Bundaran HI & Selamat Datang Monument
Bundaran Hotel Indonesia
Jakarta's most iconic urban landmark. A welcome monument built for the 1962 Asian Games stands at the center of a fountain roundabout.
Bundaran HI (Hotel Indonesia Roundabout) sits in the center of Thamrin Boulevard. At the center of the roundabout is the Welcome Monument, a pair of bronze statues of a waving man and woman, built to greet visitors to the 1962 Asian Games. Surrounding it are early Jakarta high-rises and the large shopping malls Grand Indonesia and Plaza Indonesia. Every Sunday morning, the avenue becomes car-free, filled with runners and cyclists, which makes it a good time to experience city life. At night, the fountains are lit up, and photographing the traffic from the mall's skybridge makes for a great night view. The MRT Bundaran HI station is right here.
