Maritime Museum - Old City of Jakarta

Maritim Museum or we call it as Museum Bahari is one of the oldest museum in Indonesia which collect so many artifact about Indonesia in the past time, esspecially sea or ship artifact. This time i will show you some picture which i take in the museum, actually this trip is part of my trip to gone to Old City of Jakarta, you can read the first story at here.

The first time we arrive at the museum area, we go up to the Syahbandar Tower. Back to the tower, this tower at least has 30 m in heigh. From this tower, we can look around of the Sunda Kelapa Harbour. Ups, i forgot to tell you, The Maritime Museum of Jakarta was located at north end of Jakarta, in Penjaringan District. This area is welknown as Sunda Kelapa Harbour.

Leaving Syahbandar Tower, the next place is the main building of Maritime Museum. Actually, the building of this museum is a Batavia Castle wich builded at 18th century. Befor we arived at the gate, we walk through a crowded traditional market, or we can say streed market or street vendors, or anything else you want. This crowde place actually make the area loos its identity, but... just forget it.

Since the building was builded at 18 century, we can see its old style. In the museum we can see at least 800 collection of ship and boat miniatur, esspecially the traditional type. Not only ship/boat miniature, this museum also has some  equipment used by sailors in the past like navigation, anchor, binoculars, lighthouse model and cannon. The interior design is still the same with its old time, you can see big wood as the pillar of this building.

Serakalan - Budaya Masyarakat Melayu Sambas

Bagi masyarakat Sambas, Serakalan adalah kata yang sangat familiar. Serakalan adalah salah satu bagian dari kebudayaan masyarakat Sambas, namun juga dikenal oleh beberapa masyarakat Islam lain di Indonesia. Kebudayaan ini masuk bersamaan dengan kedatangan Islam ke Indonesia. Beberapa waktu yang lalu dalam kunjungan saya ke Sambas sempat mengikuti acara Serakalan yang dilakukan di rumah salah satu keluarga jauh. Berada di tengah-tengah acara Serakalan tersebut benar-benar pengalaman baru bagi saya. Bersyukur juga budaya melayu ini masih dipertahankan masyarakat Sambas. Pada awalnya Serakalan merupakan wujud ekspresi ta’dzim yang berhubungan dengan peristiwa kedatangan Rasulullah hijrah di Madinah. Serakalan berisi syair-syair Pujian kepada Allah dan Rasul-Nya. Dalam istilah lain, ritual ini dapat pula disebut dengan Marhabanan atau “debaan” (Maulid Ad-Diba’iy). Pembaca Serekalan - Sambas Serakalan telah berkembang dikalangan masyarakat Sambas dan dikemas sedemikian rupa sehingga...

Tips Submit Artikel di Vivalog agar di Approve

Sudah bebeberapa artikel saya submit di vivalog , sudah beberapa kali malah, tapi tidak satu pun yang masuk dan di publish di sana. Rasanya agak frustasi juga (yang ringan saja), karena agak bertanya-tanya apa yang salah dari artikel saya. Saya pun mencari-cari apa yang salah dengan artikel yang saya submit di beberapa blog melalui google. Akhirnya karena tidak juga menemukan jawaban yang memuaskan saya melepas i-frame dari vivalog karena merasa ada ketidakadilan. Sementara saya memasang frame di blog saya, vivalog tidak menerima satupun artikel yang saya submit. Kemarin, saya mencoba kembali submit artikel di vivalog , Alhamdulillah, saya sangat bersyukur ternyata kali kemarin artikel saya bisa di approve dan di publish di vivalog.

Long House of Dipanimpan Bolong Nanga Nyabau, Heart of Borneo

The Nanga Nyabau Village Nanga Nyabau is one of the villages in Kapuas Hulu Regency, precisely in Embaloh Hulu district. It does’nt take a long time to visit this village from Putussibau*. Nanga Nyabau can be achieved in about 1 hour road trip. I have been to this village several times, but not with special intentions for traveling or backpacking. My arrival to this village was only to take my co-workers in the village of Nanga Lauk. Why go to Nanga Nyabau village? Its because the most plausible path to the village of Nanga Lauk is the river route starting from Nanga Nyabau downstream of the Palin River. After several visits, I learned that Nanga Nyabau Village has a betang house (long house) that has been designated as a cultural heritage object. While waiting for the boat pickup from Nanga Lauk, we visited the betang house in Nanga Lauk village on the advice of Rio. From where the car was parked, me, the nicke, elin, and aloy, walked across the suspension bridge that are very com...
