JAKARTA

Jakarta’s rich history and culture

If you’re interested in Jakarta’s history, Kota district is a must. In the old city centre there are still many buildings that bear witness to the days of Dutch colonial rule. Be sure to visit Medan Merdeka. Surrounded by the Istana Merdeka (presidential palace), the National Museum and the Immanuel Church, this square is a green oasis in the city. Istiqlal Mosque, Southeast Asia’s largest mosque, is also located there. Jakarta is the ideal destination for a city trip, or the starting point for a longer vacation in Indonesia.

The Thousand Islands and abundant nature

If you really want to relax, you’ll find beautiful nature and white sand beaches just outside Jakarta. Take a boat to the Thousand Islands, an archipelago just off the Jakarta coast. Discover the splendid coral reefs while diving, or seek out the many bird species on Bird Island. A definite must-see on Java is, of course, the Borobudur. Built in the 9th century, this Buddhist temple, the world’s largest, is one of Indonesia’s most famous tourist attractions. This monument is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
