Impressions
The way to immigration checkpoints is too small – there are only 2 lines. The waiting time might be up to 1 hour after the flight.
Interesting to see normal people acting as police men, guiding the traffic & helping cars cross intersections. They do get tips from the drivers.
Hardly seen (lots of) cabs except near the airport.

- The Old town – around 20-25′ from the center
A church, park & a few shop selling ancient stuff (e.g. money notes, coins and others). not much to do there. - Sam Poo Kong: huge temple & look impressive from far. A mix between Chinese & Javanese structures.
