Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

1. Visit the Monas Museum At the bottom of the Monas cup, there is the Indonesian National History Museum. There visitors can see 48 dioramas that showcase the history of Indonesia in various periods.

2. Visiting the Independence Room At the Monas cup there is the Independence Room. In the past, visitors could see Sang Saka Merah Putih, the original flag that was flown on August 17, 1945. But because it was too old, the flag was now not on display. In this room, visitors can listen to the voice of the first President of Indonesia, Sukarno, read the text of the proclamation.
3. Go to the top of the court Do not miss the opportunity to climb to the top of the National Monument. From a height of 115 meters, you will see a panoramic view of Jakarta. If you want a different atmosphere, climb to the top of Monas at night.

Enjoying fine arts Around the Monas complex there are scattered sculptures full of history. For example the statue of Prince Diponegoro, MH. Thamrin, Chairil Anwar, RA. Kartini, and the Ikada statue.

One of the interesting tourist spots that you can visit while in the Old City of Jakarta is the Fatahillah Museum. This tour seems to be inseparable from the Old City. It can be said if this museum is a silent witness of the struggle of the Indonesian people in achieving independence.

Initially the museum was named the Batavia Museum during the VOC occupation. Not only used as a city hall, but also used as a courtroom to the dungeon. No wonder there are a lot of heritage objects from the Dutch era that are still neatly stored in the Fatahillah Museum.

This colonial style building has become a tourist attraction that should not be missed when visiting the Old City of Jakarya. The Bank Indonesia Museum is a legacy of De Javasche Bank and has been established since 1828.

There you can see a variety of information related to travel from the banking world in Indonesia, before the Dutch and Japanese began to arrive.

City Station
You can feel a different atmosphere compared to stations in general. This is because the buildings are antic and stylish past so as to provide a different atmosphere. This train station was precisely built in 1929 and inaugurated directly by the General of the Dutch nation. At present the building is entered into a cultural preservation protected by the Jakarta City Government.
