Question

Telaga Warna The king of a famous kingdom in Cipanas, West Java, was very wise man. He had a beautiful daughter. The king and queen loved their daughter so much.

But all their love was not enough for the princess. Eventhough they gave her everything, she was not happy. All the jewelries that they had were not enough for her. She was not satisfied with her gorgeous look either.

The princess then had an idea. She planned to put all the jewelries that they had in every single hair in her head. She wanted to be the most beautiful girl in the world.

So the princess went to see her mother and father and told them about her plan. She was very sure they would not say no.

The king was surprised to hear about his daughter plan. He tried to convince her that her plan was not proper.

"My Daughter, the beauty ofa princess is not measured by her clothes or by the jewelry she is wearing, but by her attitude. It's not because we don't love you, but what will people think if you go through with your plan?" said the king.

The princess was shocked to hear that. So she ran to her room to get her jewelry box. Then she returned to her parents.

She screamed: "You are so miserely. Here, I am returning the every single jewelry you ever gave me." She threw her jewelry box to her father.
The wise king was outraged seeing his daughter did.
"You are an ungrateful daughter!" Suddenly, the floor of the palace erupted and water poured out from the crack. In a matter of second, the palace flooded, drowning the ungrateful princess and her jewelry. The palace then turned into a lake. The lake always reflects multiple colors to its surrounding. Some say the colors come from the princess's jewelry. The lake is known as Telaga Warna that means colorful lake.
