Description

out of great waves, from pacific oceans,
there is a sound, a song of praise in a sweet voice,
to the noble land, unto the great land,
with its white shore, and its mountain that rises up
to the highest clouds in the sunny sky.
such is the land in which I delight "West Papua."

A Song

composed by:
Pastor I.S Kijne.
The song -translated from Malay to English

Walking down the only protocol street in Sorong City, you will pass through a container harbor, a large commercial port in Sorong, West Papua. To the right side is the Mamberamo Hotel. After the harbor and Hotel, just on the left side of the road bordering the beach, with expansive views of the distant sea and islands, stands about one to two meters thick wall along the coastline. Not less than three kilometers, the wall was built as a fence, barrier, or even as a breakwater of the west wind season. Uniquely, every day along the border is always crowded by city residents to unwind and enjoy the afternoon ocean view.

The "Berlin wall" in Sorong City seems to be a landmark as the public need space to gather and socialize among citizen. It is also a favorite location. You can spend the afternoon at Tebok Berlin - enjoying the sunset.

Citizens would crowd such a long beach space during the sea is calm; old, young people, children spend an hour swimming and sunning under the morning sun before starting the whole day of their activities. But instead, do not try to go near and use this beach in any activities during the waves season.


The Sorong citizen calls it the Berlin Wall. Remind us of the wall bordered both East and West Germany before united that was finally torn down.

"Berlin" is a short word for "Berlindung." We usually call it " Tembok Berlin" (in Indonesia), which means "Protection Wall."

The atmosphere of the Berlin Wall along the night was no less impressive. More than 50's seafood tents row neatly set up alongside the wall change the face of the Berlin Wall into a typical culinary tour. Fresh fish, shrimp, squid, and crabs are the main menu in each tent, which intrigue us.
