Taman
Prestasi
can
be
freely
translated
as
the
Park
of
Achievement
is
situated
along
the
main
river
that
flows
through
the
city
center
of
Surabaya.
When
you
turn
left
from
the
main
street
after
the
Big
General
Soedirman
statue,
you
will
see
the
installment
of
a
fighter
plane.
If
you
go
through
the
main
entrance,
you
will
see
a
connecting
bridge
to
the
backyard
of
the
Presidential
Palace
called
Grahadi.
This
old
beautiful
Grahadi
also
functions
as
the
house
of
the
East
Java
governor
to
receive
important
guests.
If
you
really
care
about
the
history
of
the
city,
the
small
wharf
by
the
river
next
to
the
connecting
bridge
used
to
be
the
entry
point
of
the
building,
and
the
massive
lawn
which
is
now
the
front
yard
used
to
be
the
backyard.
The
connecting
bridge
is
of
course
locked
due
to
protocolar
reasons.
Kids
love
it
so
much
here
because
they
can
play
a
lot.
One
probably
good
thing
about
this
park
is
that
no
vendors
are
allowed.
This
park
is
one
among
the
very
few
that
is
strictly
patrolled
by
the
Satuan
Polisi
Pamong
Praja
or
the
Civil
Service
Police
Unit.
Under
this
circumstance,
you
can
rest
assured
that
your
kids
will
not
beg
for
balloons,
sweets,
kites,
molly
fish,
or
detergent
bubbles.
or
things
that
will
force
you
to
spend
at
least
IDR
50,000
in
one
go.
This
park
also
functions
as
the
departure
point
of
little
boats
that
sail
along
the
river
for
kids.
I
once
took
my
two-year
old
daughter
for
the
boat
ride,
but
a
couple
of
days
ago
when
I
went
there,
I
did
not
see
the
boats
sailing,
probably
because
of
the
renovations
that
are
going
on.
How
long
is
this
park
stretched?
Along
the
street,
so
the
park
is
just
along
the
river.
One
more,
the
restrooms
are
generously
available,
and
the
good
things
are
that
they
are
free
and
well-maintained.
One
interesting
thing,
hunt
for
the
sign
that
writes
βDilarang
Pacaranβ
or
No
Flirting,
especially
dedicated
to
restricting
young
couples
from
being
too
openly
romantic
in
public.
