1. Ragunan Zoo
This should be in the number one list for any families living in Jakarta. Ragunan Zoo is still a 140-hectare (350-acre) outdoor area that is home to hundreds of animals, including such indigenous animals as the komodo dragon, orangutan, tapir, anoa, sumatran tiger, banteng wild ox and various birds, and lots and lots of greeneries. If you’re not here for the animals, you definitely need to come at least for the lush tropical plant it provides. What we love the most is the newer and better designed part of the zoo that is the Schmutzer Primate Center, which is home to various types of Indonesian primates including orang utans, gorillas, and chimpanzees, and also the Children Zoo that houses a dozen of interesting animals and play grounds.
Jl. Harsono No.1, Ragunan, Pasar Minggu
Hours: 7:00 am – 4:00 pm

2. Camping & outbound activities
For more greens, fresher air and more activities, why not head a few hours away from the city center and retreat in for a few nights in a lush greenery and clean unpolluted air? There a lot of camping grounds in Jakarta’s surrounding area such as Bogor and Sukabumi; in this grounds, kids can explore the nature in a safe environment, and if you have larger crowds, they can even facilitate an outbond activity for the whole family. Some of the recommended camping grounds include Tanakita (Sukabumi), Sayang Heulang (Bandung), and Gunung Pancar (Bogor).
If you don’t feel like purchasing or hauling a camping set, we recommend trying ‘glamping’ or glamorous camping; where you will get all the fun excitement of staying outdoor, but without all the fuss of regular camping. You don’t even need to cook, make the tent, or even make your own bed!
