Fresh and Comfortable Houses from Ancient Relics

"Rumoh Aceh" is a traditional house built by the people of Aceh since the first, houses withstand earthquakes, flood disaster, and has always been clean air circulation. The toilet was built outside the house with a distance of 5 meters and is clean. The people of Aceh have been living in this house since hundreds of years ago. The roof made of dried palm leaf, making the atmosphere cool and fresh when we were inside the house.

Ornament was decorated as beautiful as possible, at the bottom of the house there is a "djingki" (tool to grind grains into rice), and beside him there is a giant barrel to store grain that is gained from the harvest. The house facing to the west, as a form of respect to religion, because the direction of Qibla in Aceh is located to the west. And when the owner of the house praying, it will be facing west. In addition to follow the direction of the sunrise and sunset.

A lot of memories in this house, now rebuilt into a museum and library.
