Night at the Museum: 10 April 2007




The excursion was organized by the Sahabat Museum (Friends of Museum) group. went there with irev, yolla, anne, and emier and of course other hundred museum lovers or desperate-single-looking-for-a-cute-guy people.
The museum was originally for Nederlands Handelsmaatschappij. Built in 1930. It now becomes a museum of mandiri bank. It is nice to see how things worked in the past. They even have a huge old accounting book ( from 1900 I guess) for Indonesian land products. Very interesting collection. Many signboards are of course still in Dutch.The ground floor, is for collections of safe deposit box.
What I like most are the old phone, clock, round lamps, bicycle collection, the marble tiles, and the old architecture with stained glass art and very big windows made of teak wood.

There are rumours that this building is full of ghosts ieuuuuw. it was kind of creepy for me. But nothing happened of course. We were their friends :-))
