Rest areas or Rest and Service Areas (TIP) are public facilities that we often encounter when passing through toll roads.
Usually this area is used for toll road users to take a break or just eat and buy souvenirs. But did you know that there is a unique rest area built from a Dutch sugar factory?

That's right, my friend, WisataInfo, I heard right, when you pass the Pejagan-Pemalang toll road, Brebes Regency, Central Java, you will see Rest Area KM 260 B Banjaratma.

Different from usual, this rest area has a unique building shape and looks classic. It is known that this rest area used to be a sugar factory that was converted, and reportedly this rest area is the most unique rest area in Indonesia.

Converting Sugar Factory Functions to Rest Area

This rest area stands in the Banjaratma sugar factory complex area. This building has existed since 1908 and is currently one of the cultural heritages in Indonesia.

This sugar factory used to be successful, but in 1997 it closed due to operational costs that were not proportional to income and finally in 2019 it was transformed into a rest area.

The conversion of the Banjaratma Sugar Factory into a Rest Area was carried out by PT PP Sinergi Banjaratma, while maintaining the original elements of the ancient sugar factory.

Here are some of the unique features of Rest Area KM 260 B Banjaratma:
