Kota Tua
Kota Tua is known as Old Batavia. It is a historic district in Jakarta that offers a glimpse into Indonesia’s colonial past. European voyagers called Kota Tua as the "Jewel of Asia" and the "Queen of the East" in the 16th century due to its strategic location and abundant resources for the continent's trade center.
Key landmark in Kota Tua is Fatahillah Square where people often host street performances, art exhibition and traditional market. There is also Café Batavia, which provides a nostalgic dining experience amidst vintage décor. The architecture around Kota Toa also represents European and Indonesian influences that reflects the rich history and cultural fusion that defines Jakarta.
