Jalan Ijen Boulevard

Jalan Besar Ijen

A tree-lined avenue of royal palms from the Dutch colonial era, with old colonial villas on both sides and the Neo-Gothic Ijen Cathedral.

Jalan Ijen was planned in the 1920s by the Dutch architect Karsten. Royal palms fill the central green strip, and on both sides are well-preserved colonial-era villas. At the north end stand the Neo-Gothic Ijen Cathedral (Cathedral of Our Lady of Mount Carmel) and the Brawijaya Museum. On Sunday mornings the avenue is closed to cars, and residents jog and ride bicycles, with food stalls along the road. It is ideal for morning or evening strolls and photos; the full stretch is about 1.5 km.
