Mads Lange 200th anniversary in Tuban Bali

TIME : 2016/2/25 13:47:26

Tuesday September 18th 2007 is the 200th anniversary of Mads Lange, the Danish trader who lived in Kuta / Tuban and was one of the most important foreign expats in Bali’s history.

Mads Lange’s tomb is located close to Supernova in Tuban, a minute’s drive down Gang Langga and onto Jl. Blambangan. There is some kind of ceremony planned, but I have not heard anything about it in the local press. Would be nice to bump into one of Mads Lange’s relatives at the ceremony, so I’ll try to make a trip down there besok (that’s tomorrow for you ‘bules‘)
