My comfortable hometown

    I am living in my lovely home town, it is called Demak. My hometown has a strong history, almost all of the history is related to Islam. Demak is famous with the statement “Demak kota wali” which means that Demak is the city that has guardian. The word Demak is from Arabic language which has meaning swamp.

    Demak has 897,43 km² large and has a population of 1.055.579 inhabitans in 2010. Demak is contains of 14 districts and 243 villages. There are many objects that people can visit it, but the most famous object in Demak are the great mosque of Demak and the tomb of Sunan Kalijaga. People are visiting to Demak because they want to do pilgrimage, especially for moslem.  Not only “Demak kota wali” for the famous name, but also Demak have “kota beramal”, “kota belimbing”, “kota jambu” for the others famous name. The atmosphere of Demak maybe little bit warm than Semarang city, so it is comfortable if we are living in this town on a cold or rain season. Mostly people of Demak are farmer and fisherman, they are farming and fishing for their life to live.
