Jakarta’s hidden gems often provide delightful surprises amidst the hustle and bustle of this noisy metropolitan city. Behind the chaos of the capital lies a wealth of hidden places and services that many have yet to discover — and they can offer truly useful experiences or solutions.
In this article, we’ll explore five hidden gems in Jakarta that are worth checking out. Each one offers value that could greatly enhance your life in today’s fast-paced era.
Sky Garden at UP Thamrin Nine – Indonesia’s Tallest Skyscraper
Standing at 385 meters tall, Autograph Tower holds the MURI record as the tallest building in Indonesia — and even the Southern Hemisphere. While primarily serving as an office building, it now opens its doors to the public with a 360-degree view from the top.
You can visit the Sky Garden at UP Thamrin Nine. After paying an entrance fee of Rp 135,000 for adults and Rp 80,000 for children, you’ll be taken up to the 106th floor to experience an incredible panoramic view of Jakarta.
The Sky Garden welcomes you with beautifully arranged climbing plants and a cascading water feature that adds a luxurious, aesthetic touch. A number of attractions await, from the glass floor to the heart-pounding UPswing — a swing ride high above the city.
As a newly launched destination, more amenities are planned to make Sky Garden an even more comfortable and exciting place to stay longer.
Habitat Park SCBD – Botanical Garden, Mini Zoo, and a Cozy Café
Coffee with animals in the middle of Jakarta? Yes — and in the heart of the SCBD (Sudirman Central Business District), no less! Habitat Park is a refreshing escape for white-collar workers who need a break from looming deadlines.
The park features a botanical garden, with some sections indoors. A small pond, lush greenery, and a few friendly animals — including graceful koi fish and charming white ducks — create a peaceful, nature-inspired atmosphere. The sound of a manmade waterfall adds to the serene ambiance.
Autograph Tower Park – A Free Hangout Spot with City Light Views
If you’re still undecided about heading up to the Sky Garden, try chilling out at the park just below Autograph Tower. There are plenty of attractions you can enjoy while facing the city’s tallest skyscraper.
Here, you’ll find a charming coffee shop called Di Bawah Tangga (literally “Under the Stairs”), conveniently located — you guessed it — next to the stairs. Enjoy a cup of coffee while soaking in the calming atmosphere.
The park features beautiful landscaping, an artificial waterfall, and is one of the best spots to watch Jakarta’s sunset, with the city lights reflecting off the surrounding skyscrapers.
SpaceHub Storage Indonesia – One Location at Chubb Square, Thamrin Nine
Living spaces in Jakarta, especially in central areas, are getting smaller. With land becoming more scarce and prices continually rising, many residents — perhaps even you — are now occupying more compact homes.
The consequence? Less room to move and store things. While you may want to own more items, limited space forces you to choose practicality over preference.
But there’s no need to worry about where to put your unused belongings anymore. SpaceHub offers self-storage units located in the heart of Jakarta. With premium-quality facilities and a secure environment, your items will stay safe and in top condition.
House of Padel – Play Sports with a Skyline View of Jakarta
Padel has gained massive popularity in Indonesia, attracting those looking for a fun, social, and healthy activity. In Jakarta, the sport continues to grow, with more courts opening to accommodate the rising interest.
Agora Mall, a vibrant lifestyle mall in the city center, is riding the trend with its House of Padel — a spectacular padel court located on the 26th floor, 70 meters above ground.
As one of the latest additions to the local padel scene, this venue provides a unique experience for both beginners and seasoned players, complete with stunning skyline views of Jakarta.
These are just a few of the hidden gems you can explore in central Jakarta. It’s time to embrace the lifestyle of modern urbanites!
