Toko Merah (Red Shop), not even a shop....

Toko Merah (Red Shop), relics of colonial architecture in Jakarta

Toko Merah (Red Shop), located at Jl. Kali Besar Barat 11, Kota Tua, West Jakarta

Red Shop, considering the name, automatically we hope to buy something in this place. But it turns out Red Shop is not even a shop ... wkwkwk

Candra Naya : Traces of Chinese history in the capital city Jakarta

Batavia history witnesses, hidden by the jungle of Jakarta's hi-rise buildings...


When invited to visit Candra Naya, I spontaneous ask, what is it? Where is it? And the answer "A historic building on Gajah Mada street" instead makes clear, has raised more questions ... What? There is a historic building at Gajah Mada street? The hell? Where? I have been crossed Gajah Mada street many times, but never seen any historic building named Candra Naya.... And I believe I'm not the only one who doesn't know ^^


Candra Naya located in the middle of Novotel Hotel, Jl.Gajah Mada 188, Jakarta

Autumn is coming to Minoh

Morning walk - Early autumn at Minoh park


That morning, Umeda station had been busy and crowded already... wanted to briefly leave the bustle of Osaka. Let's go to Minno, ride Takarazuka line subway only about 30 minutes from Osaka. Minoh park is famous for its "koyo" (autumn foliage), located not far from Minoo station.
