A. Today
Jakarta has much to offer, ranging from museums,
art and antique markets, first class shopping
to accommodations and a wide variety of cultural
activities. Jakarta’s most famous landmark, the
National Monument or Monas is a 137m obelisk topped
with a flame sculpture coated with 35 kg of gold.
Among other places one can mention the National
museum that holds an extensive collection of ethnographic
artifacts and relics, the Maritime Museum that
exhibits Indonesia’s seafaring traditions, including
models of sea going vessels.
B. Sumatra is a paradise for nature lovers,
its national parks are the largest in the world,
home to a variety of monkeys, tigers and elephants.
Facing the open sea, the western coastline of
Sumatra and the waters surrounding Nias Island
have big waves that make them one of the best
surfer’s beaches in Indonesia. There are beautiful
coral reefs that are ideal for diving. For those
who prefer night dives, the waters of Riau Archipelago
offer a rewarding experience with marine scavengers
of the dark waters.
C. Various establishments offer professional
pampering service with floral baths, body scrubs,
aromatic oils, massages and meditation; rituals
and treatments that use spices and aromatic herbs
to promote physical and mental wellness. Various
spa hotels are extremely popular. Indonesians
believe that when treating the body you cure the
mind.
D. Jakarta has a distinctly cosmopolitan
flavor. Tantalize your taste buds with a gastronomic
spree around the city’s many eateries. Like French
gourmet dining, exotic Asian cuisine, American
fast food, stylish cafes, restaurants all compete
to find a way into your heart through your stomach.
The taste of Indonesia’s many cultures can be
found in almost any corner of the city: hot and
spicy food from West Sumatra, sweet tastes of
Dental Java, the tangy fish dishes of North Sulawesi.
E. In the face of constant exposure to
modernization and foreign influences, the native
people still faithfully cling to their culture
and rituals. The pre-Hindu Bali Aga tribe still
maintains their own traditions of architecture,
pagan religion, dance and music, such as unique
rituals of dances and gladiator-like battles between
youths. On the island of Siberut native tribes
have retained their Neolithic hunter-gathering
culture.
F. Whether you are a serious spender
or half hearted shopper, there is sure to be something
for everybody in Jakarta. Catering to diverse
tastes and pockets, the wide variety of things
you can buy in Jakarta is mind boggling from the
best of local handicrafts to haute couture labels.
Modern super and hyper markets, multi-level shopping
centers, retail and specialty shops, sell quality
goods at a competitive price. Sidewalk bargains
range from tropical blooms of vivid colors and
scents in attractive bouquets to luscious fruits
of the seasons.
G. The land’s long and rich history can’t
be separated from the influence of Hinduism, Buddhism,
Islam and Christianity. There is one of the oldest
Hindu temples in Java, the majestic Buddhist ‘monastery
on the hill’, Borobudur, the largest Buddhist
monument in the world. About 17 km away from this
monastery is a 9th century temple complex built
by the Sanjaya dynasty. Prambanan complex is dedicated
to the Hindu trinity: Ciwa, Vishnu and Brahma.
The spread of Islam also left interesting monuments
such as the 15th century Minaret Mosque in Kudus.
