Escaping Jakarta for Indonesia's SWEATIEST City | Bogor 🇮🇩
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 07. 2024
- Following a fulfilling few days in Jakarta, Indonesia's capital, I decided to take a break from the city and catch the next train out of Stasiun Jakarta Kota.
Without any particular plan, I was excited to see where my adventure would take me. After the spectacle of the Dirgahayu TNI military display, and indeed the threat of food poisoning in Glodok market, I was hoping to find something more relaxing for my downtime over the weekend.
The next service was to Bogor, a town that (according to some on-the-move research on wikipedia) was known for its epic botanical gardens (Kebun Raya Bogor) and presidential palace (Istana Bogor).
However, as idyllic as this sounded, I also learned that Bogor is regarded as one of the most overcrowded cities in the world - with 87% humidity and 23 days of rainfall per month...
Alas, my hopes of escaping the clutches of the capital and the heat were dashed, but I was still determined to see the sights and uncover more about the Dutch colonial history.
As I ventured towards the park, past the sign for Alun-Alun Kota Bagor, I soon learned of the city's pollution, which made reaching the gardens all the more of a relief.
Having taken a few selfies with the friendly local Indonesian people, I explored the botanical gardens and made my way towards the presidential palace, and Dutch cemetery to absorb more of what Bogor is about.
Suitably impressed, I left the green oasis and made my way back to the station through the increasing traffic and pollution to catch the train back to Jakarta. But I must admit, given the unreal humidity, I was looking forward to a cold shower and couple of Bintang's at my hotel overlooking Jakarta's epic skyline.

P.S. Given my former professional background as an investment manager, personal finance is something that I strongly believe in.
I'll be working on a side project in the coming months to help educate people around how investments work, sharing some of the tips and tricks that I used in the City before I embarked on my adventures.
In the meantime, you can see which stocks I'm invested in, and how well (or badly) I'm doing, via the link below:
💹 My stock portfolio (real-time): etoro.tw/3QJ6bcF
Although I've been a client of eToro for a number of years, and would remain so regardless of any affiliate terms, I do have an agreement with them which pays me a fee if you happen to open an account via the link (it costs you nothing extra and is very welcome towards my travels for a something that I'm using anyway).
Whether or not you have any interest in this stuff is up to you - and I wont ever promote it directly in my content. But if you do want to learn more, then you can see what I'm doing in real-time there, and it might perhaps inspire you to take control of your financial future.
(As its the serious world of finance, I'm also required to share this riveting disclaimer: eToro is a multi-asset investment platform. The value of your investments may go up or down. Your capital is at risk. Other fees apply.)
OMG! There was me at 02:04. I accidently saw your video on my CZcams's home and lead to these video. When i saw it, i knew these lad whose i saw at the train station, doing the vlogging lol 🤭🤣
Speaking of video, i'm glad you've enjoyed Bogor by visit the Botanical Garden. Well, you can try to say "Hatur Nuhun" next time 😉
I hope you have a good time in my country, mate 🙏🏼 i hope to see you around
That’s brilliant! And nice to meet you my friend, in person! Terima kasih for the advice and well wishes. I’ll be sure to return 🇮🇩
Jakarta (661 km2) only has population of 10 million people, while 33 million people are them living in greater Jakarta including Bogor, Tangerang, Bekasi, and Depok.
Top facts. Terima kasih
Was live in big city for 5 years. Got feed up. Now live at suburban at Yogyakarta Indonesia. More trees, more fresh air and calm environment. Just perfect.
I totally get it - and "jogja" is meant to be beautiful. I in fact did the same in my home country after nearly a decade of living in London. Nothing beats the outdoors
@@InvestedAdventure Liked your travel stories. Keep posting more videos.
Never see before a vlogger go to bogor botanical garden, i think this my first time to watch, what a lovely video James 🙂
That’s wonderful, this type of comment gives me great satisfaction - always a bonus to have brightened someone’s day whilst out doing my thing
So, who's been to Bogor? What did you think? Hit me in the comments!
Would love to hear your experiences (and maybe some tips for surviving the humidity next time!) See you next time!
God video.. Welcome in Bogor Indonesia..
Thanks Jari, I’m coming back next week… Is there anywhere you recommend?
Good video, I'm waiting for the next video
terima kasih! the next one is even more fun ;-)

@@InvestedAdventure welcome
Bogor is one of the city that located in the west Java province. the capital city of west Java is Bandung City. in the west Java there are different City called Bogor, Bekasi city, Depok city, tangerang city that located in the west Java province. so the capital City of Indonesia are Jakarta was surrounded by many City around west Java province. there are still many City are surrounding Jakarta. another city outside of Jakarta you can visit BSD Bumi Serpong Damai city in tangerang. if you go to south Jakarta you will feel the difference lifestyle of Jakarta because in south Jakarta are developing city that many celebrity houses, business man and many more rich people live in south Jakarta because the weather are more coolest than North Jakarta are the lowest land in Jakarta that close to the sea. another district are west Jakarta and east Jakarta as well centrak of Jakarta are the government building are located in Central Jakarta.
