Sightseeing

You can't say you've travelled to Jakarta if you haven't travelled to this place. The National Monument has a pretty big museum that tells about Indonesia's historical events on diorama. You can go up to the gold foiled flame and see Jakarta in 360 angle. There's a few spots that you can take a look around like Grand Indonesia, Bundaran HI, National Museum, etc. Be sure to bring your hat, sunblock, or an umbrella cause we never know if it's going to rain or not.

It might not be the most preferred restaurant for some but I've been going to this restaurant for the past 15 years. This restaurant is loceted in ITC mangga dua and it can be quite tricky to get there. But for me they serve a fantastic tom yum and fried rice.
