Introduction
Jakarta,
capital of the Republic of Indonesia is a sprawling,
busy metropolitan city that is the epitome of this
archipelagic nation that is deeply rooted in
multi-cultural traditions, today stretching out
to be a globally recognized player in world politics
and the economy in this 21st century.
Dirgantara Statue, Pancoran
or centuries since its establishment in 1527 when it

was known as Sunda Kelapa, Jakarta has been a busy
port where merchants from China, India, Arabia and
later Portugal, Spain, England and Holland came to exchange
silks, porcelain, and exotic goods for spices, tea, coffee,
camphor, sandalwood, and other precious produce from all
over the Indonesian islands.
Today, as the seat of Indonesias national
government, the countrys financial, trading
and business center and the heart of the
countrys burgeoning young middle class,
Jakarta attracts investors and business people
from around the world to this expanding city.

housing the worlds top high class brands,
wide toll roads and flyovers, as well as the
bane of modern cities : traffic jams.
Jakarta is also the nations airline hub.

Jakarta, is where it all happens. During Dutch

colonial days from the 17th century on,
the city- then called Batavia was for three
hundred years the seat of hegemony of the
Dutch Government over the then Netherlands
East Indies. After World War II, it was also
Jakarta where, on 17th August 1945 Indonesia
proclaimed her hard-fought Independence
from the yoke of colonialization. Towards
the end of the 20th century, it was again

The oldest part of Jakarta lies on the north west
coast of Java where the Ciliwung river pours out
into the Bay of Jakarta.
his harbour town was first known as Sunda Kelapa. But

on 22 June 1527 Prince Fatahillah razed Sunda Kelapa
and founded the town of Jayakarta on the same site.
This is the date that Jakarta takes as the establishment
of the city. Jayakarta was a thriving port where traders from
China, India, Arabia and later the Europeans, as well as those
from all over the archipelago exchanged their wares.
Jan Pieterszoon Coen
In 1619, the Dutch VOC under Jan Pieterszoon

Coen destroyed Jayakarta and built a new town
on the west bank of the Ciliwung river, which
he named Batavia, after the Batavieren, the
Dutch tribal ancestors. Batavia was planned
similar to Dutch towns, in a series of blocks cut
by canals and defended by a fortified wall and
a moat. This part of Batavia was completed in
1650. Old Batavia was where the Europeans
lived, while the Chinese, Javanese and other
indigenous groups were relegated outside the
city entrenchment.

In its heydays, Batavia became known as the

Jewel of the East, the seat of the VOC and later
it became the seat of the Dutch Government
over the sprawling East Indies archipelago.
During the Japanese occupation in 1942,
the Japanese again changed the name from
Batavia to
Jakarta.

the Old Batavia

C
enter of Old Batavia was
the Municipal Hall, known as
Stadhuis, fronted by a large
plaza, known as Stadhuisplein, that has
a fountain in its center that supplied
water to the surrounding buildings.
Today the plaza is called the Fatahillah
Square and the Stadhuis has become
the Fatahillah Museum which houses
the complete history of the growth of
the city of Jakarta.
Pos Indonesia
The Puppet Museum
Around the square are important buildings.

On the East side was the Court of Justice,
which is now the Museum of Fine Arts and
Ceramics. Here you will find paintings of
Indonesias maestro painter Raden Saleh
as well as those of the more contemporary
painter, Basuki Abdullah, Affandi and more.

lso known as the Fatahillah Museum in

the Old Batavia district, the Museum
follows the history of Jakarta.
Originally built in 1707 as the Stadhuis, or
the Municipal Hall of Batavia, the building
now houses the history of the city of Jakarta
from prehistoric times until today, in metals,
textiles, stones, crystal, ceramics, paper
and bone. Here is the Jagur cannon,
believed to enhance fertility, the axe used
for beheading of criminals, paintings of
consecutive Dutch Governor Generals from
1602 1942.
The Wayang Museum
Nearby is the Kota Railway Station, also

known as the Beos Station. This is an art
deco building, which continues to be in use
and still retains its original architecture. While
to the north are a number of commercial
buildings which now house the Museum
Mandiri and the Bank Indonesia Museum.

their tales from the Hindu epic poems the
Mahabharata and the Ramayana as well as
relate the feats of ancient Javanese kings in

While wayang is a way of popular storytelling yet it is a sophisticated art form that
conveys deep philosophical thoughts and
learnings. For this reason Wayang has also
been designated a UNESCO World Heritage.

