Dense incense and candle smoke wafts through the rooms.

Must-see attractions

Galeri Nasional

　　Over 1700 works of art by foreign and Indonesian artists are part of the National Gallery collection. While only a few works are on display at any time, there are also large spaces for regular – and well-curated – special exhibits. The centrepiece of the sprawling palm-shaded complex is an...

Museum Nasional

　　The National Museum is the best of its kind in Indonesia and an essential visit.

Museum Bank Indonesia

　　This museum presents an engaging and easily consumed history of Indonesia from a loosely financial perspective, in a grand, expertly restored, neoclassical former bank headquarters that dates from the early 20th century. All the displays (including lots of zany audiovisuals) are slickly presented, with exhibits about the spice trade and...
