Syphon Metro Kepanjen

Actually, from a historical point of view, this place is a place that has historical value whose benefits can still be felt today. It was built during the Dutch colonial period (th.1903), and is still strong to this day. Serves as a water / irrigation channel, which is very useful for the surrounding community. But unfortunately, over time, this place seemed to have been forgotten. Many scribbles from irresponsible hands adorn along the gutters, weeds also grow around this place, especially because of the garbage that has been deliberately left in this place by visitors who stop by here, making it even more dirty to look at. If only together we could protect each other, work hand in hand to repair the existing damage (for example: repainting, planting ornamental plants around this area, repairing damage at several points on the steps around the gutter, and repairing the sides. right and left of the bridge that has started to porous). There needs to be attention from the local government and coordination with the surrounding community, so that in the future this place is feasible and can be used as a historical tourism asset, especially in the Malang Regency area.
