Hello everyone, how are you? I hope you are doing well. Recently, I went to a park in Jakarta, called Taman Literasi Masa Christina Tiawuhu. The most enjoyable thing about this place is that it uses the name of a female hero from Indonesia.
Usually, both street names and parks are taken from male heroes. With the existence of this place, it indicates that the government also cares about female heroes from Indonesia. That's what I underline from this place. This place is actually very strategic, located around Blok M and Melawai. A very viral place in Jakarta. Almost every Sunday this place is crowded with visitors.
Well, the area of this place is not as large as other parks, but this place has a library. Therefore, this place is named Taman Literasi. I have reviewed the library of this park. This park has an area of 9,710 square meters, and was once rationalized in 2021.

Before telling about the facilities of this place, I want to tell you that this place also has an important history, namely it has been standing since 1948, at the beginning of independence. And this park was originally designed by M. Susilo, but was only inaugurated in 1955.
And at that time, this park became the first modern satellite city in Indonesia. Slowly walking and Jakarta grew, only then was this place known as the Martha Kristina Tiahatu Literacy Park. And the most enjoyable thing about this is the design of this place which has a landscaper concept, which is by disguising buildings in the park area and making them one unit.

So visually this place is very green and original. There is a park, there is also a pond in the middle. And not infrequently this place becomes a concert venue and several other activities. In terms of design, this place is different from other places. There are hoses, there are green gardens, and there are also food stalls around the pool. And also, here there are two-story buildings.
Where on top there are some plants and some people can relax also for the afternoon. Usually, it is used when enjoying the dusk in Jakarta. We can see the dusk, then the MRT. It is very beautiful and very pleasant. So that is also what causes this park to always be full of visitors.
Another thing that is very pleasant in this place is that there is no tabis, no crowd and other facilities are very complete ranging from children's facilities, adult facilities and increasingly equipped with a prayer room and bathroom. Among other parks, this place is very complete, ranging from food, places to relax, prayer rooms and others. That's all I can tell you. See you again.
