Flying from Munich to Jakarta: FAQs
How do I get around in Jakarta?
One of the best ways to explore the busy streets of the Indonesian capital is the bus system. Buses have their own lanes to help them beat the traffic and many services run from early morning until night. Taxis are another option. For a truly memorable Jakartan journey, hop in one of the city’s countless tuk-tuks.
What is the food like in Jakarta?
Jakarta is famous for the fried rice dish, nasi goreng. Typically made with chicken, vegetables, shallots, sweet soy sauce and a host of herbs and spices, this delicious and filling dish is definitely one to try. The national dish of Indonesia is said to be nasi campur, a mixed rice dish which you can try at numerous street stalls across Jakarta.
Top tips for Munich to Jakarta
Explore the markets and malls of Jakarta
If you like shopping on Munich’s Kaufingerstrasse, you’ll love the many retail delights of Jakarta. Two of the city’s top malls, Plaza Indonesia and Grand Indonesia, can be found next to the landmark Selamat Datang Monument. Neighbourhoods such as Cikini and Kemang are the best places for quirky smaller stores. The hectic Pasar Jl Surabaya street market is also worth a visit if you’re on the hunt for antiques.
Step back in time with a visit to Kota
Just as Altstadt is the historic heart of Munich, the Kota area – or old town – is one of Jakarta’s heritage highlights. Its architecture gives visitors an insight into the city’s colonial past, with the Kota Intan bridge and Kali Besar canal among the best-known sights. Kota’s central Fatahillah Square is home to dozens of carts selling street food and souvenirs.
