Lonely Planet review

Along the bay front, between Kota and Tanjung Priok, Taman Impian Jaya Ancol is built on land reclaimed in 1962. This 300-hectare landscaped recreation park, providing nonstop entertainment, has hotels, nightclubs, theatres and a variety of sporting facilities. It's easily the city's best entertainment for kids in the city.

Taman Impian Jaya Ancol's prime attractions include Pasar Seni (Art Market), which has sidewalk cafés, a host of craft shops, art exhibitions, and live music every Friday and Saturday night, a swimming complex, the water-themed Seaworld aquarium and Gelanggang Samudra, with a boat ride and dolphin shows.

The park can be 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 mikrolet (small taxi) 51. A taxi will cost around 30,R from Jl Thamrin.
