Taman Suropati is definitely an oasis in the middle of the bustling city Jakarta. If you come here for the first time you wouldn't believe that there is a place this green and comfortable among the concrete forest. The public park is sort of like Lincoln Park in New York but in a much mini version. You can almost do anything here since the park itself open for 24 hours a day. There are several spots for you to enjoy the scenery made there like a small water fountain and built-in art installations. The local cleaning service does a good job to maintain the cleanliness and greenness of the park. They regularly clean the park and throw the trashes.

Read moreTaman Suropati in Jakarta is a peaceful escape right in the middle of the city. When I first arrived, I was struck by how calm it felt compared to the usual hustle of Jakarta. The trees are tall and provide a lot of shade, making it a great spot to relax, especially on a hot day.
I saw people sitting around enjoying the green surroundings, some were jogging or just taking a walk. There were also a few musicians playing instruments, which added a nice touch to the overall atmosphere. I liked the sculptures spread around the park, giving it a bit of an artistic feel.
What’s nice about Taman Suropati is that you can just sit and enjoy some quiet time, read a book, or people-watch. It’s well-maintained, but it can get a little crowded, especially on the weekends.
