My FIRST TIME in Modern JAKARTA (Unbelievable!) 🇮🇩

I had an amazing day discovering the most modern areas of Jakarta. The city's modernity and appeal pleasantly surprised me. I can't wait to dive deeper into the wonders of this megacity.

Jakarta is such a massive city with population of close to 11 million people. Don’t overlook Jakarta on your trip to Indonesia—many tourists miss out on this fascinating city!

I started my vlog journey near the SCBD Weekland, very chill street that has nice options of Indonesian street food. That's such a lovely way to start a video, with some nice local dishes.

At first stall I bought Avocado and milk drink that cost 30000 rupiah, it was actually pretty tasty, preparation was making me sketched out, but I guess I should've trusted the process. Drink was okay in the end, I wouldn't order it again, but worth a try.

Second shop I met this lovely Indonesia lady, she was so friendly and funny.
Her instagram is: dapoereya and when you go there from this video make sure you let her know haha. I will surely go back to support her business next time I'm back In Jakarta.

For the food I had some chicken noodles, actually tasted really good. And that lovely lady brought me some interesting tofu dish that was full of garlic! I loved it, so tasty.

After that I went around the explore modern parts of Jakarta, the area Is called Sudirman CBD.

First thing I noticed right away that it was very nice to walk there, there were so walk paths for pedestrians that is good to see in Jakarta, as many spots you have to walk next to road or some walkways need to get fixed, but as locals don't really walk that much maybe that's why it is not getting so much attention.

Next destination was super luxury mall called Pacific Place Mall, this place was just insane. It was one of the fanciest mall I've been to, there was even lady in elevator pressing buttons for you (I never seen that anywhere yet) It was full of luxury brands and there was even sailing boat inside the mall.

After that I continued my walk in modern Jakarta and I was very pleased to see how they have kept a lot of greenery there and I could feel that air quality was really nice there.

Must be the combination of trees and way less traffic in that area and it was also Sunday, Jakarta Car free day happens from 6 am until 11 am every Sunday.

If you like running make sure you go that area on Sunday as there wont be any cars over there so you can really run freely.

My final destination was Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium, after I arrived there I was lucky to get on transporter car, it was fun ride to the main stadium.

Main stadium area was great for walking and it is also very popular for running for Jakarta locals, there are days where it is very busy, but that day it was quite slow. I guess people had their run earlier when there were no cars around at all.

It was such a cool day in modern parts of Jakarta quite different experience from my first day in Jakarta.

Join me on my next video for more awesome Indonesia.
