@acehtourismtravel: The Saman dance is part of the cultural heritage of the Gayo people of Aceh province in Sumatra. Boys and young men perform the Saman sitting on their heels or kneeling in tight rows. Each wears a black costume embroidered with colourful Gayo motifs symbolizing nature and noble values. The leader sits in the middle of the row and leads the singing of verses, mostly in the Gayo language. These offer guidance and can be religious, romantic or humorous in tone. Dancers clap their hands, slap their chests, thighs and the ground, click their fingers, and sway and twist their bodies and heads in time with the shifting rhythm – in unison or alternating with the moves of opposing dancers. These movements symbolize the daily lives of the Gayo people and their natural environment. 📸: @acehtourismtravel Don’t forget to use hashtag #cahayaaceh and mention us @acehtourismtravel @disbudpar_aceh or add hashtag #thelightofaceh for a chance to be feature. #pesonaindonesia #wonderfulindonesia #cahayaaceh ⁣⁣#thelightoaceh ⁣⁣#DiIndonesiaAja #PulauSabang #aceh
