Pakam Malam, Jaarmarkt, Fort de Kock, 1907 || Palam Malam, Fair, Fort de Kock, 1907

We think this picture taken from the day not in the night, and maybe the camera in that time not support for picture on the night. We absolutly sure that this picture taken from Pasa Ateh but from what side? We not sure yet.

In this picture we  can see few of European Mans and Woman also a child there. The gate with Minangkabau style was very unic, we not found this gate in present time.

Panorama on the year 1907, one year before Kamang War (Belasting Rebelion). There is script writen on the cliff "Pakan Malam 21-29 June 1907", Pakan Malam means "Night Market". In top of the cliff is Pasa Lereng, there is no market there still the pedestrian street conected Pasa Ateh and Pasa Bawah. There is six mans sit near the railways, the train just passing and we can see the carriage who make from the wood. Also the rice field is still there.

Pemandangan pada tahun 1907, setahun sebelum pecah Perang Kamang (Pemberontakan Pajak). Terdapat tulisan "Pakan Malam 21-29 Juni 1907" di tebing yang kemungkinannya di atas ialah Pasa Lereng. Tampak pada gambar masih belum menjadi pasar masih berupa jalan yang menghubungkan Pasa Ateh dengan Pasa Bawah.
