Unique Homestays to Visit during your Stay in Jakarta, The Beloved City of Mixed History
|Marianne Luz Molo
Welcome to Indonesia’s largest city and capital, Jakarta. Despite not being a city on paper, due to its overwhelming size and massive tourist attractions, Jakarta is dubbed “the largest city in Southeast Asia”.
Located on the Northwest coast of the island of Java, overlooking the mouth of Liwung River, Jakarta is known for its plethora of museums that contain mixing cultures from across the nation. The National Museum of Jakarta and Selamat Datang Monument are perfect destinations for first-time visitors. From the Javanese, Malay, Chinese, Arab, Indian, and European, it’s not every day you get to learn multiple cultures in one capital. Aside from the museums, the mixed history and culture can also be seen in the city’s architecture and cuisine. Every building and accommodation you visit was built from one culture or the other, some of which you will probably recognize along the way.
Jakarta is a large city, and with its size comes the fact that travelers who visit will never run out of things to do or places to visit. From the interesting skyscrapers to the historical monuments, Jakarta is truly worth the trip.
