By: Ahmed on February 14th, 2009.
A florist picked a rose for his customer on Valentine’s Day.
The man is the one of the many florists selling roses during Valentine’s Day at the Flower Market along Jalan Kalisari [Dr. Sutomo] Semarang. He usually sells a lot of roses and gets a huge profit during the day. He sells a rose for Rp 7.500 to Rp 17.500, depending on the rose type. The price of roses is more expensive in Valentine’s Day than it usually is.

Saturday, January 10th 2009 was the last full moon in the year of Imlek 2559 (day 15 of the 12th month of Imlek). The ritual of “Ketok Pintu” (to knock on the door) was held on that day (the last Cap Go) as the commencement of Pasar Imlek Semawis event. During the ritual, the Taoists prayed in the shrines located in the Chinese quarter (Pecinan) of Semarang. Four dancers from See Hoo Kiong shrine also added a liveliness to the festival and the Warak Ngendog attraction gave the audience more of a taste of Semarang.
