Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Walking from hotel to airport rail link airport BNI. Enjoying morning traffic, good hot weather 🌦️ and first time discovering modern Jakarta city center. Passing monument, taking some pictures and continue. Welcoming character of bronze statue to make Jakarta nicer

The monument itself is nothing special but it is located in an excellent position, namely in the center of a large fountain placed on a roundabout which is a main hub of Jakarta's business district. The entire surrounding area is beautiful, made up of large hotels, high-end shopping centers and glittering skyscrapers. This area is very well looked after and highly frequented. Traffic is inevitable but I didn't find it as congested as you might think.

It’s a nice monument and the surrounding tall buildings are also impressive. During the day it’s a very busy junction with traffic but thanks to the traffic lights there are enough breaks to allow you to see the monument properly and give some photo opportunities. There’s plenty of other things to make a walk to the area worthwhile, such as the shopping malls, but I also found it entertaining observing the adjacent police station which was a hive of activity.
It’s a welcoming area and doesn’t feel too touristy, so well worth taking the time to pass through.

Just stood in the middle of main road in Jakarta it is not common to be around during a day time because the traffic and police wouldn't let you to be close by otherwise you could take a picture from pedestrian area almost 10 - 20 meters away from the icon. Beautiful at night and also during a sunset just right to the icon

It is worth coming here for the views especially on Haite Burndaran Hl Astra viewpoint which you will need a Flazz card or Transjakarta card to go through security to get to the viewpoint.

Selamat Datang means welcome. The Selamat Datang Monument is located in the center of a roundabout. It is recommended to visit at night due to beautiful view

We finally (literally) walk by foot to this landmark. The famous fountain and monument that become one of Jakarta's landmark.
The place is within walking distance from Bundaran HI MRT station. That is where we came from. Lots of street hawkers that sells snacks and drinks, many pedestrians too enjoying the attraction.
The road itself considered as very busy road, many cars not to mention heavy traffic most of the time. And what not to be forget is also the air pollution. Maybe it'll be better if we visit the monument on Sunday during car free day so less air pollution that is.

This monument is certainly impressive, but what it is not is accessible! Due to the sheer quantity of traffic circling the monument (or is at a key junction) it is impossible to get up close to it.

Stayed in a hotel close by, and thus had a view of the monument and the roundabout it occupies .The monument is surrounded by a fountain and the traffic swirling around the roundabout mirrors the Arc De Triomphe in Paris for automobiles.Add the proximity of several major hotels, and two large shopping malls ,and you get a lot of people added to the picture.
The best time to see it is Sunday mornings when , as cars are banned,apart from the local Transjakarta buses, the roads become one gigantic pedestrian walkway and the kerbs become filled with stalls cooking food and selling all kind of objects .
