National Museum of Indonesia

Highly recommend if you wanna spend your time with your family or friends here! I can say, this museum is the most interactive museum in this town! They have some interactive installations to deliver the information. You can buy the tickets on the spot too and no have to wait, so don’t worry about it. When you visited here in the afternoon until night, you’ll see the magical indoor park when the lights on! 🤩

It was great to get to visit now that it has been remodeled. It's a wonderful space with a fair range of things to see. The keris section is quite large and maybe a bit wider range of items in that area could make it a bit more interesting. It is clear they're growing into the space so it will be interesting to see how they develop the museum over time. I hope too that other similar museums will follow their lead and continue to develop interesting and educational opportunities for everyone who visits.

The National Museum of Indonesia is a fantastic place to dive into the country’s rich history and cultural heritage. The collections are extensive, covering everything from ancient artifacts to modern-day relics that truly showcase Indonesia’s diverse culture. The exhibits are well-organized and informative, making it easy to learn and appreciate the depth of each piece on display. One minor downside was that some areas felt a bit warm, especially in the older parts of the museum where the air conditioning seemed less effective. If you’re planning to visit, I’d recommend bringing a portable fan or water bottle to stay cool and comfortable. Despite this, the experience is well worth it—highly recommended for history lovers and anyone wanting a deeper look into Indonesia’s heritage!

The museum is still busy renovating and making it more comfortable for visitors. The "ImersifA" show feels more for kids education - short and simple animation. In the theatre, the video was tilted and no one bothered to fix it.

The museum has reopened it's doors after a tragic fire and is looking better than ever. The renovation has modernized some of the exhibit spaces and a sparser selection of beautiful sculpture has been given room to breathe in the main hall. It would be nice if they could improve the signage and train more staff to help visitors but one step at a time. Packed on weekends so try to go early during the week for the best experience. Buy tickets online to avoid the lines as the admission price is still very inexpensive.

A nice place to visit over time. I used to come here often since I was in elementary school. It was dusty and unmaintained, but lots of things to see and learn from. Moving forward, the museum is getting better. More collections, more comfortable, new buildings and sorts. So sad that the fire destroyed almost everything I remember about the place. In result most of the preserved history are gone. It was devastating. Now they are trying to make the place more interesting with the interactive program and immersive shows, which is good. I hope more people will come to the museum to learn and appreciate our own history, not only for the sake of viral contents of the social media.

The museum is bright and well-designed. It offers several interactive activities for visitors. The space is not too large and is very accessible for people with disabilities and strollers. On Saturday mornings, the ticket line outside can be quite long. For those arriving by car or motorcycle, you can park in the basement and purchase tickets on the lower floor without going to the main entrance. Only cashless payments are accepted. On the ground floor, there's a food court and a kids' play area. The number of children allowed in the play area is limited (70 per session). The play area has a variety of toys, including books and building blocks. Ticket prices are affordable. Unfortunately, the immersive room was sold out when I visited early in the morning. The number of visitors is limited for each session. There's an additional fee for the immersive room (35k/person).

Not too big but not too small of a museum, just right! We appreciated what was displayed but we wish there could be more. Also they can improved on signages on where to enter/exit to properly read and appreciate everything that was on displayed (in a chronological manner if possible). 1-2 hours of visiting here should be enough!
