Jalan Jaksa

Hanging out at the café, clubbing or just going to the cinema are such the great ways to calm our nerves, after the long, exhausted hours at work. It’s not difficult to do such things at Jakarta, since we can find any kind of entertaining spots almost everywhere. Well, you just name what you want and voila, you’ll find the place and have some fun there.

It’s worth also to visit the different spots of this city. That new experience will give us another perspective about Jakarta. We can fell another ambience of the new places we’ve never seen before, get the different perspective and have fun too there.

One of the places you should visit is Jalan Jaksa. It’s a name of the street near Kebon Sirih, Central Jakarta. It is famous as a paradise for those who are called the backpackers, just like Bukit Bintang in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia or Khaosan Road in Bangkok, Thailand.

We can find a lot of cheap guesthouses there, surrounded by cafés, bars, handy crafts stores and many more. Its atmosphere will make us comfortable and feel like at home with the hospitality and familiar treats from the local people around. I’m sure you’ll enjoy your time there and wish to come back again.

Don’t worry about the hectic and crowded situation we use to see in Jakarta. It’s quite tranquil here. There aren’t many cars or bicycles passing by this street. This condition makes you able to walk along Jalan Jaksa, feel the night ambience, try new food or drink and maybe flirt with one or two cute girls or handsome guys there.
