Soon, Dayang Sumbi found out that it was not deer lever but Tumang’s dog. So, She was furious
and hit Sangkuriang’s head. In that incident, Sangkuriang got wounded, and a scar was cast away
from their home.

beautiful woman and fell in love with her. When they were discussing their wedding plans, the
woman looked at the wound on Sangkuriang’s head. It matched her son’s wound, who had left
several years earlier. Soon she realized that she had fallen in love with her son.
She couldn’t marry him, but how to say it? Then, she found the way. She needed a lake and a
boat to celebrate their wedding day. Sangkuriang had to make them one night before sunrise. He
built a lake. With dawn just a moment away, the boat was almost complete. Dayang Sumbi had
to stop it. Then, she lit up the eastern horizon with flashes of light. It made the cock crowded for
a new day.
Sangkuriang failed to marry her. He was outraged and then kicked the boat. It felt over and
became the mountain of Tangkuban Perahu Bandung.

Bawang Merah Bawang Putih

Once upon a time, in a small village in Indonesia, there lived two sisters named Bawang Merah
and Bawang Putih. Bawang Merah was known for her wickedness and jealousy, while Bawang
Putih was known for her kindness and beauty.
Their mother had passed away when they were young, and their father had remarried a cruel and
wicked stepmother who favored Bawang Merah and treated Bawang Putih poorly.

One day, the stepmother asked Bawang Putih to go to the river and wash some clothes. Bawang
Putih obediently did as she was told and went to the river. While she was washing the clothes, a
magic fish appeared and asked her why she was crying. Bawang Putih told the fish about her
troubles and how her stepmother treated her badly.

The magic fish gave her a magical flower and told her to keep it safe. Bawang Putih returned
home and showed the flower to her sister, Bawang Merah. However, Bawang Merah became
jealous and stole the flower, hoping to use it for her own benefit.

The next day, Bawang Merah went to the river to wash some clothes, and the magic fish
appeared to her. But instead of asking why she was crying, the fish scolded her for her
wickedness and told her that she would be punished for her actions.

The magic flower that Bawang Merah had stolen from her sister turned into a stone, and she was
unable to remove it from her hand. She became known as “Bawang Merah Berbatu” or “Onion
with a Stone,” while Bawang Putih’s kindness and beauty earned her the nickname “Bawang
Putih Bersih” or “Clean Garlic.”

In the end, Bawang Putih married a kind and wealthy prince, while Bawang Merah was left alone
to suffer the consequences of her actions. The story teaches the importance of kindness, honesty,
and compassion, and the consequences of greed and jealousy.

woman waving at him from the shore. She was none other than his mother, who had been
searching for him for many years. Malin Kundang was ashamed of his humble origins and
refused to acknowledge her, instead ordering his crew to set sail and leave the shore.

by lightning and turned into a stone statue.

Roro Jonggrang
Long ago, in the land of Central Java, there lived a powerful king named Prabu Baka. He was a
cruel and selfish ruler who cared only about his own desires and pleasures. One day, he decided
to build a grand temple to showcase his wealth and power. He ordered his subjects to work day
and night, using all of their strength to build the temple.
But the people were exhausted and could not continue their work. So, the king made a deal with
a powerful demon named Bandung Bondowoso. He promised to give the demon the most
beautiful woman in the land, Roro Jonggrang, in exchange for his help in completing the temple.
Bandung Bondowoso agreed to the deal and used his supernatural powers to complete the
temple in a single night. But when the king refused to honor his end of the bargain and give him
Roro Jonggrang, the demon became furious.
With his powers, Bandung Bondowoso turned Roro Jonggrang into a statue and placed her in
the temple, where she became known as Durga, the goddess of destruction. When the king
discovered what had happened, he was filled with regret and pleaded with the goddess to forgive
him and bring Roro Jonggrang back to life.
Durga agreed to forgive the king, but she refused to release Roro Jonggrang from her statue
form. Instead, she demanded that the king build a thousand temples in honor of the goddess and
her worshippers. The king agreed and built the temples, one after another, until he reached the
final temple.
At this temple, he was assisted by Roro Jonggrang’s spirit, who urged him to stop building
before he could complete the thousandth temple. And so, to this day, the final temple remains
incomplete, a symbol of the king’s greed and the power of the supernatural forces that can be
unleashed by such greed.

As the time went by, finally a queen gave birth to a very pretty princess whose skin was as white
as snow and whose lips were as red as blood. The queen grew up as a very pretty and kind-
hearted girl. She was called Snow White. However, when Snow White was a teenager, the queen
died because of an illness. After the queen's death, the king married again. This new queen was
wicked and hated Snow white. The queen gave orders that Snow White was to be treated as a
servant.

Everyday the queen stood in front of her magic mirror while asking "Who is the most beautiful
woman in the land?" and the mirror always answered, "You are the most beautiful one of all."
The new queen asked the same question everyday and the mirror always answered the same
thing. But one day the mirror answered that the queen was so beautiful but Snow White was
much more beautiful than the queen. It made the queen so angry that she gave orders to one of
her Huntsmen to take Snow White into the woods and kill her.

The Huntsman had such a kind heart that he couldn't do the deed. He told her to run away. While
fleeing into the woods, she found a place in which seven dwarfs lived. Their house was small
and strange. Snow White entered the little house and found it very untidy. Then, she started to
clean up the entire house. In the upstairs she found seven little beds. She was so exhausted that
she stretched out on one of the beds. Not long after that, she was asleep on the bed.

When the Dwarfs came home they were surprised to find Snow White and after some argument,
decided to let her stay. She promised to cook and look after them. She lived there together
happily.

Unfortunately, The Queen discovered the place where Snow White was living and disguising
herself as a witch. She then took a poisoned apple and set out for the Dwarfs cottage. She gave
Snow White the poisoned apple to eat and as soon as she bit the apple, she sank into
unconsciousness.

Thinking she was dead, the Dwarfs built a glass coffin and put her in it. For days she lay in the
forest in her glass coffin. One day, the Prince was riding through the forest looking for Snow
White and found her. He leaned over and kissed her. She opened her eyes and sat up with a
smile. Everyone was happy at that time. The Prince took Snow White to his palace where they
were married and lived happily ever after.

Toba Lake
The Legend of Toba Lake tells the story of a young orphan farmer who lived in the northern part
of Sumatra. Syahdan, the young man, earned his living from farming and fishing. One day while
fishing, he caught a beautiful golden brown fish which transformed into a beautiful princess in
his hands. This princess was cursed to turn into a creature if touched by a human, due to
violating a prohibition. As a result of the young man touching her, she became a princess.
Mesmerized by her beauty, the young man proposed to her. She agreed, but with the condition
that he must never reveal her origin as a fish. He agreed to this condition, and they got married
and had a son. However, the son had a bad habit of always wanting more food and eating
everything in sight.
One day, the son ate all the food that was supposed to be for his father, and in his anger, the
young man revealed the secret of his wife’s origin. This broke his promise and caused his wife
and son to disappear. From the land where they had stood, springs emerged, and the water from
these springs continued to flow and grow larger, eventually becoming the vast Toba Lake that we
know today.
