Tulungagung is 3 hours drive - southern of Surabaya. This is the place
where my mom was born. And this the place of Fokker was born. This city
keeps alot of things to see including the Dutch Sugar Factory -
Modjopanggung and the silver bridge on Brantas river.
Some of the sugar factories in West Java are already demolished... Too bad, all the dutch colonial houses are gone for nothing... (T_T)
ReplyDeleteyes, amazingly old town house in Tulungagung are still well preserved. Dats why am proud of my little city. It's clean and so peaceful.....Many things I haven't explored yet....But going to sugar factories and seeing the lorry train....was a moment to remember. You should go there someday......
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Sugar Factory since my Dad was a chief Engineer there. That's why I love Dutch Colonial Buildings !!! The sugar factory that I had been living was already vanished... nothing left !!! I missed the long lorries, the locomotives, the sugar cane field... (T_T)
ReplyDeletewow what a coincidence....it must be exciting, what sugar factory did you live at? You must have a bunch of old memories had taken in the past.....
ReplyDeleteI used to live at Sugar Factory in Jatiwangi and Kadipaten... They'are gone... (T_T)
