Merdeka Square’s central location makes it an ideal starting point for exploring Jakarta, as it provides a deep connection to Indonesia’s political and cultural history. The square is often bustling with visitors and locals alike, making it a perfect spot for capturing the essence of Jakarta’s historical and political significance. You’ll pass the Arjuna Wijaya statue, a significant monument commemorating the military struggle for Indonesia’s independence. Visit the National Museum, one of the most comprehensive museums in Southeast Asia. This cultural gem showcases a vast collection of archaeological, ethnographic, and geographical artifacts, offering a fascinating look at Indonesia’s diverse cultures, ancient civilizations, and rich history. Visit the National Monument, a 132-meter Jakarta landmark symbolizing Indonesia's independence. Delve into its basement, where 48 dioramas vividly depict Indonesia's rich history. Step into the independence room to witness the proclamation gate, the majestic Garuda as our National emblem, and the gold-plated Indonesian map. Step into history at Jakarta Cathedral, a Gothic masterpiece. Admire its towering spire and the intricate glass paintings adorning its high windows. Inside, three altars form a semicircle, a unique arrangement that adds to the cathedral's historical charm. Experience the grandeur of Istiqlal Mosque, the largest mosque in Southeast Asia.
