In addition to water found in lakes with a surface of the red, in the forest on the border Raje Mandare Bengkulu, South Sumatra, is known to a lot of weirdness.

According Kasmidi, red lake itself is also unusual, at least according to his knowledge. Because, although the water looks red, but if picked up using the hand or scoop, water is a normal course. Clear and lucid.

Another anomaly, said Kasmidi, there is a location not far from the lake which raises the pandanus flavor when night. It was not found on other sites.

Still Kasmidi story, in the forest Mandare Raje also exist a number of giant animals. For example, the centipede with a width of 30 cm and 50 cm in length, giant bird, and buffalo ear is a nest of bees or wasps.

Surprisingly, the forest trees standing on it was like having a separate order. If the land where the tree grew still enter the Land Basemah Pagar Alam, all the tree tilted towards Pagar Alam. However, if the growth in Bengkulu, the trees were also skewed towards Bengkulu, or opposite the direction of Pagar Alam.

Still in the area, all species of birds and forest animals tame enough, no fear of humans. Even so, for birds and animals do not run away, visitors must not make a sound or speech.

“There are other things that we found, such as centipedes the size of width 30 cm and 50 cm long, giant bird, and buffalo whose ear is a nest of bees or wasps. However, we do not know what is stored in the hill Raje Mandare it,” he said .

Head of Tourism and local Senibudaya, Syafrudin, said the area Rimbacandi is still much mystery that has yet to unfold, including the presence Raje Mandare hill that has many historical relics.

Unfortunately, local governments are still constrained funding to conduct research in the area. In addition, there are also limitations of experts. Therefore, further study is needed to unravel the mystery Forest Mandare Raje.
