My Hometown (Beautiful Places in My Life)




my hometown in the city of Palembang.  Located in dr. M. Isa street  Fajar alley, eight ilir, Kuto Batu, Palembang, South Sumatera.  wooden house which is populated by three heads of the family is the most beautiful place in my life. There I grew up, although it's just an old a wooden house but I'm very happy to be there because there  it's always crowded filled by younger brothers and sisters , nieces and nephews who are always happy to play together, so every time I go there I feel like I do not want to go home to Bandar Lampung again.

My hometown is near the market called Kuto market, so it is a dense area. Until the evenings is still many children who play under the light of moon. And in my hometown is also one of the largest Arabian ethnic majority, in Palembang. But many also Palembang ethnic, Chinese and Javanese who settle there.So the area was often called by palembang citizens as the "Ayib Village" which means Arabian village.
