Everyone Told Me To Avoid Jakarta 🇮🇩 (Were they right?)
Description: Is Jakarta actually worth visiting, or should you skip it for Bali? Everyone told me to avoid Indonesia’s massive capital, saying it was boring and full of traffic. But as the world's most populated city, I couldn't believe there was nothing fun to do there.
So, I spent 72 hours in Jakarta to find out if the warnings were true—or if tourists are missing out on one of Southeast Asia's most misunderstood cities.
In this Jakarta video, we'll explore:
• Blok M: The trendy Gen-Z hub packed with modern cafes, vintage shops, and street food.
• Jakarta Public Transit: Navigating the modern MRT and historical routes across the city.
• Old Batavia (Kota Tua): Uncovering the rich historical past and colonial architecture.
• The Panoramic Train (Kereta Panoramic): Riding what many call the most beautiful train journey in Asia from Jakarta to Bandung!
Whether you’re planning a trip to Indonesia or just curious about life in Jakarta, join us as we find out what this mega-city is really like.
