LAWANG SEWU......

Lawang Sewu or Thousands Windows is an old Dutch Office Building from Colonial Era in Indonesia. Later when Japanese come, the basement was use to torture the Indonesian patriots with brutally. So then now, this building become scary building, some say, many ghost trapped here.

But to me, when I entered the basement, I see the beauty of clever engineering building from the Dutch. The soil here is so wet, like swamp so then they build unique foundation. It looks like many water container inside, so they use the water itself to weighting and stabilize the foundation. And they try to build the building with many windows and doors to reduce weight of building because of brick walls and concretes. It is so clever! Love it!!!
