JAKARTA SHORE EXCURSIONS: OLD BATAVIA, ISTIQLAL MOSQUE & NATIONAL MONUMENT

Ships for Jakarta dock at Tanjung Priok. Jakarta traffic is very heavy, so we keep the day to one part of the city.

Route 1: Old Jakarta (about 6 hours)

• Sunda Kelapa, the old harbour where wooden phinisi cargo ships still load by hand.
• Kota Tua, Fatahillah Square and the old Dutch town hall of Batavia.
• Istiqlal Mosque, one of the largest in Asia, and the Cathedral just across the road.
• Photo stop at Monas, the National Monument.

Route 2: Taman Mini (about 8 hours)

Taman Mini Indonesia Indah, a park with traditional houses from every province, and its museums.

The volcano Tangkuban Perahu near Bandung is about 3 hours away; only for ships that stay overnight.
