The holy tower is a mosque tower that is designed like a Hindu temple. this is a historic tower built by sunan kudus (an Islamic religious leader) by adopting a Hindu style. What distinguishes the Hindu temple, there are no statues or reliefs that depict human life. That said, under this tower there is a well that springs water from life. This water when you drink can make you stay young. But it was closed by Sunan Kudus and the tower was erected so it would not be misused. for you, non-Muslim foreign tourism is not a problem entering this area because this is not a place of worship for limited visits.

Central Java Grand Mosque

Reviewed By nfwldr - Bekasi, Indonesia

I recommend to visit here by online transportation. The area is so spacious. There is a tower than you can visit, it's called Asmaul Husna Tower. The outside mosque was so hot but inside was very fresh, probablye because there are many fans, and many architectures was made from woods. The toilet area was big and clean. There is an area to keep our shoes

The best place to visit in the Dieng area. A nice and steep path makes it easy to capture every step at this location. Incredible views from the top of the hill, visible Kawah Sikidang and a Telaga Warna that make a wonderful photo background.
