Top Culture in Jakarta

I suggest visiting on a weekday if you can. The weekends can be super crowded, and I enjoyed the exhibits way more when there were fewer people around.

I recommend going on a weekday if you can. It was much quieter when I visited on Tuesday, and I got to enjoy the exhibits without rushing.

If you enjoy photography try to go around 2 PM when the sun is perfect for some great shots outside the museum. I wish I had done that!

I think you should bring some cash. The museum has a small shop with lovely crafts, but they only accept cash. Don't forget to haggle a bit too!

My advice is to look for any special events or exhibits happening during your visit. I stumbled upon a cool display that wasn’t advertised, and it really made my day.

Remember to wear comfortable shoes! The exhibition halls are pretty large, and I found myself walking a lot. Bring a water bottle too – it can get hot inside!
