Unique Games Of Indonesia:ENGKLENG or ENGKLEK

-


   "Engkleng" or "Engklek" is one of indonesia's unique traditional games.
Engkleng or better  known by the name as Engklek, usually the javanese call it name Engkleng. Because Engkleng or Engklek from java indonesia,the term Engkleng or Engklek it's means standing on one leg and starting to jump over the game box drawn on the ground.

 This engkleng or Engklek game is generally played by 2 until 5 girls or boys and this is done on the home lawn or anywhere else that has a large yard. However, before we begin this game we must draw a box on the asphalt or ground and draw 5 rectangles that are vertically drawn  then on the right and left lines again a rectangles.

 And don't forget about that every player must have the name "Gacho". Gacho or gachoan is an object or tool used for this game, if there is no gacho or gachoan the name isn't engkleng or engklek.

 Gacho or gachoan itself is a stone or ceramic object that has a weight when thrown into a square box image. If you use a gacho or gachoan  that has a light weight, it will be troublesome for you when throwing a gacho or gachoan into a square box image. Because light object will be easily be blown off, so that they will make a gacho or gachoan out of the square box image.
