No one wants to travel to Jakarta, right? Poverty and wealth are separated by a wall.

When I returned to China at the end of the winter vacation, I had no choice but to go to Jakarta because I didn't have a suitable flight ticket. Most of the inertial comments about this city come from the Internet: a super city with a population of 30 million, terrible traffic, dirty and messy, poverty and wealth are separated by a wall, speeders touch their mobile phones, and there are even stinky original underwear sold in packages... I feel, well, You can come here to practice before going to India. At the same time, Jakarta is also the fastest sinking city on earth. It will become the contemporary "Atlantis" in 2050. Just because of this name, let's go shopping. To sum up: it is more interesting than imagined, but not much. . Picture ①: Kuningan City The parking lot on the sixth floor above Gate 1 is currently the best auction location in Jakarta, perfectly reflecting the characteristics of this city. Figure ②: Jakarta History Museum It is a Dutch heritage building in 1707. Most of the museum's exhibits are from the 17th to 19th centuries. It is not large in area and the content is relatively hard-core. Many students will come to visit. It is very enthusiastic and healed by their smiles. Picture ③: Kuningan City Rotary parking lot. Figure ④: Jakarta Cathedral Gothic cathedral from 1891, the third largest Catholic church in the world. Picture ⑤: Istiklal Mosque I went there on Friday to worship and didn't go inside. The window grilles are all made of stainless steel and are unique. Picture ⑥: Cafe Batavia A century-old coffee shop, opposite the history museum, the food is average, you have to go to the toilet, you know. Picture ⑦: Gaya Spa Wellness Wolter Monginsidi The horse-killing chicken restaurant most recommended by domestic bloggers can be visited by couples together. It cost about 900rmb for two people, and the technique was good. I was pushed to sleep. After pressing the button, meals will be included on the second floor. Figure ⑧: Bundaran HI The bus station has the best seats. There is no subway in Jakarta, so we mainly rely on buses. Picture ⑨: Pasar Barang Antik Surabaya Antique Street has a lot of strange things. Picture ⑩: Giyanti Coffee Roastery The coffee shop across from the antique street, ranked ninth on the Asian Coffee Top50 list, is the only one in Jakarta. I think the coffee is okay, and I think it tastes better. Figure ⑪: HW Phoenix Bar PIK Don’t go to other beaches in Jakarta, it feels like the 1980s. PIK 2 near the airport is not bad. It is known as Little Bali and is relatively trendy. At this phoenix, you can eat, drink, listen to music, and recommend cocktails 🍸. Picture ⑫: Twelve Chinese Dining Restaurant The 12 zodiac themed restaurant, the decoration is very flashy, the Chinese food tastes good, Australia comes back to save the Chinese stomach.

Cafe Batavia

Cafe Batavia is beside Fatahillah Square of Jakarta. In classical surroundings, a small stage will have a jazz band perform at specified time. You are not allowed to take professional camera inside. Main dishes include coffee, Indonesian and Netherlandish food and American cuisine. Highly recommend a cup of Indonesian civet coffee, Kopi Luwak.

Cafe Batavia

This restaurant is such a unique place and I think one of the most memorable restaurants I've ever been to in my life. This restaurant is located in the Kota Tua (Old Town) of Jakarta. Do not be surprised if see more foreigners than Indonesian people here. This restaurant preserved its colonial design and structure since 1837. Enjoy your seating in the classy wooden chairs with your selected local food such as Soto Betawi, Nasi Campur, or their signature Batavia Fried Rice. When you walk through the doors, it's like walking back in time. The building has a rich history that is part of the fabric of Jakarta. This place is a little bit pricey, but absolutely worth it if you are in the area. Not to be missed when visiting Jakarta. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie#urbanexplorer

Jakarta Cathedral

Very well preserved cathedral as compared to the one in Europe’s the detail of the inside has shown how this is well maintained similarly to the Europe Catholic Churches. The churches is free entrance and right opposite of the biggest mosque in Asia. A great way to show different gait can co-exist within a close distance! Beautiful structure still preserved from outside and very surprise to see such structures remains standing in good condition in Indonesia being the Muslim dominance ! #wintergetaway #wintergetaway
