Voice of the Visitors
A village that has been designated as a heritage site. Many of the ancient buildings are well-maintained, while others are poorly maintained, but still quite attractive for photos thanks to their overgrown vegetation. However, most of the second floors are used as swallow houses. Some are for sale, perhaps someone would like to experience the atmosphere of living in a heritage area. The best time to visit is in the afternoon or evening, as there are many food and drink vendors.

It's just a village that's not as big as the old town of Semarang, very few people visit here, but just to know, you can see the atmosphere of the packaging village which is located not far from Bandar Grisse.

The ancient house is still well-maintained and beautiful. It's just that it wasn't possible to explore it during the Eid al-Adha holiday. Hopefully, there'll be another opportunity.
