One Day At Old Town Jakarta

It has been a month I didn’t update my blog. The one and only reason is only I’m lazy enough to update my blog. I think I’m not a kind of person who loves to writing and making a blog is only because I love to read my friends blog, and I think it must be fun if I also make my own blog. And the result is I’m not updating my blog frequently…

OK then, just want to share my experience about exploring an Old Town at Jakarta.

Leehom’s Taiwan Fans Base, HOM2usic is having a project for Leehom’s birthday this year. They asked all Leehom’s fans base from other country to make a video recording and wishes Happy Birthday to Leehom in their own language. Then we decided to make the recording at Old Town Jakarta.
So, last Saturday, I woke up earlier cos we have to make the recording at the morning before the Old Town being crowded of the visitor.
I went to busway shelter at Jalan Panjang with Ingrid, met up with Anett there and reached the Old Town at around 9.30. That was my first time being there, and I was amazed that Jakarta has that place.
As usual, there were only 6 of us (me, Anett, Ingrid, Lia, Renny and Jutin) gathered there, I didn’t know where are the other OHI member at Jakarta.
We finished the video recording at 10.30 and started the Museum tour. Only 3 of us (me, Anett and Lia) left and join the museum tour. The first museum we entered was Museum Fatahillah. The scary thing was this museum has the dungeon and it was so dark.
After finished the tour at Museum Fatahillah, we continued our journey to Museum Bank Indonesia. This was the most comfort museum cos it has air conditioner and the cleanest one between 3 museums that we visited. And the last museum we visited was Museum Bank Mandiri. This museum was looks so old and a bit spooky for me hihi.. I saw a lof of old machine that was used in the banking industry a long time ago.
And we started starving after finished the tour haha.. It’s almost 13.30 and we haven’t had our lunch. So we decided to go to CL and had our lunch there and I reached my boarding house at about 17.00.

Well, it was fun to explore the Old Town, moved from 1 museum to other museum. And I think I should go there again to visit Museum Wayang and Museum Keramik haha..
