From a City Hall to Jakarta History Museum⁉️
#timetotravel
The Jakarta History Museum (also known as Fatahillah Museum/Museum Sejarah Jakarta) is housed in the former City Hall located in the old part of the city now known as Jakarta Kota. Its few hundred meters behind the port and warehouses of Sunda Kelapa.
The building was built in 1710 and Originally called the Stadhuis, this building was the administrative headquarters of the Dutch East India Company, and later of the Dutch Government.
What is inside the Jakarta History Museum? Most of the collection were paraphernalia from sixteenth century, such as furnitures, clothes, books, maps, potteries, and weapons.
Kota Tua/Jakarta Kota/Old Town has more than the history of this particular museum. It has five other museums and a few historical buildings, have you checked them all out?

Jakarta History Museum KOTA TUA
Jakarta History Museum, also known as Batavia Museum is located at Kota Tua. As a solo traveller, I choose to walk here after my visit at Glodok China Town, which took me around 15 minutes on foot.
The entrance fee is cheap, at IDR5,000. You can see lots of collection from the Dutch colonisation such as ceramics, historical maps, paintings and archeological items.
The building compound is spacious and you can ride a bicycle within the compound. At the exit, you can grab a beautiful and nicely crafted souvenir to bring back home.
Wayang Museum and Fine Art/Ceramic Museum also located next to the Jakarta History Museum.

Turn Back Time in Old Batavia
#weekendgetaways
This historic district, once known as Batavia, was the heart of the Dutch East Indies in the 17th and 18th centuries. Its cobblestone streets, grand colonial buildings, and horse-drawn carriages evoke a bygone era of grandeur and trade.
Wander through Fatahillah Square, the central plaza lined with museums like the Jakarta History Museum and the Wayang Puppet Museum. Admire the neo-classical architecture of the former City Hall, now the Fine Art and Ceramic Museum. Take a break at Batavia Cafe, housed in a restored Dutch warehouse, and savor a cup of coffee amidst the old-world ambiance.

A Day in Kota Tua
If you get to spend a day in Jakarta, Kota Tua should be your top choice for a place to visit, especially for someone who loves museums. You get to visit various museums in one area with walking distance, such as Museum Bank Indonesia and Museum History. Do take note that all the museums are open until 3PM. In here, you can also taste Indonesian cuisine in Batavia cafe or simply stroll around the park.

Jakarta
Nice place to spend the noon. Lots of artifacts covering the history of Jakarta as a city. The building itself has an interesting history.
