by Location | Jakarta
Jakarta is the
capital city of the Republic of Indonesia, and its center
of government and commerce. It is the country’s urban
heart, its trend setting modern hub, the cosmopolitan face
of Indonesian culture. For travelers, it is at turns
overwhelming and awe-inspiring. Its population of ten
million are drawn from all the corners of the archipelago,
filling Jakarta’s streets with a buzz of languages and
the colorful evidence of their customs. It is home to
towering skyscrapers and tiny houses, luxury hotels and
open-air eating stalls, corporate headquarters and cozy
cafes where the latest news, art, and ideas are discussed
over thick Indonesian coffee. Its restaurants boast every
cuisine imaginable, from gourmet French to authentic
Chinese to hundreds of ethnic Indonesian specialties. Its
shops carry goods from all over the world, and crafts from
all over the country. Its museums and performance spaces
spotlight the incredible richness and variety of Indonesia’s
arts, and its nightclubs pulse long into the star-filled
night. Jakarta is all of Indonesia rolled into one gaudy
package, and like no place else on earth.
For business, for
pleasure, for an unforgettable experience, Jakarta is the
place to be.
