hey guys join us in today's video as we
discover the mrt for the first time
and we explore the beautiful gbk park
and stadium area
enjoy good morning afternoon
whatever it is for you we're on our way
to the starbucks to do some work
we also need to pick up a card for the
metro system which we didn't get
yesterday
in the marriott indomart was
out of stock so we're gonna try find an
alpha mart and see if that can help us
so that we can get the card so that we
can use the metro and go down to the gbk
[Music]
area
[Music]
we made it across that scary
intersection
all right starbucks is right yeah
thank you thank you
all right starbucks is good there's a
whole bunch of them all over jakarta
and the mall we saw like three yesterday
so
we've come to one right near our house
it's really good spot there's
barely anyone here it's good just doing
a speed test now
just to give you an idea it seems to be
on average around 20 megabit speed
it's not the fastest that's good enough
for your work
besides the starbucks there's a whole
bunch of working areas and co-working
spots in japan
so it's a really good city for that kind
of thing if you want to stop by to do
this
catch up on a bit of shopping the few
things you used to in the big city life
and your cars
has really got you covered all right we
are finished with starbucks it's time to
try
and find this card this e-money card
from indomart so
going to the second in the part now
let's see if they have it
76 000 can you put credit on
create it on the club
100 oh money on yeah
already yes okay
thank you okay
i got the card cost 76 500 rupees
it comes pre-loaded with 50 000
rupiah on it so let's walk to the train
station and see if we can get down to
gbk
[Music]
this is called google live view you just
follow this is like vr
and you just go where you need to go
[Music]
i love how they take care of their
streets it's just so clean
jakarta never comes up as one of those
places to visit like singapore
and kuala lumpur i don't know why i'm so
pleasantly surprised by this city
[Music]
this is what we're looking for wunder
and high this is the metro station
there we go
starbucks here ticketing counters to
load time on your
card here's the entrance to mrt
okay
please take your ticket ah that's easier
to go
do that than the indomart yeah so you're
only allowed one card per person i just
had to get a card from the machine
this is my one now i think it's purely
for the mrt and not the buses whereas
red
can use all modes of transport so so at
the back
so let's go through and see how this
works
[Music]
okay so to summarize you don't actually
need the card from indomart the e-money
card you can just
come down into the mrt station if that's
all you want to use
with just the mrt you just grab the card
from the little
machine at the station we put 35 000
repair
in and it gave us the card and now we
are
five stops later that's our correct
station
so overall very easy process super
impressed super clean
very good security highly highly highly
recommend using it
you do want to buy the e-money you can
get it right here i'm pretty sure
really good signage in terms of curbing
culvert 19.
i like it lots of social distancing
measures
and sanitizers everywhere
[Music]
beautiful
[Music]
oh beautiful how nice is this walkway
this is so nice and we're about to get
into the park
very very nice around here super fancy
this is a cool little baseball stadium
[Music]
yay we're inside entrance 5 is working
engine 6 is closed just look at this
wow wow jakarta
super impressive sure this park is
so beautiful it's so big and green and
there are birds trapping
everywhere they also have state of the
art sports fields and tracks
lots of people exercising too this
totally reminds us of bangkok's lupini
park
and kuala lumpur's klcc park amazing
[Music]
oh my gosh if that thing breaks
[Music]
swing swing
[Music]
okay well that escalated quickly
okay i forgot to mention earlier if you
want to know all about the trains
and the buses the whole public transport
system basically go to got alexander
once video
he covered it really well and in depth
so go check him out i'll put a link to
that in the top
corner public transport is really easy
to use because the people are so helpful
so don't be scared to ask them questions
they're really nice and they'll do
everything for you claire is very tired
so she's grabbing a bike home quickly
and i'm going to quickly walk away
that's going to be it we ending the
