sawahlunto, west sumatera

Padang Trip
3-5 April 2015
Rita. Tiwi. Erni

Day 1

Landed at Minangkabau International Airport at 9.20am. Grab breakfast at Lapau Nanyo. Continue to Sawahlunto. Pit stop at Pondok Kopi Kawa Daun (Kopi Kawa Daun is made from coffee leaf). Lunch at Dendeng Batokok.

Sawahlunto is a small town with rich history, located in a valley. Love the vibe, the air, and the ambience.

We spent the whole afternoon visiting famous spots at Sawahlunto: silo (coal storage), Lubang Suro, Infobox (Galeri Tambang Batubara), Museum Kereta Api (too bad the famous Mak Itam was not in operation due to machine failure), Museum Gudang Ransoem and Puncak Cemara. Had early dinner at Soto Urang Awak and some coffee at Societeit Cafe, located just across the street from Ombilin Hotel.
