Here it is Betawi Village, Fun and Cheap Tourism in South Jakarta!

I have lived in Jakarta since I was a child. Since the age of a toddler, both parents have been invited to move to this big city. In the past, I routinely went to tourist attractions in Jakarta every year, so I knew all the museums here.

That was about 30 years ago. At present, Jakarta's tourist attractions continue to grow. Some entrance ticket prices are barely affordable to the lower middle class. So, when the holiday arrived my husband and I had to turn my brain to find cheap and not boring entertainment places in this area. Until finally a friend recommended Kampung Betawi Setu Babakan.

Actually, DKI Jakarta as the capital city of the country, has 4 cultural reserves, namely Kampung Betawi Rawa Belong, Kampung Betawi Setu Babakan, Kampung or Rumah Si Si Doel, and Kampung Si Pitung

Of the four cultural heritage sites, I chose to invite the family to Betawi Village Setu Babakan. The consideration is the close distance to our house which is located on the outskirts of the city, the border of Jakarta, South Tangerang and Depok, West Java. Besides that the Betawi peculiarities are very thick here compared to other places.

Kampung Betawi Setu Babakan is located in the South Jakarta area. Border with Depok, West Java or precisely at Jalan Muhammad Kahfi, RT 13 RW 8, Srengseng Sawah, District Jagakarsa, South Jakarta. Setu is a small artificial lake located in the middle of this village and is the center of several existing tourism activities.

Kampung Betawi Setu Babakan is not just a cultural heritage that grows by itself. Seeing the area that most of its citizens still maintain the beauty and Betawi culture, this village was officially used as a cultural heritage on 18 August 2000 by the governor of the Jakarta DKI at that time, namely Governor Sutiyoso who was familiarly called by the name Bang Yos.

There are two reasons that make Betawi Village Setu Babakan form a cultural heritage. First, the Governor saw the area around Setu Babakan still maintained its authenticity. In addition, some original arts are also often shown here. Second, the city of Jakarta developed into modern. Therefore, the right cultural heritage is needed so that Betawi culture which is part of national culture is not extinct.
