‎Every time I walk around Jakarta, I always feel like this city has two balanced sides. On one side , skyscrapers tower majestically and sometimes feel cramped. But on the other side , there are still green spaces and cool spots. I think it can be a quick escape for those looking for healing amidst the bustling capital city of Jakarta. Well, one place that managed to make me feel at home, even to the point of wanting to return , is **Senayan Park (SPARK)**...

Maybe some people are familiar with SPARK because of its mall, but for me, the main attraction is its outdoor area. Just imagine

  • a beautiful lake
  • dancing fountains
  • shady trees
  • view from the top of the bridge offering views of the city of Jakarta

It feels like a complete package: a city park, a hangout spot, and a photo spot.

I went to SPARK in the afternoon, and honestly , it immediately gave off a different vibe. The atmosphere was cool with a gentle breeze, but it still had that irresistible Jakarta energy. So, I wanted to share my experience wandering around Senayan Park , who knows, it might inspire friends looking for a relaxing destination in Jakarta 😁...



Skywalk: The Ultimate Excitement at SPARK

‎My favorite part of SPARK is definitely the skywalk. This circular pedestrian walkway that ascends upwards allows us to see the panoramic view of Jakarta from above 🤩... From the top, the cityscape unfolds expansively , with the buildings of Sudirman and its surroundings in the background. ‎ ‎

I climbed , stopping occasionally to capture the stunning view amidst the bustling city... The higher I got, the more stunning the view. At several points , there were spots to sit or simply stop to enjoy the view. And honestly, the blue sky and towering buildings are a combination that never fails to amaze me 😁... ‎

‎At the end of the skywalk , there's a large, circular area usually used for hanging out, taking photos, and sometimes even holding events. From here, the Jakarta skyline is crystal clear... Tall buildings like Gama Tower or Wisma 46 are easily recognizable. I was in a daze for a few minutes, just enjoying the city atmosphere under the slowly drifting white clouds. ‎


Photo Spots

‎At the skywalk: Many people stop in the middle of the street to take photos with the cityscape in the background. Especially if the weather is clear, the results are really beautiful. ‎ ‎

  • At the lake: Photos with the fountain in the background are also a favorite. Especially if you take a photo from above, you can see the symmetrical fountain. ‎ ‎

  • Parks and green areas: Perfect for those who like natural-vibe photos with an urban touch.

  • Near the "I ❤️ ID" sign: This is a must-see spot! Lots of people line up to take photos here because it's such an iconic way to show you're at Senayan Park... ‎ ‎

Lake in the Middle of the City!

As soon as you arrive , you'll find an artificial lake in the middle of the SPARK area... The water is quite clear , with several fountains that add a refreshing touch 🍃... I really enjoy sitting by the lake for a while , watching the reflection of the sky and tall buildings on its surface 🏙️...

I think just sitting and relaxing while looking at the fountain feels like a short vacation. Especially if you arrive in the late afternoon , the lights around the lake start to turn on, making the atmosphere even more romantic...

The lake is also surrounded by green areas with trees and well-maintained gardens... Many families bring their children to play here, while others just take a leisurely stroll. I saw several couples busy taking photos in front of the fountain , and indeed, this spot is truly worth enjoying.

Tips for Going to SPARK To maximize your experience, I'll give you a few tips if you're planning to visit :

  1. 🌇 Come in the afternoon – The atmosphere is cooler, and you can also catch the sunset if you're lucky 😁.

  2. 🔋 Bring a fully charged camera/phone – There are so many spots you'd be sorry to miss.

  3. If possible, visit on a weekday – It's quieter than on weekends, so you'll have more freedom...

  4. Don't forget to explore the mall too – There are lots of interesting tenants to hang out or just browse 😅...

My visit to Senayan Park was one of my most enjoyable experiences in Jakarta... This place managed to provide a rare combination: a green park atmosphere, a calming lake, and of course, a magnificent cityscape view... All can be enjoyed in one easily accessible location. I highly recommend stopping by Senayan Park. Who knows, after stopping by like me, you might fall in love with its vibe too.


👉 That's my story about my visit to Senayan Park... Have any of you been here before? Or is there another favorite spot in Jakarta that has a similar atmosphere?✨

Ooh, Jakarta is a beautiful river city, my friend, I really want to go to Jakarta @agungprasetyo

I hope you can visit and enjoy another side of Jakarta, my friend.

Hopefully my friend

Beautiful shots😍 but I wonder is the weather so hot?

For the skywalk, the weather might feel very hot, friends, but there's no need to worry because Senayan Park has many trees surrounding the lake. So, the suggestion for enjoying the beauty of Jakarta from the skywalk is better in the afternoon or even at night, friends.

Jakarta seems really a two faced place with a modern part and a green part the fire of the buildings it's amazing 😍😍

Exactly, @noemilunastorta ! That's what makes Jakarta so special...😁 the perfect blend of modern city and green scenery. You can experience both worlds in one amazing city! 😊🌆🌿

Awesome cityscape photography stuff @agungprasetyo friend!!!