Nearby is the Maritime Museum that was
once large warehouses where lucritive spices
were stored to be further shipped and sold in
far away Europe.
In the neighbourhood is the Fish market,
known as Pasar Ikan, and at the mouth of the
Ciliwung river is the Sunda Kelapa Harbour,
which until today still serves as Jakartas

National Archives Building
he elegant red brickNational Archives

Museum- known as Museum Arsip
Nasional, is located on busy Jalan Gajah
Mada. It once housed the Dutch colonial
Archives, and was originally built in the 18th
century as residence of the Dutch East Indies
Companys (VOC)Governor General Reinier
de Klerk.
Today, however, it has become a museum
which is open to the public and can be used for
romantic gala dinners or wedding receptions in
exclusive heritage setting.
When the site was about to be demolished,
a group of Dutch businessmen founded
theStichting Cadeau Indonesia (Society for the
Gift to Indonesia) to collect funds to restore
the building as a museum to donate this to the
Indonesian government on the countrys 50th
Independence Day in 1995. Restoration was
however, completed only in 1998.
The main red brick bulding has two floors with

a high roof. It has a wide ground floor. Its main
door is beautifully carved and has holes for
ventilation. Here was the main drawing room
of the governor general. Today there are still a
collection of antique furniture and an arsenal of
guns.
On the ground floor can still be seen ceramic
tiles similar to those found in the Palace of
the Kasepuhan in Cirebon, depicting stories
from the Bible. Astaircase leads to the private
quarters on the upper floor where are offices
and a dining room (where Hillary Clinton was
hosted a dinner during one of her visits to
Jakarta). Here one can see old maps of Batavia,
and the bedroom of Governor General Reinier
de Klerk.
In 2001 the National Archives museum received
theUNESCO Award of Excellence 2001.

The National Monument
The Merdeka Palace
he National Monument stands proudly

in the center of the 1 square kilometer
Merdeka Square, symbolizing the hardfought struggle of the Indonesian people to
gain their Independence.
Obelisk-shaped and covered in white Italian
marble with a golden fire on the top, the
Monument is 132 meters tall and stands
on a platform which houses a museum and
diorama encapsulating the history of the
Republic of Indonesia.
The Merdeka Palace
The golden flame is 14 meters high with a 6

meter diameter. Made of bronze weighing
14.5 tons, it is covered with 50 kg of pure
gold leaf. Its base is a platform at a height
of 115 meters, which can be reached by
elevator and is a perfect look-out place to
see the Jakarta skyline.
The Monument is surrounded by a green
park where spotted deer can be seen
grazing. There is also a musical fountain that
plays each Sunday night.
n the North side facing the Merdeka or

Freedom Square stands the Merdeka
Palace with adjoining Presidential Offices
and State Secretariat buildings. Behind the
Merdeka Palace but still within one complex
is the Negara Palace (State Palace) which
faces the other side towards the Ciliwung
river along Jalan Juanda. In addition to a
building for special guests, and a mosque
the entire area forms the Merdeka Palace
Complex.
Originally built in the 18th century, this
neo-classic bulding with Doric columns was
designed by Drossares. The Palace was the
residence of the Dutch colonial governor
generals. Since Indonesias Independence it
became the official residence of the President
of Indonesia.
The Monument is often used for Festivals

including New Years Eve celebrations.
Every Independence Day on 17th August, the

official State Independence Day Ceremony
takes place in front of the palace, officiated
by the President and attended by the entire
Cabinet and the Diplomatic Corps. With
pomp and ceremony the national red-andwhite flag is then raised and flown over
the 17 meters high flagpole in front of the
palace.
The National Monument was designed

and built in 1961 by Indonesian architects
and engineers Soedarsono, Silaban and
Roosseno.
Official welcoming ceremonies for foreign

heads of state as well as state banquets
are also regularly held here in the Merdeka
Palace.