Indeed, this makes sense
@@InvestedAdventure Indonesia have 38 provinces from west of Indonesia in Sumatera province to East of Indonesia in Papua province of Indonesia.
every province has many different City and every province in Indonesia have it's own capital City. example like my hometown is located in North Sulawesi and the capital City of North Sulawesi province is Manado city. North Sulawesi will be divided into many different City.
and in one city it will devided into different town and every town it will devided into many different villages. every province will be ruled by Governor is the head of every provinces in Indonesia. and Indonesia country will be ruled by our president as the Head of Indonesia country and the capital City of Indonesia is Jakarta . in the future our capital City will be no longer in Jakarta, it will be moving to another Province in East Kalimantan province. Jakarta will be a normal city in the future. all the government officials will be moving to east kalimantan province in the future.
Every province they have their own tradition like language ( local language in every province ), food, music instruments, customs, dancers as well traditional houses in every province of Indonesia. enjoy your travel in Indonesia and you'll surprise with the wonderful and Wonderland of Indonesia are so unique and magically are different from any others country in the world. Enjoy every moment in Indonesia.
Besides Botanical Garden , you can try on your next trip to the region around Puncak that very popular with Gede-Pangrango Mountain view, Mount Halimun-Salak National Park (Salak Mountain), Taman Sari Areas, and Sentul (There are leuwi hejo, pancar, pinus forest, etc). Happy traveling
It sounds beautiful, thank you so much for your suggestion and support here
SALAM DARI❤ JAKARTA, BEKASI, TANGERANG, DEPOK, BOGOR, SUKABUMI, BANDUNG, SEMARANG, SOLO, YOGYAKARTA, SURABAYA' MALANG, KEDIRI, MADIUN'❤❤
Love it! Mighty Indonesia 🇮🇩
Nice video..watching from jakarta
Thanks for watching, Terima kasih
Looked really warm! Expecting a very short haircut haha
You never know!!
Bro you'll make a good reporter or host of documentary, I can see it in a few years, keep it up!
Very kind of you to say, I appreciate your encouragement all the more given that I’m only a couple of months into CZcams. All being well I’ll be able to grow the channel sufficiently to never have to do anything else but these adventures with you guys!!
You are very adventurous. If you want to visit another city, take the long distant trains to Bandung or Jogjakarta or Surabaya. Safe travel!
Terima kasih! And you should check out my Mount Bromo video - and another one I did from Surabaya just before that 👍 they’re in my Indonesia playlist
Very nice
Terima kasih!
Enjoy Indonesia mister good luck
termia kasih friend!
I don't know what card you use but if you have any of these cards:
- Emoney, BRIZZI, Tapcash/Jaklinko, Flazz, Jakcard
these cards can be used for KRL (the train you took to Bogor) also KRL, MRT, LRT, Transjakarta bus and any other BRT busses in Indonesia (e.g in Medan/Bali), toll-road throughout Indonesia, convenience store (ask with cashiers first), parking (check for logo). If the one you used in KMT, it's only good for KRL or maybe transjakarta and usually you can get a refund (for the card), the 40K you spent is for the card and credit. Jakcard can also be used for museums around Jakarta.
Alun-alun means city center and usually in a form of park surrounded by roads, for Jakarta it's Monas. If you go to other cities, there will be alun-alun too.
About the weather It's been hotter than usual btw. This year we experience prolonged dry season with rivers dried up even rivers that usually never dry.
That’s awesome, terima kasih for such detailed insights
😊😊The relationship between humans and humans, the relationship between humans and God must be balanced, bro, so enjoy the vibrations whatever your religion
Couldn’t have said it better myself!!
Explor daerah puncak bogor&taman safari Mr,tempatNya 👍..
Dekat dari situ.
