POTD: Pinisi in Sunda Kelapa
From 2018 03 31 Jakarta |
Today's photo-of-the-day is of a motorized pinisi at Sunda Kelapa, the old port in Jakarta, Indonesia. The "port only accommodates pinisi, a traditional two masted wooden sailing ship serving inter-island freight service in the archipelago. Although it is now only a minor port, Jakarta has its origins in Sunda Kelapa and it played a significant role in the city's development."
P.S. Fifty points if you spotted "L" in the lower left.

POTD: Bike Share in Jakarta
From 2018 03 31 Jakarta |
Today's photo-of-the-day is from Fatahillah Square in Jakarta, Indonesia. The building in the background is the original Stadhuis (city hall) of Batavia, built in 1710 by the Dutch. Today it's a museum. But it was the bike-share program that caught my eye. The bright pink and blue bicycles can be rented by the hour for touring this historic district.

POTD: Jakarta Skyline
From 2018 03 31 Jakarta |
Today's photo-of-the-day is of the skyline of Jakarta, Indonesia, from the Gran MeliĆ” Hotel. Jakarta is a monstrously big, modern city. It has equally big growing pains. Jakarta could learn a lot from American cities. On the other hand, American cities could learn a lot from Jakarta. All cities have the same basic needs and face the same pressures. No one has it all figured out.
