It’s a great and very informative museum particularly for Indonesian. There’re old-fashioned steam locomotives, historical carriages, et cetera and of course McDonnell Douglas DC-9-32 serial 47790 / 907 from Garuda Indonesia Airlines.

Overall, the collections of this museum is great. Complete and in good condition.

In front left, there’s an ex-Garuda Indonesia DC-9 PK-GNT plane that used to serve ASEAN countries and Australia.

If walking to the left through the railway, there would be a landmark “Kemijen”, name of a village in Semarang where the first railway station in Indonesia was built.

Ceremonial in the village took place on Friday, June 17th, 1864 with the ground-breaking rail road works by Governor General of the Dutch East Indies, LAJ Sloet Baron van den Beele.

In front of middle building there’s ZM Willem III Lighthouse made in 1879 from steel. Its electric motors were three passes with a 1000-watt bulb that could be seen from 20 nautical miles.

In the outdoor display of TMII Transportation Museum there’s original Steam Locomotive type-10437, wood-fueled, which could only reach a maximum speed of 10 km/h.

The locomotive mady by Henschel & Sohn Cassel West Germany in 1911 was used in Cirebon Gempol Sugar Factory in 1912 – 1995. There’s also the first double-Decker bus in Indonesia called The Tall Red, a British Leyland brand with a length of 9.5 m, width 2.5 m, height 4.45 m, served Blom M – Salemba – Senen. On its left was the city bus DAMRI.

Traditional boat named “Jayapura I” was displayed in the outdoor area of Jakarta TMII Transportation Museum. The boat is found in the North coast of Jayapura district. The Boat, weighing 2 tons typical of Wariy Tribe, was created in Kampung Ambore in June-July 1995 using Goro Wood for the boat body and Forest Wood Pinang for the above-hull boat.

Further to the left on the outside area of the Jakarta TMII Transportation Museum there’s Traffic Park. Behind it there were collections of locomotives and railway carriages.

There were also a train tunnel and Extraordinary Coach used by President Sukarno and Vice President Mohammad Hatta when the Indonesian government was moved to Yogyakarta.

Although most of the Jakarta TMII Transportation Museum collection were made by foreign countries, but still I was struck with so many transportation-related objects stored in the museum, which were mostly originals and in good conditions.

I think you will also be fascinated with the collection when visiting the museum someday.

On December 2015 my family and i went to palembang with private car, we left house at 07.00 am and we arrived in the next day at 05.00, i felt so tired when the way to go there because is such a long distance.

And when i arrived at my uncle's place i directly slept untill 11.00 am. after i woke up, i took a bath and my cousin asked me to go to Kemaro Island, she said Kemaro Island is a beautifull place..

And then we arrived, and here's the picture of me and my sister.

Kemaro Island has a Love Tree, a lot of people wrote their names with their couple, but i didn't write my name on it HEHE

For go to the Kemaro Island my family and i rent a boat. and here's a picture
