Dunia Fantasi
The biggest draw card is Dunia Fantasi, a fun park that must have raised eyebrows at the Disney legal department. Spectacular rides here include the Halilintar twisted roller-coaster ride, the Niagra flume ride and a Ferris wheel. The park gets very crowded on weekends, but on weekdays it’s fairly quiet. Take a bus or city train to Kota train station, then bus 64, 65, 125 or angkot 51. A taxi will cost around 45,000Rp from Jl Thamrin.

Klub Golf Cengkareng
Jakarta has some of the best-value golf in Asia, with 38 courses within and around the city. Klub Golf Cengkareng, near the airport, is one of the priciest, but remains the residents' favourite, with stunning fairways and a top-notch bar at the 19th. It is members only at the weekend, but you can play 18 holes through the week.

Gelanggang Renang
Swimmers have the option of the Gelanggang Renang complex, which includes a wave pool and slide pool, or Ancol Beach; the latter isn't the greatest place to swim, but boat trips to some of the Pulau Seribu islands leave from here.
