7. The National Monument, or "Monas" as people commonly call it, is Jakarta's most famous landmark.
This impressive monument stands tall in the center of Merdeka Square and represents Indonesia's
struggle for independence. The 137-meter marble tower rises high into the sky, topped with a golden
flame covered in 35 kilograms of real gold that sparkles brightly in the Jakarta sunlight.
As you walk around the monument, you can hear the busy sounds of Jakarta city life - cars
honking in the distance, people chatting and taking photos, and children playing in the large green park.
The marble walls feel cool and smooth under your hands, even on hot tropical days. The polished stone
has been worn slightly by thousands of visitors who have touched it over the years.
The air around Monas smells fresh from the well-maintained grass and trees, mixed with the
faint scent of food from nearby vendors selling traditional snacks. Early morning visitors can smell coffee
and fried banana from the food stalls. Inside the monument, the air conditioning provides cool relief
from Jakarta's warm climate.
Today, Monas serves as more than just a monument - it's a living cultural center that attracts
millions of visitors. The monument houses a historical museum in the basement and offers an elevator
ride to the top where visitors can enjoy amazing views of Jakarta city. Millions of people visit this
important symbol of Indonesian freedom every year.