ocated on Jalan Merdeka Barat, the

National Museum is the first and largest
in South East Asia. The Museum houses a
collection of over 140, 000 items of artefacts,
from prehistoric Indonesia through the large
influential kingdoms of Crivijaya on Sumatra
and Majapahit on Java, to the once powerful
kingdoms in East Indonesia.
The Museum then traces the spread of Islam
in the Archipelago and the arrival of the
Europeans in search of the Spice Islands to
the colonization of the Indonesian islands
into the then Dutch East Indies.
Jakarta Governors Office
he Office of the Governor of Jakarta is

situated on the South side of the Merdeka
Square, at Jalan Medan Merdeka Selatan

Visitors are first welcomed by huge statues

and stone inscriptions unearthed in the
various archaelogical sites.
Highlight of a visit to the Museum is the Gold

crowns, ornaments, keris and jewelry once
worn by royalty and the aristocracies around
the archipelago. The National Museum has

Gambir Station.
A little way down from the

Merdeka Palace lies the
Banteng Square, in front of
which stands the Ministry of

built as the Palace for
Governor General Daendels.
Around the square is the
Catholic Church with the
century old Sancta Ursula girls
school attached. Opposite the
Catholic Church is Jakartas
iconic Istiqlal Mosque.
Further down Jalan Merdeka Selatan

comes the Menteng area, which was once
the residential area of the Dutch elite. The
Menteng area is now a conservation area,
where no houses may be altered without
special permit, and therefore it remains an
upmarket residential part of town where are
colonial houses with manicured gardens.
The Istiqlal Mosque
he grand Istiqlal Mosque of Jakarta, was

inspired by Indonesias first President,
Soekarno, but took 17 years in construction.
Finally on 22 February 1978, Indonesias
second President, Soeharto inaugurated it
as the countrys national mosque. The Istiqlal
mosque is the largest mosque in South East
Asia both in structure and capacity, as it
can accommodate congregations of up to
120,000 people.
Located at Jalan Taman Wijaya Kusuma in
Central Jakarta, on the north eastern corner
of the Merdeka Square, the Istiqlal Mosque
stands out with its 45m diameter dome and
tall minarets.
Standing almost right across the old Catholic

Cathedral at the corner of Jalan Lapangan
Banteng, the Istiqlal mosque was designed
in 1954 by Frederick Silaban, a Christian
architect from North Sumatra.

accommodate the parking of cars during
religious festivals. The parking lot of the
mosque is used by the church congregation
during Easter and Christmas midnight mass,

and vice versa, during Eid prayers, parking is
extended to the Cathedrals parking lot.
The Cathedral was consecrated in 1901
having been rebuilt at the same location
where previously stood the old cathedral,
which was built in 1829 but
collapsed in 1890.
Above the church are three
wrought iron spires, the two
highest are 60 meters tall,
while the central spire is 45
meters.
The building itself has two
floors, with the ground floor
being for the holding of
mass. The upper floor used
to be for the choir, but has
now been converted into a
museum, which holds relics
for rituals during the days of
the Dutch East Indies, as also
the history of the spread of Catholicism in
Indonesia.
The Cathedral is still actively used to this day.

This avenue was earnarked exclusively for highrise
buildings. And so today, one sees only tall buildings
on the Sudirman-Thamrin 6 lanes avenue. President
Soekarno, who was a civil engineer by education, also
built the National Monument and the Istiqlal Mosque.
Indonesias first highrise hotel, the Hotel Indonesia now
Hotel Indonesia Kempinski - was also built then, as was
the Wisma Nusantara across this iconic Hotel Indonesia
round-about fountain, today popular sites for political
demonstrations.
Soekarno also built the Bung Karno Sports Center at

Senayan, where the entire complex was earlier designed as
a huge Olympic-sized village. Today, though, the Senayan
area also has five star hotels, the Jakarta Convention

As Jakartas population grew by leaps and bounds,

new suburbs emerged, absorbing the one-time
rural villages or kampungs. The metropolitan capital
spread to all directions, first adding the Kebayoran
area, then Pondok Indah, in the South, but now
growing east, north, further south and west until
today, Jakarta has become one almost seamlessly
with the adjoning towns of Bogor, Depok, Tangerang,
and Bekasi.
Fortunately, town planning has been such that each district is self contained where facilities like
hospitals, schools, universities, shopping centers, religious buildings are all available within one
neighbourhood.
Yet the main problem remains since the thousands of offices in high rise buldings are still
centralized so that millions of commuters who travel at peak hours in the morning and in
the evening cause daily traffic snarls that are almost impossible to overcome, even with the
construction of wide toll roads, overhead roads and traffic tunnels.
Jakarta has a number

of fine museums
operated by the
Government as well as
privately owned.
The Textile Museum
The Textile Museum is definitely worth a
visit. Located at Jalan Aipda K.S. Tubun in
West Jakarta, the Museum is housed in an
19th century mansion originally owned by
a Frenchman. In 1978 Indonesias then First
Lady, Ibu Tien Soeharto, inaugurated it as the
Textile Museum of Indonesia.
The Museum has a comprehensive and well
displayed collection of textiles produced
in Indonesia. There are antique and new
beautiful Batik pieces from Java, Batak ulos,
Minangkabau Songket, Balinese grinsing,
and other woven cloths from throughout the
Indonesian Islands. Here are also displayed
weaving instruments and equipment for the
production of textiles. The Museum holds
regular Batik classes. But, as like Museums in
Indonesia, it is closed on Mondays.
The 1928 Youth Pledge Museum

Among the many historic buildings in Jakarta,
the unassuming 1928 Youth Pledge Museum
at Jalan Keramat Raya records a most
significant moment in Indonesias modern
history for Independence.
In 1928, when the Indonesian islands were
still a colony of the Netherlands, intellectual
youths from many parts of Indonesia, with
different cultural and religious backgrounds,
convened the second Youth Congress
in this building. On 28 October 1928,
they unanimously pledged to create:
One Homeland, One Nation and One
Language: Indonesia. This Youth Pledge
is recognized as the social contract upon
which the Indonesian people declared
their Independence on 17 August 1945,
whereupon the Republic of Indonesia is
founded.

Beautiful Indonesia in
Miniature Park
Taman Mini Indonesia Indah or Indonesia
in Miniature Park, initiated by former First
Lady Ibu Tien Soeharto, is a huge park which
displays life-sized traditional houses from
throughout all of Indonesias 33 provinces.
Taman Mini aims to display and educate the
coming generations about Indonesias large
diversity in culture, religion and traditions,
yet united in the one nation of the Republic
of Indonesia. In Taman Mini one can admire
the beautifully carved Minangkabau Rumah
Gadang, the Toraja tongkonan to the
Dayak longhouses from Kalimantan and the
megalithic Nias house, and many more.
Religious buildings of different faiths stand

Here are also a number of museums,
among which the Museum that houses gifts
received by former President Soeharto from
world dignitaries, the Museum Indonesia,
the Asmat Museum, and the Philately
Museum. There is also the Fauna Museum
in the shape of a large Komodo dragon,
the Transportation museum, and a whole
lot more, besides an Imax theatre and a
Planetarium.
Regular cultural performances in traditional
and contemporary style from around the
Indonesian archipelago in drama, dance
and music are held regularly in the two main
theatres.
Fresh Water Aquarium
Taman Mini also has a large Orchid Garden,

where one can find a large variety of orchid
species to admire and to buy.

(Delman)
The indigenous people of Jakarta are the Betawi, a community

of mixed descent , a mixture of different races and ethnic
groups, who for generations have made Jakarta their home.
Very outspoken and democratic, the Betawi have assimilated
different cultures in their daily life, arts, music and traditions.
Staunch Muslims, the Betawi blends the original Malay
language with neighbouring Sundanese words, mixed with
Javanese, Chinese, Indian, Arab and Dutch words.
The wedding costume of the bride adopts the Chinese
tradition of bright red embroidered top with a veil of
golden tassels. Whereas the bridgroom wears very
contrasting costume inspired by the Arab
and Indian Dons.

Setu Babakan :
Betawi Cultural Village
The Betawi also absorb

music from different races,
including from the colonial
Portuguese, Dutch, Arab
and Indian traders, as
also from neigbouring
West and Central Java,
making it all their very
own.
For musical
instruments they
use the Sunda
trumpet and
drums, while
from Europe
they have
adopted the
trombone
and guitar, as well
as Chinese instruments.
While inspired by
Portuguese music this has
resulted in the distinct
Jakarta music genre
popularly known as :
Keroncong.
Betawi Traditional Food
With the large influx of peoples from

across Indonesia since Independence,
the indigenous Betawi have retreated
to outlying areas, mostly to West and
South Jakarta.
With time there
developed the
Tanjidor , which uses
the trombone, piston
tenor, clarinet. This
latter genre is said to
have originated from the
European plantations, since
their tunes have European
sounding names, such as
Bananas, Delsi, Batalion,
Welnes, and so on. But
now they have become
more local-sounding
with tunes like JaliJali, Surilang,
and the popular
dangdut music.
A Special Betawi Cultural Village covering 289 hectares has

been set aside at Setu Babakan, where visitors can see and
stroll through the village that has retained its original Betawi
architecture and layout. Regular cultural performances are
shown every Sunday from 2 pm to 4 pm, or dance training
sessions of Betawi dances that include Sirih Kuning, Lenggang
Nyai and others held each Sunday, Friday and Wednesdays.
Every July a special Betawi Cultural Festival is held here that
include wedding ceremonies, circumcision ceremonies, sevenmonths pregnancy rites, and more.
Visitors can also go fishing while enjoying the local cuisine and
desserts at the various stalls and restaurants.

Chinese Heritage
The Lenggang
Nyai Dance
A contemporary creation,
the Lenggang Nyai is
performed by either 4
or 6 girls. Lenggang
Nyai expresses both
the gracefulness and
vivaciousness of the Betawi
woman.
The Tanjidor
This typical Betawi music
known as Tanjidor is said
to have originated in the
Dutch plantations located
in the suburbs around
Batavia, such as at Depok,
Cibinong, Bogor, Bekasi
and Tangerang, where local
slaves used to play for
their Dutch masters. When
slavery was abolished in the
19th century, these bands
went around busking to earn
their living. This tradition
of busking continues until
today. The European
influence is clearly visible
from the musical instruments
used that include a trumpet,
bass, clarinet, cymbal and
others. Nowadays, Tanjidor
can be found fused with
the Malay-origin Gambang
Kromong music that include
the tambourine, beduk,
gendang, kempul and more.
The Tanjidor
30
Ondel-Ondel
Ondel-ondel are the giant
puppets that are inseparable
from the Betawi culture and
are now the icon of Jakarta.
These are made on bamboo
frames to allow persons to
carry them around from the
inside. Ondel-ondel usually
come in pairs, the male
wears a red mask carrying
a gallant moustache and
sideburns wearing dark
colored clothes, while the
female mask is white with
red lipstick. She usually
wears bright colours. Both
wear the typical Malay
spiked headdress, called
kembang kelapa.
These ondel-ondel puppets
usually lead parades at
weddings or circumcisions,
followed by the bridal pair
and families, or by the
circumcised boy and
relatives, strutting
around the village,
gaily accompanied
by bands playing
Tanjidor or
Gambang kromong
music
Created by Wiwik Widiastuti

in 1998, choreographer from
Yogyakarta, the Lenggang
Nyai has become a popular
part of the Betawi dance
repertoire and is often
shown at art and tourism
events overseas.
This dance has elements
from the Cokek and the
Mask dance and distinct
Chinese influences. Wearing
bright red or green dresses
and Chinese headbands, the
girls sway their body, hands,
and feet with graceful and
brisk movements.
Another version called the
Tari Sembah Nyai, created
by Dadi Djaja is danced to
welcome guests, following
Malay dance movements.
Dharma Bakti Temple
Chinese Heritage
in Jakarta
Ever since the first century AD, China and the

Indonesian islands already had close contact either
between the Chinese emperor and the Indonesian
kings as well in religion and trade contexts. Chinese
princesses are known to have been given in marriage to
a number of kings in Yogyakarta, Solo, Cirebon, Bangka
and Belitung and in Western Borneo.
But the influx of Chinese to Indonesia
seriously began in the 17th century when the
Dutch East India Company, VOC, attracted
Chinese mainlanders to immigrate to the
Indonesian islands to work and trade.
In Batavia, capital of the VOC, although the
Chinese were needed by the Dutch, yet
the Chinese community together with the
indigenous population were kept to settle
outside the city walls and entrenchments.
Many therefore, settled and traded along the
Pintu Besar area by the Ciliwung river, that is
known as Glodok or Jakartas Chinatown.
Glodok stretches from Pancoran all the
way to Jalan Gunung Sahari. A number of
Chinese also settled further west in todays
Tangerang, which is now in the neighboring
Banten province. These original settlers
in Tangerang are known as the Benteng
Chinese.
31
Chinese Heritage
Toko Merah at Glodok
ocated at Jalan Kali Besar Barat 17,

