Jakarta Day and Night from the Taxi

The title says it all...the photos do the talking. Just for more info....3 hours in a taxi is normal city life in Jakarta. It is worst if a rainy day during after office rush hour.

Traffic jam towards the central business district

Elevated bus stop from the road level for transJakarta buses

 

from far looks like a boy but it's a monkey wearing a mask...hoping to get some tips from cars passing by

Elevated highway, below slums of Jakarta

overflow river causing some flood

Rainy day, traffic gets worst. A boy helps to control traffic in return of a tip from passing cars. Life is tough for these kids

Traffic eased a bit like 5 seconds only before it started again

I'm still stuck in traffic after 3 hours

In summary sight seeing Jakarta from the taxi and bus was a lifetime experience for me. As you can see all my photos were taken behind the window of a public transportation there. 

 

Cheers !!, LOVE the traffic to LOVE Jakarta
