Origin of name Tanah Abang is not known exactly, but it is estimated, the name of the area was taken from a hill of red soil. Hill is surrounded by wetlands located in the vicinity of the Kali Krukut.

In addition to Tanah Abang Market, in the time it is standing Senen Market, which operates every Monday. Commodities trading is determined at the time of the Netherlands.

Learning to practice BATIK MAKING at Textile Museum
0 comments Posted by -deniya a.ka Siti Daniati- at 1:44:00 AM
The former residence of a French citizen now houses the Textile Museum, with its large front yard and its shady trees in stark contrast to the hectic life on the street.
The spacious and quiet room of the museum displays a wide variety of cloths from different parts of Indonesia, each labeled with information on their origins, types of material, production processes and purposes of use. A visitor will get to know, for example, that South Sumatra's capital city of Palembang also has its own batiks, while men in the interior regions of Kalimantan wear clothes made of refined bark as smooth as textiles.
When The Jakarta Post recently visited the museum, a batik making course was announced near the back of the museum.
After passing a large garden, visitors reached a fairly big hall. It's actually a garden of various plants used as natural coloring dyes. Young teak leaves, for instance, can be used to paint cloth maroon.
Some people were seen taking a batik course in the hall, drawing patterns on fabrics and waxing the motifs already drafted.
For beginners, the cost is Rp35,000 per person, including the cloth for patterning, wax and colorings. Participants run the gamut from housewives and teenagers to working professionals and retirees.
Those who are not so good at drawing need not worry, as different samples of motifs are available for copying onto fabrics before being hot-waxed by using a canting, or spouted copper vessel.
All the participants seriously applied wax on their drawings, with occasional whines as the hot wax dropped on their hands or went on the wrong lines.
According to Yeni, the course's part-time batik teacher and an Indonesian Arts Institute graduate, many people did not understand the waxing process is to prevent colors from mixing together.
"If a batik cloth is composed of various colors, dyeing and waxing of colored parts are usually done several times," she said.
After the dyeing process is completed, the wax is removed by boiling the cloth and then the hand-made batik is sun-dried.
Many of the participants had long known about the course before signing up.
"I could attend the course only this time," said Jeanette, who with her friend Paulina visited the museum from Pluit, North Jakarta, especially to learn batik making. "I really want to be able make a batik piece by hand."
Yeni said apart from adults, a lot of students interested in batik would come in study-tour groups organized by their schools.
"Though students sometimes get burned by the wax, they're happy to be able to make batik handkerchiefs to be taken home. They usually get simple motifs and only need to dye the pieces only once."
The course is also good to help children learn to concentrate. "This is particularly for autistic children," said Yeni, who has several times conducted art therapy for children with autism.
She said that although there are standard batik making norms, participants are free to draw whatever they like on their works.
"Some have even drawn bells and snowmen amid Solo's traditional batik motifs."
An advanced course is also available, costing Rp200,000 to make big-sized fabrics for scarves, tablecloths or sarongs. The motifs for this level are more complicated and require a longer time to complete.
"Many employees come here on Saturdays and Sundays to finish their batik as the process is longer, which is not the case for beginners," added Yeni.

well,it still called as Pasar Baru (New Market) even the age of this market already reached hundred years :) This market are famous with clothes seller and mostly chinese people traders.
Success "Passer Baroe" has been known in the Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie (VOC) first.
Regional "Passer Baroe" I not only known as the local elite because it is not far from the area of Rijswijk (Veterans Road), which was built COMPANY Dutch government to the people rich in Batavia. Yes, this is similar Menteng or Pondok Indah.
Markets in the region is also known a number of shoemaker in the first Batavia. One of the very famous called Sapie Ie. Male descendants of China by officials COMPANY Netherlands improve even be trusted to make shoes with the right level. Yes soldiers shoes, shoes for the purpose of the party. However Sapie Ie more trusted to make the party shoes. Questions fee, the officer COMPANY Netherlands is not a headache. The most important quality is guaranteed!
