Pasar Senen dan Dominasi Sepeda

Here Pasar Senen, Central Jakarta, is immortalized in 1900 or 109 years ago. Senen Market was built in August 1735 by Justin Vink, a senior who owns the land flooded by the VOC in Batavia. When it came to Pasar Senen at this point, what is certain is perpetuated over a century ago is now no trace at all. The shops, roads, and traffic is dominated by the time the bike has changed. Senen market as well as his twin brother Tanah Abang market is now a modern market that is open 24 hours. 

Ahead of Eid, we went to Pasar Senen which should not bother. At least, put up with traffic jams and must be prepared to jostle. See photo below, how nice it came time Pasar Senen. The casual cyclist with his vehicle push. Meanwhile, pedestrians back and forth without fear of collision. 

The shops in Pasar Senen has a typical building of the Chinese society of the home country. Because, since the massacre of the Chinese which killed thousands of people in 1740, those many who moved to Monday and Djatinegara City. Antiquity Pasar Senen still feels thick including building-bangunanya. But, at the time of Ali Sadikin become governor of Jakarta, almost all the buildings demolished and built a modern project Monday. Then, by the governor's successor, built Atrium Senen. As if competing with built Tanah Abang same time, preparing Monday as a modern shopping center in Asia. 

Unfortunately, it is no longer remaining buildings of the old days as a historical cultural heritage. Jakarta, which holds a mega city with a population of tens of million people had to be developed. But, not all destroyed and exterminated. Leave well past Pasar Senen 250-year-old, given the extent of the market's six hectares will be integrated modern trade center that also features 30 floors of apartments containing approximately 2,500 units will be standing room. Once again, reserving well past Monday as part of the historical sights are now actually developed in the modern cities of the world.
