LAWANG SEWU, as A MYSTERY TOUR

Old building located in Semarang, Central of Java, Indonesia. Many local and foreign tourists suck up to visit him. Perhaps because of the shape of the building is so large, old or because there are many myths of the people who heard about this Lawang Sewu that attracts visitors. Lawang Sewu comes from Java language, which means a thousand doors. The building is called mace sewu because it has a door that is very much even though the door was not up to a thousand. Lawang Sewu is a historic landmark built by the Dutch colonial government, on February 27, 1904. The building was originally established for use as Office of Private Railway Company NIS. But because there are some constraints that hinder its development then all eventually stalled and is now used for tourist place even though the building was pretty much saving a mystery. I got some pictures when I visited (click the pic. if you want to see the original one).
