Brilio.net - It is common knowledge that in the past, the Dutch once colonized Indonesia. Therefore the Netherlands has a special attachment to our Motherland. Having colonized and officially leaving after recognizing Indonesia's independence, the Dutch in fact not only brought various natural riches, but also memories.
The memories were so attached that in this land of windmills a settlement was created in the middle of the sea called Java Island. In Dutch, the island is called Java Eiland.
The island of Java in the Netherlands is not as large as that in Indonesia. The island is just a small reclaimed island connected by a bridge.
The island of Java in the Netherlands also has large buildings in the form of luxury hotels and restaurants. Apart from that, on this island there are also many street names taken from regions in Indonesia.
What does Java Eiland or Java Island look like in the Netherlands, and what are the Indonesian regional names used as street or building names there? Here are nine portraits that you can find, reported by brilio.net from the TikTok video @jerhemynemoo, Tuesday (14/5). Check it out!