Mantap. Terima kasih
Lest go taman mini indonesia indah.miniature indonesia
Mega Indonesia 😎
@@InvestedAdventureActually...what he meant was that there is a theme park called "Taman Mini Indonesia" or Indonesia in Miniature located in East Jakarta where you can get an overview of all the Indonesian Provinces plus various other attractions...you can take the LRT [Light Metro Train) in Sudirman Street/Dukuh atas all the way to Taman Mini....it's worth the visit and it'll take at least half a day to visit the major venus
..😊
Next exploring to skywalk Senayan park of Jakarta city, skywalk Centeral park Neo Soho, Pacific place mall SCBD Jakarta, PIK 2 aloha Jakarta, savaya beach club Bali, ATLAS BEACH FAST BALI, finns beach Bali, Gili Trawangan Lombok, Mandalika Lombok, mount Rinjani Lombok, mount Bromo in East Java, and labuan bajo 🏝️ komodo dragon island in Flores INDONESIAN ❤️❤️🙏🇮🇩
So many great suggestions here, Terima kasih! I did manage a few of those behind the scenes, but there are videos of Bromo and Surabaya in my Indonesia playlist
Hi bro semoga chanel nya sukses,,,
Terima kasih, brother!
Welcome in Bogor, city 1000 angkot.
Super Bogor
Do you want to get a lot of spectators, try visiting one of the mountains and lakes in Indonesia, namely Mount Bromo, Mount Rinjani, Lake Toba, there are beautiful views ☺
Check my video from a couple of weeks ago - its in the Indo playlist
czcams.com/video/9jyioJxcoo0/video.html
They know "kebun Raya" instead of botanical garden.
Terima kasih!
Going to lombok !!!
Ah, I have yet to visit there - maybe in my future travels through Indonesia
You can also using LRT to Bogor
very nice
Prambanan temple
🙏
Bogor nicked name kota hujan (city of rain) but recently shift into kota seribu angkot (city with thousand cab)
Dont forget to chill out on puncak restaurant of Taman Safari
say hi to President of Indonesia on his palace next to the pond 😅
This made me laugh! I like your humour 😆
Go to borobudur temple😊
It’s a shame I missed this - maybe on my next visit to Bogor
While in Bogor you should've gone to Puncak area
What is this mystical area of Bogor you speak of? Could it get any better than the botanical gardens?
@@InvestedAdventure Puncak is a highland area located between mount Salak, mount bunder and mount gede-pangrango.. The climate is chilly with possibilities of fog on the morning/afternoon...lots activities you can do/see in there like Cilember waterfall, Safari Zoo park, tea plantation at Gunung mas, at-ta'awun mosque (located at hill top), etc.. Puncak area is one of the favorite gateway place for the Jakartans.. It can be a good video content for you perhaps
Try pangrango train Bogor Sukabumi
Wow, is this train special? I thought the metro was great
22:04 omg hutan cok
See my other video in Warsaw
11:02 "Thank you, Suksema". Yes, Sundanese speak "Hatur nuhun" instead of "Suksema".
Terima kasih!
13:52 "Suksma" is Balinese, the locals may not understand you. Try "Nuhun", which means thank you in Sundanese, the language native to the region
Thanks for that - thats a new one, after terima kasih!
Instead of that better say "terimakasih" Bcoz every region in Indonesia has their own language, so prefer using the national language which is more understandable of every Indonesian. Or google translate is ok to try.
Puncak dong mr
Mantap!
i am jakarta people. i dont understand suksuma. this is not bali
I had no idea until the helpful people here in the comments pointed it out… no Javan corrected me so I wasn’t to know!
Next time use google maps instead of asking people on the street because many of them don't understand english
Ok chief, thanks for that tip
4:12 seuri si teteh
Ok!
Keren y google Sekarang b Sunda bisa k bahasa Indonesia 👍👍
Subtitle Indonesia
Can I do this automatically? Or does it require manual translation? I'd love to do this for you guys
you're funny
Inspired by great surroundings - thank you for having me 🇮🇩
"i didn't expect this bla bla bla"
Sorry, what did you think? All jungle? Poor sad people the whole country? Bad railways and transportation?
Come on, to all the western vlogger, please stop saying "i didn't expect this bla bla bla" when you see something better than the one in your country. Just appreciate things instead of underestimate things.
I think you’re being very critical. In complete honesty, for a country that lacks the basics of pavements, clean air and sanitation, public transport is a plus
@@InvestedAdventure And now you're the one who's being critical with what you just wrote. Bad sanitaion, clean water, etc. Well, definitely you know nothing about Indonesia, so please learn how to appreciate things. And you need viewers of course by making video about Indonesia. Good luck.
Sub indo mister
Teu kaharti bahasana😭
Mantap! Terima kasih my friend 😎
Lu kok ngomong sendiri sih bang?
Its a new concept I call vlogging
Jakarta is slum City
Have you been?
💥 _15:12_
*James, I just researched about you and I found out that you're the Million Dollar Trader Chief Investment Strategist and interviewed in Vox Market channel*
Many moons ago, it was something I did alongside my main occupation as a fund manager. I believe strongly in financial education and helping the public understand how money works
@@InvestedAdventure great! 😃 👍
