Rujak Natsepa, Tanjung Setan and Kota Tua

The damage of some houses along the main street in Ambon was clearly seen. Ongen, our tour guide regretted, "We lived in peace because Ambonese always love peace. Unfortunately, some irresponsible people messed up this place".

I do hope, things will recover soon as Ambon is a beautiful place to visit. Pantai Natsepa with its famous 'Rujak', Kota Tua, and the one of excellent diving sites--Tanjung Setan.

Unfortunately I don’t have enough time to explore Ambon. But I do hope that I’ll come back again soon...

After the riots

A damage house

There was a sad feeling when I passed the main steet From Pattimura airport to Astika Hotel. Damage houses as if become the witness of what happened in the past.

You've found things on your first visit which I haven't!!! Will have to look for the place with papeda (did you eat that?) and Pulau Ambon T-shirts next time I am there!