along the once busy Ciliwung river, in
the subdistrict of Roa Malaka, Toko Merah
was originally the home of Willem Baron van
Imhoff, who later became Governor General
of the East India Company in 1743-1750.
In its long history, the building was converted
into a maritime academy from 1743-1755,
the first and most prestigious maritime
academy in the Far East at the time, then
it became a Guest House for high ranking
officials (Heerenlogement) from 1787 1808.
Dharma Bakti Temple
As in the early centuries China prohibited

women from emigrating, the immigrating
men married local women, thus creating a
fusion and acculturation between Chinese
and local Malay, Javanese, and other
indigenous traditions. This fusion is known as
the Peranakan culture.
The Peranakan culture is most pronounced in
their wedding ceremonies, music and dance
and in particular in the fusion in food and
cuisine, where the Chinese absored the local
cultures, and vice versa, local communities
absorbed Chinese cultural elements into their
existence.
A number of well-preserved Chinese
buildings that can still be admired today
can be seen in Toko Merah, at Jalan Kali
Besar that clearly shows Chinese influences.
Another is the newly restored Candranaya
building along Jalan Gajah Mada. Both Toko
Merah and the Candranaya are now open
32
for Seminars, weddings and other large

gatherings.
Petak Sembilan is another neighbourhood
that still exudes an aura of the original
Chinese settlements. Here is the oldest
Chinese temple in Jakarta, called the Jin De
Yuan or Dharma Bakti Temple, built in 1650 .
Willian Bligh, commander of the Bounty,

whose deputy staged a mutiny on board
ship on 28 April 1789 was once a guest here.
This mutiny was made famous through the
film Mutiny on the Bounty, starring Anthony
Hopkins as Bligh and Mel Gibson as deputy
commander Christian Fletcher.
Around Petak Sembilan you will find local

Chinese stores selling typical Chinese sweets
and other Chinese knick-knacks, drugstores
selling Chinese medicines, and best of all
local restaurants selling original Chinese food
such as roast duck, fried dumplings, bakso
meatballs. Here is also the typical Chinese
coffee shop called Kopi Tiam and the Ice
Caf called Tak Kie, still selling all in the
old ways.
In 1851 the
building was
bought by a
Chinese trader
who painted
the brick walls
completely red.
Since then it
became known
as the Red Shop
or Toko Merah.
The red color
dominates both its
exterior as well as
its interior.
This part of Jakartas Chinatown comes alive

with lanterns and lion dances most especially
during Chinese New Year Celebrations.
During this period,

the building
became the center
of slave trade in this Dutch colony. Traces

from this period in history can be seen in
the names of surrounding districts, such
as Manggarai, for example, which was the
village for slaves from Flores, Kampung Bali
for those from Bali and Kampung Ambon
from Ambon in the Moluccas, and others.
In the 18th century, ships could sail into
the Ciliwung at Kali Besar (meaning the
Large Canal), and dock right in front of the
row of shops here, loading and unloading
their precious ware. This area was then
a Central Business District of the time,
with busy traffic on land as well as on the
river. Nowadays, though, with the silting of
the river, no boats can enter the Kali Besar
although on land traffic remains heavy.
Toko Merah is built in 18th century Baroque
architecture. Its ornamentation is a mix of
classic European and Chinese dcor, where
its Baroque staircase is most impressive.
33
The Candranaya Building

