*Lapangan Banteng is is a historic field located in the historic
area formerly known as Weltevreden, now Sawah Besar District, Central Jakarta,
Indonesia. Lapangan Banteng is located in Pasar Baru, Sawah Besar District,
Central Jakarta. Its location is very strategic, being in Central Jakarta. It
is adjacent to the Borobudur Hotel, the A. A. Maramis Building of the Ministry
of Finance (Paleis van Daendels), the Istiqlal Mosque, and the Cathedral
Church.
The park is also accessible by public transportation, such
as Transjakarta buses, the Juanda Commuter Line Station, and the Bundaran HI
MRT Station.
Lapangan Banteng is
open from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM on weekdays and 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekends.
This flora and fauna exhibition is an annual exhibition
which is usually held at Lapangan Banteng, which is held on august 1st to
september 8th. This year I had the opportunity to visit this exhibition on
August 22nd. I went to the location by public transportation, Transjakarta. It
was pretty easy to get there by public transportation. I took 2A from my place then transit in Damai's
shelter and took 8 toward pasar baru then got off at Juanda's shelter. I walked
from juanda to the location about 9 minutes.
I arrived at the location at 6 p.m. The lights were
beautifully decorated. I wandered around enthusiastically, hoping to see the
various plants and animals there. I visited several plant vendor booths there,
where they sold a wide variety of plants, from ornamentals, herbs and food
crops. They also sold a variety of beautiful flowers. I really enjoyed
wandering around, admiring the beautiful and interesting plants.
Besides plants and flowers, I also visited the animal booth.
I think because it was quite late so they only had a few fauna's booth left
like hamster, rabbits, snake, owl and fish. They also offer photo opportunities
with snakes and owls. You only need to pay 20,000 rupiah for that. There are
also several food and street food stalls. I found this exhibition quite
interesting and a great way to unwind during your busy schedule. There's also
no admission fee or free entry. It’s great, right?
