The Old Batavia Tour in Jakarta
Highlights of the tour with the Jakarta tour guide:
Glodok China Town: Called “Glodok”, it is the oldest China town in Jakarta Built around 1650. Open markets, a small shop with typical old Chinese architecture, tiny alleys, and charming cracked make this area a photographer’s paradise.
Archive Museum: Located in Jalan Gajah Mada street, it was one of the old museum display old maps. At nighttime, the light and the atmosphere even more beautiful and romantic.
Puppet Museum: An old Dutch colonial house that contains great collections of Javanese leather “Wayang” puppets. Wooden “Golek” puppets and masks of Indonesia and some other parts of the world. The former Old Dutch Governor-General graveyard also was here.
Historical Jakarta Museum: Originally built by Dutch in 1707 as Jakarta City Hall or “Stad Huis”. Furnished with antique furnishing, porcelain, old map and portraits, underwater jail, and other items used by former Dutch Governor-General.
Sunda Kelapa Harbor: The old port of Sunda Kelapa is full of magnificent Makassar schooners (Pinisi). The dock scene here has barely changed for centuries, and porters unload cargo from these sailing ships by hand and trolley. Sadly, the port itself is rundown and its waters grotesquely polluted these days.
Kota Intan Drawbridge: At the north end of Kali Besar lays a small 17th-century Dutch drawbridge, the last in the city, called the Kota Intan Drawbridge.
