Jakarta Old Town β¨
Thinkin' of spending your weekend in Jakarta? Don't forget to visit Jakarta Old Town or "Kota Tua" in Indonesian language.
This is one of the popular tourist attractions in Jakarta. All buildings around this area are in Dutch architectural style. You can do sightseeing by walking or cycling (since they open bike-rentals too for visitors) around Kota Tua. Most of people will love the ambience, as well as stories behind these historical buildings.
On weekend, Kota Tua will be super packed with visitors, but you still can enjoy it. The option of entertainment will be more varied on weekend.
Since this area is not that huge, you may spend around 1-2 hours here to stroll around. And prepare more time if you want to drop by some museums or cafe.
Best way to get here is with Jakarta Commuter Line Train red line, stop in Jakarta Kota station.

Kota Tua Old Town, Jakarta
#timetotravel
Jakarta's old town, known as Kota Tua, is a historic area with old buildings and museums that show how the city looked under Dutch rule. It's a lively place with lots of people, especially on weekends. While some buildings might need fixing, it's a must-see spot for people who like history and want to experience Jakarta's past.
In the middle of the old town is Fatahillah Square, where you can find the Jakarta History Museum and the Wayang Museum. The streets are small and have vendors selling local stuff. It's best to go in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the heat. Despite a few issues, the old town is a special place to explore Jakarta's culture and history.

Petak Enam
Very beautiful refurbishment of Petak Enam. The place has a very modern space planning and finishing but it still resonates the Jakarta Chinatown Identity.
#passionpassport
The perfect lush green in the heart of Jakarta. Very peaceful and not too busy. A perfect place to visit especially during the pandemic. Feast for the eyes from the bustling of the city. They have wide array of coffee selection and other beverages too. A spot for instagrammer-alike and those who simply want to enjoy the nature.
Actually itβs a very nice, just like cafe inside the woods, yes, just like in the real forest with the high trees and the sounds of the birds around. But I donβt have any idea when is the best time to visit, itβs crowded even too crowded, to order the food you have to queue, and they will call your name through the loudspeaker when your order is ready.

Stay here for a while especially if you like to take instagrammable pictures in a lot of unique spots scattered in this area. tour. This museum looks really well maintained, and also huge!

πKota Tua, Jakarta
Kota tua or Old city of Jakarta is one of the oldest place in here. Indonesia was colonized by holland for 320 years no wonder if some of the buildings were influenced by them. you can tell from the architecture itself, it looked so old and vintage. This is the place where you should pay a visit to everytime you come to J town. so many street food around this place and people are everywhere selling souvenirs. be careful if you want to eat the street food, you need to really take a look at them. it might be really dirty.

Jakarta Old Town
Kota Tua Jakarta is the area of first settlement in Jakarta. It starts from Sunda Kelapa harbor to Pecinan (China Town). Thus, this area is rich with history.
Initially, Sunda Kelapa harbor was known as Kalapa and it belonged to Pajajaran kingdom. When an army from Demak and Cirebon took over this area, their leader named Fatahillah built a town surrounding the harbor. The town was named Jayakarta. Presently, the date of the establishment of Jayakarta on June 22, 1527 became Jakartaβs anniverssary.
In 1619, the Dutch East India Company, popularly known as VOC (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie) under Jan Pieterszoon Coen usurped Jayakarta and changed the name into Batavia, as a remainder of their founding fathers, the Batavir.
Since then VOC built many buildings in this area. However, when VOC went bankrupt in 1799, this area was abandoned. The next Governor General, Daendels, brought down some of these buildings and used the materials to build a new town called Nieuw Batavia a.k.a Weltevreden in the area known as Lapangan Banteng.
Fortunately, there are many beautiful buildings still remained in Kota Tua Jakarta. Once abandoned, now the government started to revitalize this area. Some of the buildings are already renovated and returned to their prime condition. Six of them are functioned as museums, hence, the area is known as District Museum.

this is an amazing European style cafe in the old square in the old town. itβs easy to get just a short walk from the main kota railway station. it has all the Dutch and Italian style cuisine and drink you could want. it is also decked with photos from its heyday in the 50βs. the staff are so polite it is a bit expensive but weβll worth it. itβs a great place to go for a special occasion, check it out!

Kawasan Jakarta Kota
Mari berjalan jalan ke daerah klasik Jakarta. Kawasan Jakarta Kota namanya. Di sini, ada banyak bangunan tua yang kental dengan sejarahnya masing-masing. Yang menarik, tentu saja desain-desain bangunannya.
Saya berkeliling dengan jalan kaki. Dimulai dengan Kalibesar, saya menyusuri jalanan yang dikelilingi bangunan-bangunan tua nan klasik. Enaknya sih dari pagi ya kesininya.. Saya melewati Gedung Fatahillah, gedung khas di kawasan ini. Lalu ada Museum Wayang, Museum Mandiri, ada Museum Bank Indonesia.. Mungkin dulunya kawasan ini termasuk pusat perkantoran juga kali ya.. Terlihat dari cukup banyaknya gedung perkantoran di sini, tapi tentunya dengan arsitektur khas masa lampau..

KOTA TUA JAKARTA (Jakarta Old Town) π
Is said to be the original downtown area of Jakarta. Since Jakarta was once colonized by the Dutch, the architecture of the place is European. Being there will seem to feel like you are no longer in Indonesia, but somewhere in Europe.
