Blue skies frame the main structure of the Cipanas Presidential Palace in Cianjur, West Java, Wednesday (12/4). Built in 1740, the palace was used as a holiday retreat by Dutch East Indies Governor-General Gustaaf Willem Baron van Imhoff.

Since its establishment in the colonial era, the Cipanas Presidential Palace, Cianjur Regency, West Java, has functioned more as a place for relaxing or resting for health (tetirah) reasons for high-ranking government officials. However, a number of events have taken place and great decisions have been made in the palace, which is located 103 kilometers from the administration center in Jakarta.

Initially, the Cipanas Palace, established in 1740, was the private property of Van Heots, a Dutch landlord. However, when the governor general of the Dutch East India Company (VOC), Gustaaf Baron van Imhoff, saw it in on August 25, 1742, he immediately fell in love.
