Charming Kota Lama Semarang

On Thursday 19 February 2026, Ranz and I went to Kota Lama, which was first established by Dutch Colonial goverment long long time ago. Kota Lama is one popular tourist destination in Semarang, besides Lawangsewu.

Luckily, when we arrived, we saw a group of people 'swarming around' one cafe that we always visit when we go to Kota Lama. There were many of them, maybe more than 50 people altogether. They spoke Chinese so I believe they were foreign tourists. I felt excited to see this, to witness that Kota Lama is so popular that it also attracts tourists from abroad! Some news I read online informed that after there is a direct flight from Semarang to Kuala Lumpur, there are more and more tourists coming from Malaysia to Semarang.
