Jakarta Tourism Destination : SituLembang Park, Central Jakarta |
One of Jakarta Tourism Destination that is not too popular for travelers is Situlembang Park in Central Jakarta. It is only 350 meters from Suropati Park.
At first, the park is a sub system reservoir of Cideng river, to hold water from the water sources around it. The government then build an open area. In 1984, Jakarta Park Services renovates it and build 4 fountains fulfilled with lotus and fishing shacks. In 2002, the park is renovated again to suit as a public park.It is located in elite area, Menteng and not too crowded, so you can enjoy the cozy atmosphere.
If Suropati has a fountain, Situlembang Park has a pretty wide lake with a fountain in the middle and lotus spread over it.
You can reach there by foot from Suropati Park. We can enter Situlembang park through Suropati street from Megaria to Hotel Indonesia roundabout or from Suropati street, turn right to Syamsurizal street and then turn left to Lembang Street.
There is also a playground and you can do fishing freely. The tall trees make the air cool, and the tidy and clean jogging track make you are able to do some exercises in the morning or in the afternoon.
