Indonesia Day 3 - Taman Mini Indonesia


0800 - Walked to Fatahillah Square and visited the Muzium Sejarah (Historical Museum). Not much information to see, only the old furnitures.

1030 - Took transjakarta to Taman Mini for an hour since it is quite far from the town center. Since the fare for travelling with Transjakarta is cheap i.e. IDR 3.5k for any distance and station, travel further is more worth.

1230 - After walked for 20 mininutes, we reached the park, the entrance ticket is IDR 10k per adult. This part have every culture and house from Sumatera to Nusa Tenggara and hence it's quite big. Therefore we rent a double seat bicycle (IDR 25k per hour). However, if you want to visit every museum, you should not rent the bike as no lock is provided and worry about getting stolen. In addition, the each region park is connected closely.

1730 - While we cycling, the bicycle rent person asked me to return as the park is closed at 6pm. I thought we can cycling till the exact time, but the all the bicycle rental shop close quite early.
After that, we walked back to the Tamini Square where the nearest Halte located. After having lunch at A&W, we took the Transjakarta back to the Kota Tua which is an hour journey.

Accommodation Review:
Name: Tidur Hostel, Kota Tua
Location: Near to Kota Tua, a historical site of Jakarta, but far from central. 4/5
Comfortability: We booked double bed which is a dorm-type and mix with single bed, the bed is like a rectangular capsule type which is very short that you can only in sitting position. 4/5
Facilities: Very good WiFi, the shared bathroom is quite small and there is total of 4 bathroom for whole hostel. 4/5
Cleanliness: Toilet is quite clean. 5/5
Budget: The most budget stay in Jakarta with breakfast included (Coffee, tea, bread, jam and cereal). The milk can be bought in the fridge. However, the dorm price in Jakarta is more expensive than other city like Bandung. 4/5
