The old town art heritage of the Dutch heritage of semarang

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

The old town is a piece of history, because from this capital city of Central Java is derived. Semarang and the old city are like two sides of the coin that could not be separated. And of course this presents its own uniqueness. A gradation of the sort rarely exists when two generations are put together to create beautiful gradation..

Kota Lama adalah potongan sejarah, karena dari sinilah ibukota Jawa Tengah ini berasal. Semarang dan Kota Lama seperti dua sisi mata uang yang tak bisa dipisahkan begitu saja. Dan tentu saja ini menghadirkan keunikan tersendiri. Sebuah gradasi yang bisa dibilang jarang ada ketika dua generasi disatukan hingga menciptakan gradasi yang cantik sebenarnya.

Basically the old Town area of Semarang or often called Outstadt or Little Netherland cover every area where the buildings built since the time of Netherlands. However over time the term of the old city itself is centered to the area of the river Mberok to go to Terboyo.

Pada dasarnya area Kota Lama Semarang atau yang sering disebut Outstadt atau Little Netherland mencakup setiap daerah di mana gedung-gedung yang dibangun sejak zaman Belanda. Namun seiring berjalannya waktu istilah kota lama sendiri terpusat untuk daerah dari sungai Mberok hingga menuju daerah Terboyo.

In general character of the buildings in this area follow the buildings in Europe around the year 1700 's. It can be seen from the details of the typical buildings and ornaments that are synonymous with European style. As the size of the Windows and doors are unusually large, the use of glass-stained glass, a unique roof form, until the existence of the basement. This is certainly arguably reasonable due to the fact the area was built when the Netherlands come. Of course they take a concept from their country of origin to be built in Java n. bene new place them. Of course they're trying to make this area feels like home to their communities.

Secara umum karakter bangunan di wilayah ini mengikuti bangunan-bangunan di benua Eropa sekitar tahun 1700-an. Hal ini bisa dilihat dari detail bangunan yang khas dan ornamen-ornamen yang identik dengan gaya Eropa. Seperti ukuran pintu dan jendela yang luar biasa besar, penggunaan kaca-kaca berwarna, bentuk atap yang unik, sampai adanya ruang bawah tanah. Hal ini tentunya bisa dibilang wajar karena faktanya wilayah ini dibangun saat Belanda datang. Tentunya mereka membawa sebuah konsep dari negara asal mereka untuk dibangun di Semarang yang nota bene tempat baru mereka. Tentunya mereka berusaha untuk membuat kawasan ini feels like home bagi komunitas mereka.

In terms of city planning, it is made with the Church concentrates Blenduk and Government offices as its Center. Why the Church? Because at that time the seat of Government in Europe is the Church and its Governor. The Church is involved in Government and vice versa.

Dari segi tata kota, wilayah ini dibuat memusat dengan gereja Blenduk dan kantor-kantor pemerintahan sebagai pusatnya. Mengapa gereja? Karena pada saat itu pusat pemerintahan di Eropa adalah gereja dan gubernurnya. Gereja terlibat dalam pemerintahan dan demikian pula sebaliknya.

However the form and whatever its function today, the old city is a valuable asset when packaged properly. A real history of Semarang and the history of Indonesia in General..

Bagaimanapun bentuknya dan apapun fungsinya saat ini, Kota Lama merupakan aset yang berharga bila dikemas dengan baik. Sebuah bentuk nyata sejarah Semarang dan sejarah Indonesia pada umumnya.