In the book titled "Indrukken van een Totok, Indische en schetsen type", described in explicit role shoemaker Sapie Ie in the region "Passer Baroe." Justus van Maurik, author of the book, telling how he was forced to deal with Sapie Ie only because they have put the right shoe for the invitation to meet a ball in the Harmonie building. "I am shocked when you receive an invitation to attend the ball from the Governor-General van der Wijck," Justus van Maurik write in the book. In the invitation, which was delivered directly Governor General van der Wijck mentioned that the ball is done on Saturday, August 2 at exactly 21:00 pm. Justus prepared themselves.
He began to prepare the best clothes only to respect the letter of invitation of the Governor-General van der Wijck. Pants, vest and black coat has been prepared. Unfortunately, however, held out the shoes do not fit for a ball, let alone held the Governor-General van der Wijck. By his friends because he disindir out shoes that period. "Time you would like to attend a party with dancing shoes butut it?" sindir colleagues Justus.
On the insistence of one of his friends have settled first in the city of Batavia, Justus recommended to order shoes to the shoemaker weekend Sapie Ie in the "Passer Baroe." With friendly Sapie Ie receive shoes Justus weekend. Because of his feet rather then Sapie Ie request additional fee of 50 cents.
Unique, ordering shoes from Sapie Ie, the buyer can wait. While waiting for shoes ordered completed, Justus van Maurik roads around the region first Rijswijk (now Veterans Road). The old, but is important for Justus can participate ball. In the final hours count shoes right order is completed. Unfortunately, when it tried a little narrow. But the train invitation to attend the party is in front of the eyes, then with a little pain Justus van Maurik forget the pain that his feet.
After the release party Justus Sounds that he had. Once opened there in the bill debt. In the end shoes are left SOOOO charges that the bill is folded neatly. Yes, it may be because when Sapie Ie the shoemaker reluctant to charge the lack of payment so that the shoes he put the bill on the bill in the shoes. RADIO due to the foot of Justus van Maurik swelling. Keesokkan day he Sapie Ie come to shop and pay the bill of making shoes that weekend.
Ciliwung River, which is in "Passer Baroe" often used to race boats. People call this time Passer Baroe time. Now, the city of Batavia in the first place in the same boat racing is also held to compete bamboo leaf, tied with a handkerchief, sorrow and even small sebungkus opium worth 32 cents.
Boat race in the Ciliwung done in the framework of the party Cun Also, a celebration of ethnic Chinese in the city of Batavia. During the first Batavia, the region is also known as a center of trade or market. There, many living people who do not like Chinese settle in the area of Glodok Chinatown. Some of them choose to open shops in the "Passer Baroe."
Also Cun tradition of the party held on 5 months 5 dismantlement China, traders in the market that while business and forget the troop gathered along the Ciliwung to organize Also Cun. Dozens of boats decorated in which there is a mask decorated with dragon heads at the time boast "Passer Baroe it. All the people over there (not just ethnic Chinese) but also the population at around the time. Resounding cheer in there, especially as the boats race to get the bamboo leaf, tied with a handkerchief. And also to be put sebungkus small opium worth 32 cents. Ethnic Chinese have long been known avidly opium. Therefore, I wonder if the city of Batavia in the first, the Dutch government COMPANY fix the opium tax for houses opium.
And as the oldest shopping center in the capital city of Jakarta. New markets have the agenda of the annual â € "every anniversary Jakarta, June 22, â €" New Market nimbrung participate in a package called "Festival Passer Baroe." Unfortunately, "Passer Baroe" â € "so I called the people, now known as New Market â €" slowly appear began losing overtake menjamurnya modern shopping centers and malls such as Plaza to accommodate the greed spending residents of Jakarta.
Conscious that the New Market is now the starting left, then issued a discourse to make the shopping area known as the year 1070-it's become a place for the spacer, spacer, such as Cilandak Town Square (Citos) in the south of Jakarta.
Let's flow the mind,dive the imagination,go through the historical moment of Jakarta by this nice video (thanks to Asepgunawan84)...I'm proud to be one of pure Jakarta citizen :)
Everybody knows about China's Great Wall or Malaysia's Twin Tower,then what about Indonesia ?? How many people realize that Indonesia also got their historical building symbol which definitely become their pride...Here we are,MONAS
and this is short history belongs to it according to Wikipedia...
The Monumen Nasional (or Tugu Monas, the National Monument tower) is a 450 ft (137 m) tall tower in Central Jakarta, symbolizing the fight for Indonesia's independence. Construction began in 1961 under Sukarno and was not finished until 1975 under Suharto. It is topped by a 14.5 ton bronze flame, which is plated in 35 kg (1,125 troy ounces) of gold.
