Soloevent.id – Starting on December 8, 2018, visitors who will enter De Tjolomadoe get charged a ticket IDR 25 thousand. The free tickets end!!
Director of PT Sinergi Colomadu (manager of De Tjolomadoe), Rachmat Priyatna, said the policy was taken for De Tjolomadoe’s revitalization, maintenance, and operations.
“The energy cost takes much. This is a large factory building. We cannot change the construction model. It is a cultural preserve. We need so many AC to make it cooler,” he explained in the inaugurating of De Tjolomadoe Museum on Saturday (12/08/2018).
If you only want to stay outside the main building, you don’t need a ticket. “For example, there is an event at Sarkara Hall or hold a dinner at Besali Cafe, visitors no need to pay for entrance tickets because they already taken the package,” explained Rachmat.
Buy the ticket at the Goela gift shop in front of the main building entrance. FYI, it is promo session! Buy a ticket get free drink.
Many netizens responded on this policy when Soloevent update it on Instagram. “Luckily, we went there when it was free :”) @sekartw,” @heyassdias said. “Are you kidding me? IDR 25,000?” wrote @khasani_lpamb. The @masperass account argues, “It will be close soon.”
However, Rachmat is sure that many people will visit the ex-Colomadu Sugar Factory. Moreover, there is a new spot. De Tjolomadoe Museum, a museum with the latest packaging that displays the histories of PG Colomadu. “Now, visitors can not only get ‘entertainment’ by taking pictures in the De Tjolomadoe area but also can get knowledge about the history of this sugar factory,” he said.
