Hobbiton, When You Look Deeper

Saya sudah bercerita tentang Hobbiton dan betapa mempesonanya salah satu lokasi shooting film Lord Of The Rings tersebut. Namun Hobbiton bukan hanya untuk dilihat dan dinikmati sekilas saja, banyak hal dan detail menarik saat anda memperhatikan lebih jauh, lebih teliti.

I've talked about Hobbiton and how dazzling this Lord of The Rings movie set. However Hobbiton isn't only to be seen and enjoy in a glimpse, a lot of interesting thing will came up even more when you pay attention to details.

Lokasi ini ditata sedemikian rupa sehingga seakan akan hobbit masih tinggal disini, hanya saja mereka sedang pergi entah kemana. Hobbiton tidak terlihat seperti desa yang terlantar, ditinggal lama. Semua detail seakan akan menunjukkan adanya kehidupan sehari hari, mulai dari handuk yang dijemur di pagar, bunga bunga yang tumbuh segar (dan semuanya asli), labu dan berbagai buah di depan rumah, gerobak di sisi jalan, kebun yang masih tampak setengah digarap, semua menunjukkan "aktivitas hobbit" yang seakan masih ada.

This location is laid out in such a way that somehow seemed like that the hobbits are still trully living here, but they might seems like going somewhere. Hobbiton village does not look like abandoned place. All details indicates the presence of their daily lives,  from towel on the fence, fresh flowers (and everything is real), variety of fruit in front of the house, wagon on the side of the road, the garden still looked half tilled, all show "activities" that seemed still exist.

Juga, jika anda beruntung anda mungkin diizinkan untuk sedikit mengintip ke dalam rumah hobbit disini. Well, I got lucky, walaupun apa yang ada di dalam berbeda dari apa yang kita bayangkan. Bagaimanapun juga, Hobbiton is a charm, hingga sekarang saat saya melihat foto foto lokasi ini masih selalu tampak surreal karena keindahan dan keunikannya.

Also, if you are lucky you may be allowed for a little peek into the hobbit house here. Well, I got lucky, though what is inside is different from what we might imagine. However, Hobbiton is a charm, until today when I saw photos from this location, it still always seems surreal due to its beauty and uniqueness. 

Even though its not so real inside, who doesn't love the view here? :)

All seems so real

Overhill or Bagshot Row?
