This tour provides a wonderful opportunity to see some of Jakarta’s most popular attractions while allowing time to shop for Indonesia’s locally crafted souvenirs.
Travel to the National Monument Monas, representing the Indonesian people’s determination to find freedom. Enjoy a photo stop at this 450-foot-tall marble obelisk. Visit the National Museum adjacent to the monument.
Visit Taman Fatahillah Square & Museum -- a complex housing three of the city’s most interesting museums. The fountain in the square once served as the main water supply for the former colonial capital. A Portuguese cannon graces the north side, and a Dutch Reform Church occupied the space until a devastating earthquake in 1808. Inside the museum, you’ll find a collection of exhibits showcasing artifacts from Jakarta’s prehistory and the Dutch colonial era spanning from the 16th century to 1945. A section is dedicated to Wayang -- the Indonesian art of shadow puppetry.
At the Sarinah Shopping Mall, you’ll have free time to shop for clothing, cosmetics, perfumes, souvenirs, handicrafts, and textiles, including batik and the traditional woven cloth known as ikat.
