Hello everyone, In this video, we will take you on an adventure to one of the most iconic places in Indonesia—Kilometer Zero located on Sabang Island, Aceh! Kilometer Zero is the westernmost point of Indonesia, a place full of historical and symbolic value. The journey there presents stunning natural scenery, from lush forests to enchanting beaches.

We will show you the Kilometer Zero landmark, explain its history and significance to the Indonesian nation, and enjoy the beauty of the surrounding Weh Island. Witness the extraordinary natural beauty of this westernmost part of the archipelago, and feel the patriotic atmosphere as you set foot on the starting point of Indonesia's distance calculations.

This monument is located at the western tip of Weh Island, Sabang, Aceh, and is a symbol of the beginning of the Republic of Indonesia from the west side. Kilometer Zero is a reference point for calculating the distance from Sabang to Merauke, which is often referred to as a symbol of the integrity of the territory of the Republic of Indonesia. In addition to being a geographical landmark, this monument also has a nationalistic meaning because it marks the furthest boundary of the Nusantara region.*Nusatara region.

The Kilometer Zero Monument was first built during the era of President Soeharto. Its construction began in 1997 and was completed in 1997 as well. However, this monument has continued to undergo renovations until now. In 1997, the Garuda Pancasila statue was added to the top of the monument's pillar, symbolizing the strength and sovereignty of Indonesia.

This monument has a distinctive architectural form with tall pillars and the national symbol Garuda Pancasila at the top. At the bottom, there is an inscription signed by Vice President Try Sutrisno on September 9, 1997. This monument stands on a cliff facing the Indian Ocean, providing a calming yet meaningful atmosphere.

In 1997, the monument was first inaugurated, but the government continues to renovate and develop the surrounding area to make it more attractive to tourists. In addition to being a historical tourist location, this monument is also a popular spot for tourists who want to enjoy the beautiful scenery and capture moments at the westernmost point of Indonesia.

In addition to being a geographical marker, the Kilometer Zero Monument is often considered a symbol of national unity. The phrase "From Sabang to Merauke" reflects the vastness of Indonesia's territory, and the Kilometer Zero Monument marks one end of it. For many tourists and locals, visiting this place is often interpreted as a form of love for the homeland and awareness of the vastness of Indonesia's territory.

The Zero Kilometer Monument of Indonesia is not only a geographical point marker, but also a symbol of the spirit of national unity.
