The government seriously needs to advertise these kinds of place more. When i was there the only other visitors i've seen was some high schoolers probably visited the museum only because their school assignment. Indonesia Ministry of Tourism, you can do better!! This country's culture is mesmerizing and the fact that the entire wold are missing on this is a shame.

A very historic place for Indonesia. We can get a lot of information from this museum (Tadashi maeda's house). You must visit this museum.
