During our last visit to Solo, we went to visit the homeland of the Java Man, Museum Manusia Purba Sangiran.

C really wanted to visit this museum, since he has been fascinated with fossils and dinosaurs for some time now. He has books on this topic and reads them everyday.

Excited by the prospect of seeing fossils, we arrived at the site. The museum was divided into several rooms. The first room in the museum showed fossils of the Java Man, Crocodiles and Buffalos that were found in Sangiran area. The second room showed the digging process itself. Here we could learn how fossils were found and dug. The third room was about the Java Man. Replicas of the Java Man and the way he lived was the main item of this room.

However, it turned out that the Java Man looked scary to C. He was scared throughout the museum tour. Such a pity..
