Storycitra.com- What can I said when I said “Finally I visit the something unique in Bintan island, that is called Istana Pak Madun (The Kingdom of Mr. Madun). The owner said “Istana Jendala Dunia Pak Madun (Palace of the World Window Mr. Madun).” Why am I interested to visit this place? The quotes of the day, “Travel is not about how much money you spend to get a holiday. Travel is about what do you learn and see with your own world to make you keep strong and happy.” – Citra Pandiangan

Get Lost in Jendala Dunia Pak Madun in Bintan

 
istana pak madun Jendela dunia Bintan
Today, I am Citra Pandiangan wants to tell you story about “Istana Jendela Dunia Pak Madun.” Do you like to read fairy tales? This place is like a fairy tale but it’s not a beautiful kingdom. It sounds like a haunted palace or haunted forest to find a unique and different place. Honestly, that is right. The located Istana Pak Madun is far away from the city or local village on Bintan island. This place is very difficult to find it because this house should pass the forest and nobody will help you if you get lost. The place is really quiet and at the end of Bintan Island and without local residents that can be found easily. However, you don't need to worry if you get lost in the direction.
 
When we find on the dictionary about a gypsy, the meaning of the word of the gypsy is a member of a group of people who travel from place to place esp. in Europe and who originally came from northern India, or anyone who travels often and does not live in one place for long.1 Actually Pak Madun (Sir Madun) is not moved from place to place, but the place is like the gypsy house in my imagination. I know gypsy’s house is more like a tent. This Madun’s house is like imagine of haunted forest in the middle of the forest with the Buildings formed by various kinds of used goods are found on the coast. Every place that he built was made a theme, but the items used ranging from wood, plastic and various other types were made as unique as possible according to Pak Madun's style.

Mr. Madun said he used goods which he collected on the currents from the sea and also the forest. “I did create this place since 1995. Some people on the group visit this place from the army, government and tourism,” Madun said.

When you visit Madun place, you can see the sea because the sea is not so far from his place. It’s around one (1) kilometer. The wind and the coconut tree will be welcome you when you visit this place. So silent and no worry, the first time when looking at his creation sound look magic, but it’s the art style of Mr. Madun.  So, when you looked at the broken TV, toys, helmets and anything in his creation, all trash or used good he found it in the forest. He carried it by himself.

Honestly, I can’t imagine a human can stay in the forest without a community with people or technology. I can’t exist if I have a life like that. I can be CRAZY, actually. He feels enjoy with his decision to live in his own place.

The most unique when visit this place, we will see something in his yard when we step in his yard before going to his simple house in the middle of his art. That looks like a snake with eyes made by two bottle caps, the head of a snake or dragon made by woods. He said most his art his created from several countries as England, Turkey, Italy, Hungary and Denmark. He said before the tragedy of Toba lake, he got a vision about that tragedy. That was why he made the Toba lake in his yard under the bridge and also the small island called Samosir.  
 
Poor me, I can’t stay longer on his place and heard about many unique stories with his own version about his creation. Our group should back to Tanjungpinang, because one of my friends should back to Batam island on the same day. So, we should end our tour in the Istana Jendela Pak Madun on Bintan island.

Do you interest to visit Istana Pak Madun? Let me help you with how to find this castle in Pak Madun. This located exactly in Pengudang Village, Bintan island, Indonesia. You need to spend time around more than one hour from Trikora beach (the longest beach in Bintan). This place is not far from Pengudang Bintan Mangrove. Access from the main road to get inside his place needs around 5 minutes if you are not gets lost.  You will find the bamboo gate. I guess it will not far from the way to enter the forest before arriving in his place. I wish one day I can visit in this place again to look if he made our statue as Blogger Kepri community and GENPI Kepri. He said he will make it if we (our group) passed the test. I don’t know the meaning of the test in his version.

  4. Surprise! I never know about this place before. It reminds me to novel series of trio detektif when i was a kid. They use second goods to build their secret place. But this one is more creative. I think mr. Madun has good sense of art and if he is educated, he could be a designer of yard, home n garden. But i didnt see mr. Madun pict at this post

  26. Secara eksplisit Pak Madun ingin menyampaikan protes kepada manusia yang lain ya, kenapa mereka membuang segala macam tidak pada tempatnya. Menurutku Pak Madun ini jenius, bisa mengekspresikan maksudnya melalui cara yang antimainstream. Tapi jujur misal harus ke sana sendiri aku ngeri mbaaa...
