During my exploration in Ternate, I accidentally saw an interesting traditional restaurant. My curiosity leads me to stop by this restaurant and have my lunch here. The view was so amazing and we would eat inside the floating boat whoch makes it interesting and memorable. The lake water is so calm and the air is so fresh. The most interesting part is, you do your own fishing, and if you get one, you can eat the fish you got. OMG i highly recommend you guys if you happened to visit Ternate.
