Sunday August 01, 2010, the condition forced me to go back to Jakarta using train. Formerly, our plan was going back to Jakarta using airplane from Ahmad Yani Airport Semarang. Well, well, well. So our destination was to reach Semarang Tawang Railway Station. Alhamdulillah, I am very familiar with the condition around Semarang, since I had ever studied in Diponegoro University for years. And, train was my main transportation from Jakarta to Semarang.
The situation of Semarang Tawang Railway station is not changing much. I like the old building of this station which was created during the era of Netherlands occupation of Indonesia. The architecture is very unique. It creates a unique sense different with modern building. Well, I love it.
Hmm, I still remember 'my favourite transit', the mushalla. This place is the first destination when I reached Semarang after having travel from Jakarta. Yup, going to pray. Or, if I reached Semarang in the early morning, this place was my lovely place while waiting for the sunrise and continue my travel to Tembalang. Yup, waiting for praying subuh and for the sunrise.
Semarang Tawang Railway Station really has an interesting memory for me. Someday, I will travel and show this station and the memories lie behind this station to my beloved wife. I will show her my lovely memories...:)
