Wologito Homestay is a modern three-bedroom house owned by the Said family.
It is clean and well maintained, since the house was intended for the family to stay when they are in Semarang.
The house was then opened to relatives and close friends who needed appropriate accommodation in town during peak seasons.
Later, requests came from those knowing this homey guest-house, so the family decided to open the house to other guests by reservation only.

The best and fastest way to move in Semarang, especially if you are in a group, is by using a taxi. The fare is relatively cheap compared to those in other countries. Here are some cab companies available in Semarang.
This is an old building, built during the Dutch colonial era. It has many doors. In Javanese language, lawang means 'door' and sewu means '(a) thousand'. That is how the Javanese express something which means 'a lot' or 'many'.
This is a site where you will find nine small Hindu temples. In Javanese, gedong means 'building' while songo means 'nine'.
These temples are scattered on the steep side of Mount Ungaran. Its location is typical of Hindu temples, very difficult to reach. I think the old Javanese Hindus tried to remind us that it is not easy to communicate with the God. Serious and special effort is needed to do it.
