PURWOREJO : The Little City any Story

A small city located in the province of Central Java, Purworejo name. One day, I and my father mother and brother idly went to this small town, going unplanned. As a result, we finally turned around unclearly. However, from the turn around, there is a little story of the history of independence that was raised by this small city through visualization of historic buildings such as one of Purworejo Station (turned into a museum). Not only historic, Purworejo is also attached to the term “Durian Purworejo” because it is the most delicious and famous producer of durian.


Sebuah kota kecil yang terletak di Provinsi Jawa Tengah, Purworejo namanya. Suatu hari, saya bersama bapak ibu dan adik iseng pergi ke kota kecil ini, pergi yang tidak direncanakan. Alhasil, sesampainya disana kami hanya muter muter tidak jelas. Namun, dari muter muter tidak jelas tersebut, ada sekelumit cerita sejarah pada masa kemerdekaan dulu yang dimunculkan oleh kota kecil ini lewat visualisasi bangunan bersejarah seperti salah satunya Sta. Purworejo (gambar diatas) yang sekarang beralihfungsi menjadi museum. Tidak hanya bersejarah, Purworejo pun melekat dengan sebutan “Durian Purworejo” karena sebagai penghasil durian paling enak dan terkenal.

Hello Mr. @TsekoV . Thank you for the suggestions and input. at that time i was just visiting The first time I wrote this I was confused about what to write about, so I wrote it down according to my first experience. In my opinion, I was interested in the photo of the station because I heard a story from a native there that this station was the first station in Purworejo during the Dutch colonial era. In accordance with the original building (heritage), Purworejo is also a small city that has produced many figures of struggle and also as an initiation city for Indonesia’s struggle against colonialism.
