PLTD Apung 1: The Tsunami Ship Memorial

Less than a kilometer from the Tsunami Museum in Banda Aceh, Indonesia, stands another monument that conveys the true power of nature that was unleashed on 26 December 2004. It’s a large floating diesel generator vessel that was carried far inland by the tsunami and got stranded in the middle of a residential area in the city. Preserved in this location, the ship serves as a lasting monument to the havoc wrought by the tsunami's devastation.
