Good place for those who like arts or people who like to take a selfie. Other than art lover, this place also suitable for children to learn about art, especially contemporary art. In most of the paintings and sculptures, there are 2 explanations, the general description and the explanation for kids that use lighter and more interactive words. This museum has the collection of art from earlier time to modern time, which showed how arts are changing over time.
As this museum is mainly focused on contemporary art, some people will not find the paintings and sculptures are visually satisfying or meaningful. So, people with this opinion may see this museum as the place only for taking pictures. The placement of the paintings for the visitor to see are a little bit messy. For example, when you enter the museum, you can go to the right to see the mirror arts, go left to watch a video, or go straight to see the painting. So, at some point, the visitors may think where to go as there are so many ways to go. But, overall, I like this place and recommend people to come here.

I visit this park when there is an event that take place in there. I think there are so many event that held in Taman Ismail Marzuki, and most of them are art or cultural related events. I really love when they conduct a book event, like poem reading, writing workshop that invites some known writer from around the world. I also like the mural in the park and the design of the building.

I’ve never been to the WSE GANDARIA CITY center, but I met some of the english trainers from this center through online classes. Both Mrs. Ria and Mr Brian are super awesome trainers, who have very unique ways to handle the online classes during this pandemic. I wish WSE would offer more online classes for Mrs Ria and Mr Brian, so members from other centers can join the classes. I also hope I could visit the center to meet them in person. The fun teachers that I have met make it seem like a lot of fun thing happen at this center.
Thanks for making learning English so fun.

One of the best Hotels I have ever visited....very artistic place ...you can see it even before you enter the hotel....graffiti and arts everywhere around the hotel walls ...even the table and chairs are made uniquely...the customer service was the cherry on top for the place...these people are so friendly, My husband and I wonder every time, how these people so down to earth and genuine...Rooms are also very clean and fragrant... the verses which written on each package in the bathroom is kinda funny and creative, which light up your mood ...Also within the very small notice they arranged a birthday cake for my husband...that is very appreciated...Do recommend this place when you visit Jakarta...you can get great service within a neutral budget.....

The place is showing 10 rooms that has special decorations. It’s really compact and can’t hold up too many people, so the queue is crazy and waiting is really took a long time. I came in the morning and have to wait about 45 minutes before i can come in to the rooms. But the pictures turn out really good. The staffs friendly and also willing to help take a pictures.

A good place to enjoy gelato with various tastes. I visited them today (Saturday 4 July 2020) and ordered Vanilla and Klappertaart flavour. Tastes very good and ought to have some more!
