We know that Banyuwangi is one
of tourist most favourite place in our country (Indonesia), it’s called the
sunrise of java. Banyuwangi is located at straight line of east java

So many kind of histories that build an Banyuwangi city tobe famous city, one
of it, we can explore information and retalation of culture here. Banyuwangi
has two consist of culture diesently, it spiod of developers around the village
areal in Blambangan earth. First is javanese culture, and second is madures
culture, well i’d tell it you more spesific :
1. Javanese
culture
Factually, Banyuwangi has older name before “Banyuwangi”, named Blambangan.
Last time so many kingdoms were stayed and influence the lifestyle of citizen
arround here, for about 95% percentsm most of societies are hinduism, because
it was forced by many kind learns and believes that they held. They use
sansekerta language to cammunicate in daily, no one much word that write except
on the dried skin of animals. Instead, it use only for big families of kingdom,
except them, it had forbidden to use it.
Year after years past, when there was a kingdom named Blambangan, it held
by the powerhands of king minak jinggo,
alot of sansekerta language had lost steply, and changed into java language
that he brought. Everyday the had to
obey all the regulations he made.
He was very clever and smart to manage blambangan, at the time blambangan
kingdom was the strongest kingdom in java, all kingdoms arroud were affraid to
have an war with blambangan kingdom.
Not longer after many years, minak jinggo fell out of his power, he was
lost by damarwulan, and blambangan kingdom had worst monetary, because the lost
of the fighting between king minak jinggo and damarwulan.
Start its time java language developed quickly, and most of the villagers
entered tobe moslem, but althought like that, Whom are the blood of kingdom, so
they are called javanese.
2. Madures
culture
talking about this, we’ll remember to the hero of madura name
Pak Sakera, it has close relation lifestory of blambangan earth. For the first
time, after blambangan kingdom held by damarwulan, from all of the infact the
war and the lost of blambangan, damarwulan changed blambangan into bnyuwangi
city that it derrived from an history a beutiful girl that she would be love by
two handsome boy, but the end, she had to ended her life sadly with the
aromatic blood that outed from her body. At the time so many increasement of
economy and political, because so much comers from madura island to sell each
other in Banyuwangi. So that, right now many madures citizen stay in most of
area banyuwangi.
