Enjoy Your Food with Musi River's View At Ampera Convention Center

As far as i know, Ampera Convention Center (ACC) already established in 2014. But i don't know for sure. Talk about ACC, we will see the hallmark Palembang from here. You can see Ampera Bridge and Musi River.

ACC from Ampera Bridge
Located in river side, this plaza also has many stores like Chatime, Sederhana Bintaro (Padang food), KFC, etc. You can enjoy the wind if you sit outside. But it's too bad because they used the place for smoking area. So, i prefer to sit inside of restaurant.

Before i ate, i'd already make a video about it. See it HERE....

And also, i made a video about the view, you can see it by CLICK HERE...

Adorable right? So if you go to Palembang, i recommend you to go here and watch the view by yourself. The view in the night is also amazing.

If you are waiting someone to arrive or you are waiting for your departure, you can rest here.


Or maybe you can eat at this area. But becareful, just ask the price first before you eat. It is better if you are with local people like me (wkwkkwkw).
