Top Architecture in Semarang

Keep your eyes peeled for the details in the architecture. Some parts are easy to miss if you're rushing. I think taking time to explore is what makes visiting Lawang Sewu special.

don't forget to explore the surrounding park! i missed it and heard it’s a nice place to relax and take photos... you might need to save some time for it later

I suggest wearing comfortable shoes. You’ll do a fair bit of walking around the mosque and its gardens, and flip-flops are a little slippery on the tiles.

My advice is to check out the museum that's part of the mosque complex. I almost skipped it, but it was super enlightening about the local culture and history.
