Museum Angkut — Attraction in Kota Batu

I love the place, its really worthed the price. The entrance ticket is IDR 120K. Thats extremely cheap if you value that for all the excitement you get. There are 8 zones here and full of excitement and attraction.

First you will go to Main Hall Zone or Vehicle Museum on the 1st floor. It contains many history of vehicles such as the first bicycle, the first car, the first racing car and first motor bike. They have driving simulation too and mixing car parts. I really amazed because they have absolutely stunning collections of historical and cultural cars.

You can choose to use stairs or lifts to go to 2nd floor. Here is the Education Zone. You can see the historical public transportation like a pedicabs, trolleys, chariots, charriages, horses, carts, wagons, trains and many more. At the edge they have formula 1 Ferrari section with driving simulator too. While the 3rd floor can be guarantee is a nice experience since you will be leading and guiding to see and feel the presidential plane of Indonesia. You can also stop by to buy merchandise and toys here. The have flight simulator too and wind simulator with a decent price. They have playing ground between the 2nd and the 3rd floor with air themed.

Next you will enter the Sunda Kelapa Zone (Jakarta Batavia in colonial age). Here you will get vintage vehicles and the presence of what it might goes to live during that time. There are carts, wagons, early trucks and early cars.

Soon enough you will entry the gangster town and Broadway street. Here is the main attraction, started in 4pm you can see the stunning performance of professional called Man on Fire using MGA 1500,Datsun 280Z, Pontiac GTO and Stingray. Dang they will amazed you with their 360 degress spinning. One of the stunt even using smoking fire cracker while getting out of car and stand in the car while the car is still running. I will give this 96 out of 100. What a performance. If you lucky enough you can be picked by the stunt drivers.

Next is Hollywood zone, here you can be seeing vintage and cultural cars in many big movies. At the 5.30 pm they will have the parade and the dancing performance while using superheroes costumes. They also have the replica of Batmobile and Scobby Doo Van.

European Zone will come next with many photo spots. I have to admitted that this miniature of Europe is really well designed. The Big Companies from Italy, Germany, France and British all here. I wonder how can they get all this cars. Many of the vintage cars is limited and only been build very few like the french presidential car, the Queen Victoria cars and many more.

The Las Vegas zone is not that good only the exceptional H2 Long Limousine Hummer. They put the lights on the cars so you can clearly see how it looks. The zone also connect to flight simulator and flight practice.

Last but not least you will have Pasar Apung to rest your leg and grabbing some snack and have a bite of traditional foods here. There are also merchandise and souviner here.

You need to bring bottle of water and snack with you cause of the long road, and using comfort shoes or sneakers will also help. Overall is 92 out of 100. I strongly recommended that you visit this place if you stop by...

The museum is located in Batu, just few kilometres away from many famous hotels here. Quite easy to get the place for sure. There is free shuttle from Jatim Park 1,2,3 to get here. But please ensure the schedule.

DSLR camera is not allowed, unless being charged for around Rp30. 000. Or just simply rent a locker from the ticket box to keep it, for around Rp15. 000.

After the entry gate.... We may see wide range of oldbcars collection. Honestly i m quote surprised to enjoy their classics cae collection.

Hmmm... Please don't compare it with Toyota Automobile Museum in Nagoya or Megaweb in Tokyo where we can see hundreds of classic cars collection.

Considering it is in Indonesia, managed by local owner....looking their collection is really a surprise.

The firsf floor old collections of motorbikes and cars. Few motorbikes i meant....

But they do have old European and American cars. At the edge of the floor, just before we get on the stairs... TheruToyota, it explains how the hybrid technology applied in Toyota. Well... I guess it is the first place in Indonesia to see such display for public.

The second floor.... There are other means of transportation history explanation. From the traditional carts, 20s 40s 60s 70s european and American cars collection.... Up to certain racing cars corner.

Afterwards.... Some ancient ethnical overseas collection. They immitate the display just like the original place. From old Jakarta, european 60s, Broadway of NY, UK Buckingham Palace immitation and supported by ancient cars as well. Really...

I give my conclusion first, it is a museum which you won’t regret visiting.

The area is so large, it is divided into several sections, a main building with three floors, the first floor exhibits some automobiles, bicycles, motorbikes, helicopters from some decades ago, the second floor displays the model of vessels in several centuries ago, as well as carriages, and the main objects on the third floor are models of airplanes.

From the second floor, you may use the stairs to go to a platform, where can see the mountains and the national flag of Indonesia.

Besides the main building, there are several foreign culture display sections, one is the US and the other is Europe, my favorite one is the UK part.

At 4.30pm, a car and costume parade will be performed.

You can also find some food stalls, they are operated above a small river, it is called “water market”, ducks are swimming in the river.

The staff are really friendly and helpful, they are ready to provide help, when I planned to go back to the hotel I stay in Malang, it was raining heavily, one young fellow standing in the heavy rain helped me guide the driver to pick me up, I highly appreciate his kindness.

The price of the ticket is Rp 120k, if buy from app, it is Rp 113k, it is worth every penny, and you will get a voucher can be used as Rp 7.5k when...
