FEELING THE HISTORY BY TECHNOLOGY

Lamongan has a History Museum about Islam. Namely, the Indonesian Islamic Art Museum or Islamic Museum located in the Bahari Lamongan Tourism (WBL) on the Paciran highway, Lamongan, East Java, contains a history of Islamic greatness throughout the world.

The Indonesian Islamic Art Museum which opened since December 28, 2016 is very necessary and important. Because, in Indonesia there has not been a clear explanation from the beginning regarding the history of Islam.

In the presentation through the audio visual zone, visitors were presented with the screening of a 15-minute short film about the history of the world's Islamic civilization, starting with an overview of the Arabian peninsula in the past, the arrival of the Prophet Muhammad, the Caliphate, to the spread of Islam in all directions.

There is also a collection of historical objects ranging from galleries of Ottoman Turks, Indian Mughals, Chinese Dynasties, Samudra Pasai Sumatra, Aceh, Islamic Mataram and Wali Songo's track record in Java.

In addition, by downloading the AR Indonesian Islamic Art application in Playstore, visitors can scan pictures in the museum which will appear in three dimensions.

The Islamic Museum that uses the touch of technology, is considered capable of presenting the nuances of digital-based tourism. Digitizing the Islamic historical archives in this museum makes visitors comfortable to internalize historical values. This method can provide more detailed information about Islamic history.
