• I'm going to review a place I visited last month with my friends. Alun Alun Surabaya, in the square area there are libraries, underground museums, mosques and many more. First, Library Alun Alun Surabaya. Before entering the library we have to register online, after that we are given locker keys by the clerk. The library is very comfortable and lots of books, even books for college are also available. Plus there is a place for children to learn and play. The facilities in the library are very comfortable, as are the computers which make it easier to find the books you need. • Besides the city library, I also visited the underground museum. In the underground museum there are various collections of interesting art, ranging from sculptures, puppets, and various paintings. In the museum we can take photos and read the interesting information that is there. In addition, the museum is very clean and well maintained. Visitors must also scan a protective care barcode and may not bring food or drinks. • Besides that, the mosque in the Alun-Alun area is no less interesting, the mosque is very clean and has a beautiful interior. Behind all that, it also has drawbacks, namely there are no seats for visitors in the square area, there is not even a place to take shelter from the hot sun of Surabaya. Even the cafe on the roof doesn't have an umbrella, even though the view from above is very good. But there is something that amazes me where when the call to prayer resounds, all activities in the...

There are also lots of photo spots, so all you have to do is choose where to take a photo. So for those of you who think that underground it must be hot, don't worry because it's an air-conditioned place so it's guaranteed you won't get too hot. Interestingly, when I was there, a photographer offered to take pictures of me and my friends. In the end, we gladly accepted the offer. After exiting the art gallery, the courtyard outside is no less splendid. With the nuances of the buildings there, there are also many good photo spots, but unfortunately the food court that was there at that time was not yet open even though it was already eleven o'clock in the afternoon. So many visitors return and fail to stop by...
