Itinerary

National Monument (MONAS)
Pass-by Only

The National Monument (Monas) in Jakarta is a powerful symbol of Indonesia’s hard-fought independence, embodying the nation’s rich history and cultural heritage. Towering majestically in the heart of the city, it stands as a source of inspiration and pride for all Indonesians. If you love photography, Monas offers endless opportunities. From its grand architecture to the lush greenery of Merdeka Square, every angle is a perfect shot. Whether you’re capturing the monument’s impressive structure or the stunning views from the top, your visit to Monas will be a memorable experience.

Istiqlal Mosque

The Istiqlal Mosque, located in Jakarta, is not only the largest mosque in Indonesia but also the largest in Southeast Asia, with the capacity to accommodate tens of thousands of worshipers. As a central place of worship, it holds immense significance for Muslims in Jakarta and across the region. A visit to Istiqlal Mosque is a truly enriching experience, especially if you’ve never been inside a mosque before. Its stunning architecture, with soaring domes and intricate details, is a marvel to behold. Beyond its grandeur, the mosque offers a chance to learn more about Islam, its traditions, and its importance to the local community. Whether you’re admiring the serene prayer halls or taking in the peaceful atmosphere, a visit to Istiqlal Mosque is an opportunity to connect with Indonesia’s cultural and spiritual heritage.

Jakarta Cathedral

The Jakarta Cathedral, or Gereja Katedral Jakarta, is a beautiful and historic Roman Catholic church in the heart of Jakarta. Built in 1901, its stunning neo-Gothic design makes it one of the city's most iconic landmarks and a peaceful place of worship. As you step inside, you’ll be greeted by soaring spires, intricate stained glass windows, and a serene atmosphere that feels like a world away from the bustling city outside. Beyond its architectural beauty, the cathedral holds a fascinating story. It’s interesting to learn how Catholicism emerged in Batavia during Dutch colonial rule, especially since the Dutch were primarily Protestant. Visiting the Jakarta Cathedral is not just about admiring its grandeur—it’s a chance to reflect on the diverse history that shaped Jakarta into the city it is today. It’s a place that invites you to pause, connect, and appreciate the cultural richness of Indonesia.
