Find out the Review among others
Sail Date: Jan 2024
Cabin: Penthouse Veranda Stateroom
We had cruised with Viking once before on the Rhine River Cruise and loved it! We chose this cruise because of the ship size, the leisure travel itinerary and the final stop at Stonehenge. We were so happy with everything -- the greeting at the airport when we arrived, the cleanliness of the ship, the food, the service, the entertainment, the availability of relaxation opportunities -- seating areas, libraries, games, the tours available. We tried all of the dining options and couldn't have been more pleased. Afternoon tea was wonderful. We truly believe the crew is happy to serve you! They went out of their way with kindness and service. My husband had had knee surgery, and everyone was caring, helpful and patient with him. We felt pampered and couldn't have asked for a better vacation. We look forward to enjoying another trip with Viking as soon as our schedules will allow.
Cabin Review
Penthouse Veranda Stateroom

The Komodo Dragon is the largest species of lizard in the world. They are 3-meter long and can weigh up to 150lbs.

The area has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for "containing the largest remaining area of lowland rainforests in Java", and also for possessing the most threatened species of rhino, the Javan rhino. It was designated before its formation as a national park.
The park fully encompasses the Ujung Kulon peninsula, along with surrounding islands and the Gunung Honje mountain range.
Ujung Kulon is one of three national parks in Java housing a lowland rainforest ecosystem, together with Baluran and Alas Purwo National Park. It therefore possesses a somewhat similar ecosystem, despite being much wetter than the latter due to the Köppen-Geiger climate classification, the latter being found on East Java instead.

175 species have been observed within the park, with 57 of them being protected, This includes mangroves (e.g. Sonneratia alba, Excoecaria agallocha, Rhizophora apiculata, Aegiceras corniculatum), coastal plants (e.g. Nypa fruticans, Calophyllum inophyllum, Terminalia catappa, Hibiscus tiliaceus, etc.), Figs (e.g. Ficus benjamina, Ficus deltoidea, Ficus racemosa, Ficus septica) and other lowland vegetation such as Oroxylum indicum, Melastoma malabathricum, Sterculia foetida, and Durio zibethinus. The park possesses three protected rare flora, namely Heritiera percoriacea, Vatica bantamensis, and Intsia bijuga. Rafflesia patma is also a notable species

The Javan rhinoceros is one of the smallest rhinoceros species, along with the Sumatran, or "hairy", rhinoceros. They are superficially similar to Indian rhinos, as they have plate-like, "armored" protective skin folds, but are slightly smaller, at just 3.1–3.2 m (10–10 ft) long and 1.4–1.7 m (4 ft 7 in – 5 ft 7 in) tall, on average. The heaviest specimens weigh around 2,300 kg (5,100 lb), similar to a black rhinoceros.

Visit Semarang
Landmark Of Semarang
Moreover, the location of the Samarang NIS station is near the swamp so sanitation and health matters are an important consideration. Then, another alternative was proposed: establishing an administrative office in a new location. The choice fell to the land which at that time was on the edge of the city adjacent to the residence of the Resident. It is located at the end of Bodjongweg Semarang (now Jalan Pemuda), at the corner of Bodjongweg and Samarang Naar Kendalweg (the road to Kendal). NIS entrusted the design of the NIS headquarters building in Semarang to Prof. Jacob F. Klinkhamer (TH Delft) and B.J. Quendag, the architect who is domiciled in Amsterdam. The entire design process was carried out in the Netherlands, and then the drawings were taken to the city of Semarang. Seeing from the Lawang Sewu blueprint it is written that the site plan and floor plan of this building were drawn in Amsterdam in 1903. Similarly, the complete working drawings were made and signed in Amsterdam in 1903. [soucre: wikipedia]
Lawang Sewu ("Thousand Doors") is a landmark in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia, built as the headquarters of the Dutch East Indies Railway Company. The colonial-era building is famous as a haunted house and filming location, though the Semarang city government has attempted to rebrand it.
Lawang Sewu building was built on February 27, 1904, under another name Het hoofdkantor van de Nederlands-Indische Spoorweg Maatschappij (NIS Head Office). Initially, office administration activities were carried out at Semarang Gudang Station (Samarang NIS), but with the rapid development of the rail network, resulting in an increase in technical personnel and administrative staff that was not small in line with the development of office administration. As a result, the NIS office at the Samarang NIS station is no longer sufficient. NIS's various solutions include renting several buildings owned by individuals as a temporary solution which adds to inefficiency.
