The Tsunami Museum Is Ready To Welcome Tourists Visiting Aceh During The Eid Holidays

JAKARTA - The Aceh Tsunami Museum continues to provide services to tourists who travel to the provincial capital of Aceh during the Idul Fitri 1443 Hijriah holiday and the upcoming joint leave.

"We will continue to open the museum during Eid, and it will start from the third Eid," said Mimi Oktryeni, Head of Administration for the Aceh Tsunami Museum, in Banda Aceh, quoted from Antara, Saturday 30 April.

Mimi said that the service for the Aceh Tsunami Museum on the first and second days of Eid was still closed, then on the third day of Eid it was re-opened because it was estimated that tourists would be busy visiting.

"So, the first and second holidays will still be closed from today. The third day of Eid until Sunday, we will reopen (closed on Friday only)," he said.

Mimi said that usually every Eid holiday, especially Eid al-Fitr, the museum is always visited by local people from various districts/cities in Aceh to domestic tourists.

"When Lebaran is crowded with visitors, indeed there are more local tourists, but there are also from outside the province such as North Sumatra and Padang," he said.

On this occasion, Mimi also reiterated that although Aceh's COVID-19 cases in general have begun to decline, visitors are still required to comply with the health protocols according to the provisions.

"We still ask tourists to apply health protocols, require masks, check temperatures, keep distance. We even use an open and close system," said Mimi.
