A wonderful city with lots of heart and soul..lots to see and many great paces to eat (Bratvia was a wonderful experience and lots of great live music). wonderful vibe in the heart of Jakarta and memories of lovely smiling faces will always stay with me...
Interesting to walk around. Lots to see and experience although the heat and crowds limited our time. Maybe try on a weekday as Sunday was ridiculously busy.
We went to the Jakarta museum. It was interesting and not expensive. Nice to learn about the city you're staying in. Lots of local people gather in the square in the evening and there were some live bands. Very cool place if you want to see some place locals hangout.
This area is nothing special. It's very hectic (like much of Jakarta). It's the sort of place that you only need to visit once. The art gallery is quite good, for local artwork, but it could do with a renovation.
Actually this area suppose to be historical and beautiful. But the street market and street foods surrounding it make it less attractive. Local Government should be able to improve it to make it more clean looking so people more comfortable to walk around.
