These pictures taken from sunda kelapa old harbour. This harbour was built in the 16 th century. Long, long time ago... this is where the Portuguese traded with the Hindu Kingdom of Pajajaran. Since than this port has belonged to the Portuguese and Dutch.
Dutch domination of Jakarta and the rest of Indonesia began from this area, an old fort and trading post of the Dutch East Indies Company can still be seen now.
Nowadays, Sunda Kelapa is a fisherman's wharf and an inter-island port.
