" National Monument is the icon of Jakarta. If you go to Jakarta you must come here. When weekend night this place is quite crowd, you must be careful. This place doesn't provide chairs for sit. If you wanna enjoy traveling here like picnic you must bring cushion or carpet. Enjoy here with your friends and family hattadev "

" This is THE icon of Jakarta... For licensed drone pilots, the gold-tipped monument is also the ultimate spot to fly LEGALLY because of the strict airspace/local/security clearance that has to be obtained before one is allowed to fly within its premises without getting into trouble. Once all of that is taken care of, it’s really worth the effort.... "

" Wow.. Good fun and Great views!!
You get to see the view of Jakarta city.
I've been here several times, but this is the first time to rise to the top, with my parents.
Come in the morning to avoid the queues.
When you visit Jakarta, this place should definitely be on your list of things to see. "

" A great place to visit with your family especially if you have young kids. The place is huge and well taken care. It is crowded in the weekend with families and friends just hanging out and killing time. A good track for walking and slow jog. A must visit place in Jakarta... "

" The pride of all Indonesians for fighting for independence. I dilute the Indonesian government for educating their people by having a pictorial museum on the lower level. And if u r lucky, u may be able to witness the opening of the golden door which has a hidden golden frame face and contains the declaration of independence signed by the first Indonesian president. Also, u can view the city of Jakarta from the top level by using lift from the back entrance. Notice on the tip of the monument with the shape of frame is plated with 50kg of pure gold😘😘😘 "

" A MUST to-go place when you are in Jakarta! There are parks and food court nearby and also you can come and visit the museum. If you lucky enough, you can go on the top of Monas ( normally many people in line from the entry door, for the lift). My suggestion is you can come there during weekdays to avoid the long queue. A good place for hangout and morning jogging. "

" Nicely built monument and museum to showcase Indonesia's independence. Well maintained garden and huge surrounding area. I couldn't find any direction board at the entry for tourists who come from abroad to guide correctly to the monument. You will have to enter through an underground pathway to the main structure. However the security personnel are helpful though they speak only few English words. They charge a nominal fee to enter the monument. There is only one elevator to take all visitors to the top viewing deck and therefore you have to wait in a queue. The view from top is wonderful. There are few telescopes fixed but not that much powerful to see a vast area clearly. "

Unfortunately the queue is very very slow as there is only one elevator.

Recommend evening time when it is less hot after the sun goes down. "

" Good view. It is free enterance just to the park. Good for jogging track. Not recommended to go in daylight. It has 2 football and 1 basketball courts. There is a mosque and are a lot of traditional food stall outside the park. This place has historical value. Also, there is a museum inside the Monas building. There is a train that will ride you from the gate to the main building. "

You have to go underground to get to the tower as there is a grid all around it. Look for the entrance, it's a small tent on the side.
There are lots of illustrations under the tower, that will allow you to learn more about Indonesia history. "

" Monument surrounded by large park and grass area. People from Jakarta come here to escape the busy city and relax. We couldn't go in the monument because it opened at 7 pm. But if you want views it's better to go to some observation deck like the Skye Bar. "

" This is Jakarta's biggest scam
Good thing is that there's no tourist price for entry. What's not nice is that only two gates are open for entry, disallowing the use of the massive park surrounding the monument as a pedestrian thoroughfare around the city centre.
To enter, you *need* to buy an NFC prepaid card. Even on a slow day, the queue to the top is horrendous: not particularly long but moves very slowly, due to the lift only taking about 7 people on each slow trip (we queued for about 1 hour).
There was nothing to see at the top and the penny binoculars didn't come with any instructions. You would then have to queue to come back down (another 1/2 hour, no stairs).
You might have some fun with the diorama, giving you a condensed view of the history of Indonesia. "

" It's a nice big Park, and a tower. Most gates to the park are closed. It's nice to walk about in relative peace. You can assend the tower (can't remember the price, I think 50k idr?) for a smoggy view of a huge city. Paths etc are a little run down. There are deer in one section of the park. "

" MONAS definitely should be on the top list of everyone visiting Jakarta. Not going to Monas is like visiting Paris without going to Eiffel. Or visiting New York without going to Liberty. Or visiting KL without going to Petronas Twin Tower.
Monas is the icon of Indonesia. The obelisk, topped with Flame shaped or some say woman-shaped ( myth said that if you see Monas from Merdeka Palace, it looks like woman ) made of gold has been the landmark of Jakarta since 1975. The floor just under the flame house an observation deck, where you can see 360 degree views of Jakarta. The view from up there is breathtaking !
If you are afraid of heights, you can just walk around the park around Monas, known as Merdeka Square. The park is like an oasis in the middle of bustling Jakarta.
Best time to visit Monas is on 3 P.M onwards. If you visit Monas on 12 P.M, make sure you are all covered cause it is soooo hotttt. Or you can even try their new Night Program. The night scene from above is just another sight to behold :) "

" An iconic monument of Jakarta, and maybe Indonesia. Surrounded by many government offices. Easy to access from everywhere(near Gambir Train Station).
You could go to the peak to view Jakarta landscape from top. There are also some pictures about Indonesian history.
Because it's open space, it will be hot to visit in the afternoon. Better visit on morning or evening. The souvenir stores now are all available at South. Just be smart to bargain anythings here. "
