Very beautiful.

Waduh, pemandangan Jakarta lawa banget! *spoken in Malaysian accent*
Heheh, how's my Indonesian?



The top of this building is really smart, especially when it's lit up at night.
There are a few big projects going on in Jakarta right now rite. I remember reading something bout the Sudirman building, or was it the Menara Jakarta? I dunno...

Whatta beautiful place.

Oke dech.. mallacan.. but saya ngak ngerti lawa itu apa?

The building is the tallest building in Jakarta today.. Bank BNI building at 250m, which is also the 57th tallest building in the world
But anywho, Jakarta is planning to build Menara Jakarta which hopefully be the tallest in the world at 588m..

those are nice pictures

Wow, pretty nice. The park photos are my favorite...feels like "cooling" down.

Oh, maaf ya purnomor. Lawa itu ertinya cantik.

Hi... all,

Being away from home, sometimes a think often of Jakarta. The city that offers so much excitement, and the unbelivable nightlifes (if you know where to go), especially the food and restaurant scenes. So, to those of you have pictures or can take pictures in Jakarta, please post up some pictures here

^

Very nice pics, dad!
Hopefully I can visit those places in the near future.

Dank je Schat Funny I always think people who visit places like this are from Jakarta.

Right after this Jakarta visit I went to Cirebon and also made a few pictures. This part is not really finished, it needs some text. But no time at the moment. I am preparing for "pulang kampung" to stay there for 2 months

Here the link : KLIK LAGI

Bye-2

Londoh

Oh when I was in junior high school I'd been to Kraton Kanoman! I remember the white gate very well (wonder why should white )
Thanks for sharing the pics.

I also found this web is interesting: www.vangorkom.net

Old Jakarta a.k.a Batavia

Click on the link to read the story of this pic.

I received a collection of old photo's from Batavia, but scanned too small
do do something with them. Here are 2 of the pictures


Kali Krukut Toko Tiga


Pasar Baru 1872

Do you have old picture of Jalan Thamrin? I did but lost it

Anyone with more recent pictures ?? ????

^
with all those skycrapers? gimme time to find it out

If you know the name of Jl. Thamrin dahulu pictures are easy to find. The part of Batavia is Weltevreden.

Kind regards

Londoh

Jl Thamrin did not exist during colonial times. In 1949, the southernmost part of Jakarta is Menteng and the Thamrin area was rice fields and kampungs. Jl Thamrin was only laid in 1960 by President Sukarno as connection to the Senayan Sports Stadium, then being built for Asian Games 1962.


In 1950, Jln Merdeka Barat ended at what is now the Bank Indonesia complex. What is now Jl Thamrin area was totally unbuilt rural area.


Jl Thamrin in 1965. Building under construction is Sarinah shopping centre, on the horizon is the newly-built Hotel Indonesia.


Jl Thamrin looking to Monas in 1970s, big building on the right is Sarinah Shopping Centre
