Gayo Lues
Gayo Lues Regency is a regency in the Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam province of Indonesia. Its capital is Blangkejeren. The regency covers an area of 5,719 square kilometres and according to the 2000 census had a population of 60,800 people.
90% of the inhabitants make their living from farming. Products include chili peppers, tobacco, coffee, and lemongrass, fish, rice, candle nut, pataculi, coconut, vanilla, kapok, chocolate, sugarcane, ginger, clove, casslevera, turmeric, and sugar palm. Logging is reportedly a major problem in the regency which is the least populated area of the province with less than 2% of the total population.
Weh Island
Weh Island or Pulau Weh or Pulo Weh (by the local population commonly referred to only as "Sabang", the name of the largest city) is a small active volcanic island to the northwest of Sumatra. It was originally connected to the Sumatran mainland and became separated by sea after the volcano's last eruption in the Pleistocene era.[1] The island is situated in the Andaman Sea. The largest city on the island, Sabang, is the northernmost outpost of Indonesia.
The island is known for its ecosystem; the Indonesian government has declared 60 square kilometres (23 sq mi) of inland and sea around the island as a wildlife protection area. A rare megamouth shark species was found on shore and the island is the only habitat for the threatened toad, Bufo valhallae (genus Bufo). Coral reef areas around the island are known for their large variety of fish species.

Traveling to Pulau Weh
There is a ferry which also conveys vehicles that leaves from Malahayati (Banda Aceh's sea port) daily to Pulau Weh. The ferry ride takes around two and half hours to Sabang, the sea port on Pulau Weh.
Wildlife on Weh includes monkeys, wild boar, monitor lizards and wide selection of colourful butterflies. North of Iboih is protected forest. At the northern end of Weh is a monument to commemorate where Indonesia officially begins. Pulau Rondo is actually the real start just north of Weh. There is also good snorkeling and diving on Rondo
Traveling to Gayo
Traveling to Gayo plateau, in Central Aceh, Indonesia, is one of the best choosing for your holiday. Gayo Land is the main tourist destination in this country. We can enjoy beautiful mountainous landscape and Laut Tawar Lake.
The lake is in one thousand and two hundred meters above sea level, located on the east of the Takengon City.
The Laut Tawar Lake comes from the hilly surroundings and its bluish water. As an eco tourism destination, this lake becomes an attraction for domestic and foreign tourists.
There have been several tourism supporting means like the motor boats to take passengers around the lake and the lakeside hotels, as well as surrounding restaurants.
We also can enjoy tropical rainforests and coffee plantation. Dont worry with facilities. In Takengon City, there are two hospitals. This is Hospital Datu Beru which is located in Kebayakan street. Other facilities include bank, markets, and mosque. For stay, there are 12 hotels in Takengon.
