This is the icon of Surabaya, just like Monas of jakarta.... unless you're jogging or cycling then go head visit the place. But if you're using a car, there is no nearby parking spot, and to cross the street is very hot, hectic... Just go around or take picture from across the street

Well, indeed this monument and the museum has historical story for the next generations. The museum quite nice actually, but do not visit it on Sunday. as too crowd of children, and the AC seems not running.
