Wamena Part II

 WAMENA CITY

On this time, i was talking about my hometown "Wamena". Many people who are not familiar with this city, there are even people who do not know where Wamena is located. Wamena is a city in Jayawijaya, Papua.

  

To go to Wamena you have to get on a plane. I suggest you get on a plane the morning of Jayapura, because in the morning, the weather is generally sunny and fog are rare. As the plane will land at Wamena airport, the plane will spin while lowering the height. Wamena airport is still very simple, with an open fence and filled the natives who saw the arrival of the aircraft.

 

 

But in 2011 the last, the only airport that is owned by the society's Wamena burning, departure and arrival terminal building is also a cafeteria and office equipment out of the aviation engulfed in flames. But as usual flight activities with limited facilities. there's one thing I always proud of this city, on the way out the door is cool and fresh air aircraft will immediately greeted us. one thing that no other city can be felt.