Although once an important stand-alone
building, the Candranaya is today tucked
away among highrise buildings in the Green
Central City by Hotel Novotel at Jalan Gajah
Mada 188. Built in the 18th century, this
ancient Chinese building was owned by a
rich Chinese merchant by the name of Khouw
Tian Sek.
Candranaya has a distinctive Chinese
architecture with spacious rooms, where
the interior of the house is decorated
with intricate ornaments while its roof top
has a tou-kung crown which is also fully
ornamented.
Estimated to have been originally built in
the early 19th century, nonetheless, the
Pecenongan Road
Portuguese and British

exact date when it was actually constructed

remains unclear.
At the end of World War II, the Sin Ming
Hui social organization made the house its
head office. The organization helped and
gave information to the war-stricken Chinese
community. Sin Ming Hui conducted many
works for social purposes. They established
health clinics, sports clubs as well as arranged
educational activities and organized a club in
photography.
In 1962 the Sin Ming Hui social organization
changed its name to the Tjandra Naja and
later to Candranaya.
Pecenongan
Although today one can find Chinese
restaurants of all description around any
corner of the city, yet for authentic Chinese
food with that specific Chinatown ambience,
a visit to the Pecenongan food street is a
must.
Located between Jalan Juanda and Jalan
Batu Tulis Raya, Pecenongan comes alive only
in the evenings, when stalls selling a large
variety of foods will satisfy your tastebuds.
34
Heritage
he Portuguese were the first Europeans

who set foot on Java in the 16th century in
the search for the legendary Spice Islands.
Although the Portuguese did not dominate
on Java, yet their heritage from the short period here
can still be seen in two Portuguese churches and in
the still popular keroncong music.
Keroncong is the Indonesian musical fusion from

the original Portuguese music known as fado
introduced by sailors and slave trade ships in the
16th century. The music travelled from Goa in India
to Malacca and finally to Tugu.
Keroncong accompanies the Moresco, a
dance of Spanish influence that resembles
the polka but danced at a slower pace.
In the process of acculturation Keroncong
which was originally played on stringed
instruments added the flute and gamelan
instruments. In the 1960s Keroncong
was again popularized by Police General
Hugeng, through his well known band
The Hawaiian Seniors, which again added
elements from the Moluccas and Hawaii.

here are two mosques inOld

Batavia that were built in
the 18th and 19th century.
These are theAn-Nawier mosque
and theMasjid Langgar Tinggiat
Pekojan, now more familiarly known
asKampung Arabor the Arab village,
in West Jakarta.
Before the Arabs, the neighborhood was

dominated by Muslim Indians from Bengal.
The name Pekojan is
said to derive from
the word Khoja or
Kaja, an area in India.
On the other hand,
the word khoja is
also the name of the
headdress worn by men
from the neighbouring
province of Banten. So
Banten soldiers who
fought with Prince
Fatahillah, founder of
Jakarta, could well have
stayed in this area. And
indeed, as Jakarta and later Batavia was a
busy international trading port, the town was
always full of traders from different ethnic
groups who formed their own communities
and settled together in villages called
kampungs.
TheAn-Nawier mosque- also known as the

Pekojan Mosque, in the Pekojan subdistrict, was built in 1749 AD, (or 1180 H according to
the Islamic calendar), by Syarifa Fatimah binti
Husen Al Idrus. This is the largest and oldest
mosque in Old Jakarta and has a number of
unique elements. It has an L-shaped floorplan
for congregational prayers with capacity for
2,000 persons. The roof is supported by 33
pillars, symbolizing the 33 holy verses that
are to be cited after prayers. Outside the
mosque stands a 17 meters minaret which
closely resembles a light
house.
According to stories related
by the locals, in the past,
whenever there were uprisings
against colonial powers,
Indonesian freedom fighters
would find shelter in this
narrow tower,
safe from their pursuers.
Walking from this mosque
to Masjid Langgar Tinggi,
one passes a bridge called
Jembatan Kambing or the Goats Bridge
over the Angke river.This bridge used to
lead to the slaughterhouse for the poor
goats. But the slaughterhouse is now no
more, although many of those of Arab
descent who still live here continue to raise

Arriving atMasjid Langgar Tinggi, or the Tall
Mosque, one understands instantly why this
mosque is so called, since it consists of two
storeys, something quite unusual in those
early days.
Masjid Langgar Tinggi, which is located
along the Angke river, is said to have been
built in the year 1829 AD (or in 1249 H
An-Nawier Mosque
according to the Islamic calendar year). Its

upper floor, where prayers are held, is made
of wood, and is still original and remains in
good condition until today. The ground floor
houses the person guarding the mosque.
Its architecture is a fusion of moorish
and colonial with Chinese and Javanese
elements. Its pillars are in classic European
design, the supports of its pillars are Chinese,
and their base is Javanese. Its pulpit comes
from Palembang, South Sumatra.
