This site pays to tribute the horrific perios in 1965 when seven high-ranking Indonesian military personnel were brutally tortured by the notorious Indonesian Communist Party (PKI). Formerly the site of PKI's training and assembly center, it now feartures a monument, a diorama museum, the well where bodies were thrown during the rebellion and a hall of relics. The exhibition celebrates the ultimate victory of Pancasila over communism. Some of the displays, however, are rather disturbing. The name Lubang Buaya (Crocodile Hole) comes from a legend that there were once white crocodiles in the nearby river.
It is located in Cipayung, East Jakarta. If you wanna go there, you must have Rp. 12.000 to go inside. In there, you can see the plot of how brave that seven men till they were thrown into the Crocodile Hole (Lubang Buaya). Many statues that showing the brave they are. There are also statues depicting the 7th general. The statues stand around the statue of the eagle in the middle. On the front there is a hole where the removal of the generals. And beyond, there is a garden that visitors to relax off fatigue. Oh I forgot, on the left (if you are from the entrance) there is a house which contains the statues that be a picture when they are putting together a plan with the other residents.
Be there if you really wanna know about the history of them. God bless!
