I would like to tell you about my hometown Surabaya. It’s located on the most dense populated Island of Indonesia. This city is the second largest city in Indonesia and it’s also the capital city of east java. This city has grown rapidly in and also you can find a lot of interesting things such as foods, tourism objects and also education institutions and universities.
The first interesting thing of Surabaya is its food. There are two kinds of foods that can only be found in this city. The first food is Rujak Cingur. This kind of rujak is different from the kind of rujak found in Bandung because it doesn’t only contain fruits but it also added with various kinds of vegetables and meat. Its sauce is also a bit different too, because its added by Petis. The second food is Semanggi Surabaya. By its name we can guess that this food comes from Surabaya. It’s made of semanggi leafs that is mixed together with peanut sauce and added with chips. But unfortunately, recently these foods has become quite rare because almost no body sells it anymore.
The second interesting thing in Surabaya is a submarine on land. Actualy this submarine is already unoperational. Then the government of Surabaya decided to locate it in the centre of the city next to Delta Plaza mall and named it as Pasopati. It became one of surabaya’s most popular tourism object. this is interesting because we can enter and see the interior of the submarine. If you want to visit this object then you will have to pay 15.000 rupiah for each person.
The last interesting thing that I would like to tell is about its education institution. As one of the most rapidly growing cities, Surabaya has two of the best university in Indonesia. The first is Airlangga University (Unair). This university is one of the oldest unversity in Indonesia, and since the 1970’s Unair has become a member of the top five university of Indonesia because of its medical faculty. The second is Surabaya Institute of Technologi (ITS). Even though it is not as old as Unair but it also one of the best institute in Indonesia because its graduated students have given a lot of contribution for the rapid growth of technology in Surabaya.
I think that is a bit about my hometown Surabaya, and I hope you will be interested to visit Surabaya because you will not regret it. Have a nice visit.
Good, thanks for posting.
