MUSEUM WAYANG

     This week I want to tell about Museum Wayang that I have seen it on Elshinta tv. Museum Wayang is located not far from Museum Sejarah Jakarta or Museum Fatahillah. The building, built by VOC in 1640, used to be an abiding church. Several changes happened along the way until in 1974, the government of Jakarta at that time decided to make this building a Wayang Museum. The ticket price is only 2,000 rupiah for an adult or, 1,000 rupiah for a college student, and 600 for a student. This museum unveil the bunch of wayang kulit or leather puppets from different countries. Besides displaying wayang and puppets, Museum Wayang holds wayang golek, wayang kulit Betawi, and wayang Purwa performances every month.
