Traveling across an archipelago like Indonesia can be a logistical challenge. Most visitors have limited themselves to popular areas like Bali or Jakarta. Indonesia itself has been acknowledged by the international community as the zamrud katulistiwa, or equatorial emerald. But sadly, only a few have dared to explore the entire country.

To give tourists a glimpse of Indonesia’s natural beauty, a park was established just outside Jakarta, serving as a one-stop information center about the country. Taman Mini Indonesia Indah, or The Miniature of Indonesia, has an area of more than 145 hectares, which has been transformed into a miniature Indonesian archipelago.

The park’s 27 galleries represent all of Indonesia’s provinces and the way of life in each.  After the cultural tour, guests can relax in one of the park’s 10 manicured gardens. Visitors who prefer to learn more about Indonesia’s natural wonders through the big screen can do so at the Keong Emas, or the state-of-the art Imax theater.

Cultural performances, events, and even local delicacies from the provinces are prepared regularly, especially during weekends and holidays, to showcase Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage.

The park is open seven days a week, giving guests ample time to explore and enjoy the sights. And if a day tour is not enough, visitors can spend the night at the Desa Wisata or Wisata Remaja serviced accommodations.
