The concept of defense by building the castle and cave is done by the Japanese along the coast and hills in Aceh.

Take a look along the beaches of Lhokseumawe, Sabang and other beaches, you will easily find the remains of the remains of Japan.

So is the cave. Especially in Lhokseumawe, throughout 1942, the Japanese army forced hundreds of Acehnese to build fortresses and caves imageonce entered Aceh, Japan decided to build a defense center in the hills of Blang Payang Village, Muara Dua District, Lhokseumawe City.

Even in some caves there is a detention room that is just enough to stand one person. These prisoners are left standing for 24 hours in a day.

I found your post to be fascinating, I am somewhat of a history buff with WWII as a particular interest. I was not actually aware that parts of Aceh were occupied.

To me turning these into tourist attractions is smart, because it is dangerous to forget your past. It is a reminder of how important sovereignty is, and that freedom is a fire to be maintained.
