local
village.
"Initially
found some parts of the statue (statue), then again found rock components
similar to rocks in the temple building," he said.
From the findings,
he continued, residents then tried to find out by digging the ground around the
location of the initial discovery.
Regardless of the discovery of the temple and fossils, when you visit Bumiayu there are several places that you can visit and certainly those places have historical value.
below I will tell you places you can visit when you go to Bumiayu.
1. Sakalibel bridge
Sakalimolas Bridge, Sakalimalas, or Sakalibel (from
Javanese: saka, pole; limalas, fifteen) is the term for fifteen-masted railroad
bridge, which crosses over the Keruh River, Bumiayu, Brebes. The longest bridge
in the Operational Area V Purwokerto has a wisdom building number 1153 and is
located about one kilometer east of Bumiayu Station. With a length of around
298 m and backed by beautiful mountain scenery, Sakalimolas is popular as a
place to hunt photos, especially railfans. Especially after the construction of
the outer ring road of the city of Bumiayu which passes under Sakalimolas.
However, together with the construction of a double
track railway between Purwokerto and Prupuk, the Dutch-era heritage bridge that
uses this steel frame, is now replaced with a new building constructed of
concrete and renamed Sakanenem [1]. The new concrete bridge also contains two
rail lines, while the old bridge is no longer functioning.
2.
Wage market
The
wage market, so the Bumiayu Brebes community calls it. The existence of the
market is only every wage (one of the names of the days, in the Java market)
this is indeed so special for the citizens. Not only for residents in the
Bumiayu sub-district, each of the hundreds of residents from other
sub-districts, such as Paguyangan, Bantarkawung, Tonjong and Sirampog do not
miss to take part. and not only parents, on holidays there are not a few
children who glide in this market.
Yes,
this is the Wage Market which is sometimes called a cheap market by some
people. This mention is not without reason. For certain commodities such as
shirts, jackets, pants, household furniture, the price in this market is indeed
cheap. Although the price is not infrequently tilted in line with the quality
of the goods themselves.
The
wage market is indeed unique, amidst the rampant action of building
supermarkets and minimarkets in Bumiayu, this traditional market remains
victorious, sucking the public's interest in shopping. With the characteristic
'bargaining' this market has become a special concern for the community. The
market, which is actually for 'cattle trading', has far developed its original
destination.
But
of course, the establishment of this market is not without problems. the number
of merchant stalls often jams traffic. The stalls that fly along the road to
the village of Laren, grinding the road body makes it narrower.
Even
so, with everything he has. The wage market is still highly anticipated.