Visitors can take an elevator up to a platform with a view of Medan Merdeka Park, Istiqlal Mosque, and the city. Inside the base of the monument is an exhibition on the country's Declaration of Independence and several dioramas showing the history of Indonesia.
Monument design
The design of the monument is meant to combine elements of masculine and feminine. The design based on Lingga-Yoni, the symbol of fertility in ancient Hindu-Javanese belief. The phallic shaft comes toward the ground and is engulfed by square base meant to symbolize fertility. The monument body was made of steel and concrete covered with Italian white marble. On the top of the tower there's a square terrace that can be reach by visitors by elevator. From here visitors can see an aerial view of Jakarta. The monument is crowned by gold-coated flame, right on the top of the peak terrace. This golden flame is intended to symbolize the spirit of freedom and the struggle for independence of Indonesian people.

As standing at the front door, its effects are very creepy. Just imagine, the room is a half circle-shaped, dark, stinking, and is located at the bottom of the building is 300 years old, built 1,707 years. All the walls are made of concrete walls and only in the front there is a small window with iron grating, which is very sturdy. Eeriness lunge from the old building when we see tens iron ball the same size volleyball. Is weighing about 100 kilograms, so it is very difficult encouraged to move from the place. Ball-iron ball that tied the legs of the VOC detainees in the first period.
In addition to the iron ball feet tied, the detainees are caged in the room stuffy, dark and without air ventilation. Number of tahanannya not half-hearted, can be around 80 people in a stuffy room about the size of eight meters wide and three meters.
Stuffy room, there are five such units and is still intact, and can be seen up to now at the bottom of the building Fatahillah Museum or Museum of History of Jakarta. Of course, is no longer used as a prison, but only for the spectacle of the museum, visitors, students, and families who are traveling.
However, through the underground prison, the Government can show cruelty of Dutch colonial past. Moreover, according to historical evidence, not only hijacker, robber, who had escaped or inhabit the grim prison, but former Governor General of the Netherlands in Sri Lanka, Peter Vuyst, had also disekap in the stuffy room. The reasons are not as rebellious, but because of a contagious madness.
However, a more unkind again, after Chinese uprising in Batavia year 1740, about 500 people in China disekap room is narrow. Every day the prisoners are emaciated that it be given rice and liquid fresh water. Then, one by one Chinese person was issued and executed by hanging in front of the plaza Building Museum of History of Jakarta now.
I wonder if the book Oud Batavia, Dr M De Haan mention the stuffy room as a dark alley (donker gat). Even her writing, Wie op kippevel gesteld is, moet hier zijn ( "Who wants to merinding, should come here ...")
***
NOT only a grim-grim, there are at the Jakarta Museum of History. Building a former Stadhuis (City Hall) of Batavia, many save enchantment.
In terms of physical buildings have extraordinary endurance. I imagine, the building is laying the first stone is done by 25 January 1707 Petronella Wilhelmina van Hoorn (8) and daughter of the Governor General of the Dutch East Indies when the van Hoorn. Means that the building was almost 300 years, and still intact until now. Wood-wood is not obsolete, especially wall betonnya still firmly until the present.
The front door, still appeared to keangkuhannya. Made of teak wood about 10 centimeters thick, high and more than three meters. Be painted red light, the door seems solid and dignified.
Meanwhile, when entering the building in part, appears simple but elegant. Only a rung to the second floor of luxury impressed. Sidestep these be painted red and decorated with carved lion at the bottom.
In the bottom of the building, saved dozens of valuable collections. Start from a stone-rocky period and the heritage of the Kingdom of neolitikum Purnawarman, up to silver and weight of goods Portuguese era.
At the top of the building, saved tens collection goods furniture. Teak chairs are hundreds of years, the time of the Dutch table meetings, filing cabinet VOC era, the giant beds, chairs to relax and all available ancient mirror. Even painting the wood justice Sulaeman King (Solomon) are well maintained.
"In addition to the collection on display, there are other goods such as the ancient scales that have not been exhibited because of limited space," said Anne Handojosoemarto Ny, one of the translators of ancient script, the script in the Jakarta Museum of History.
Unfortunately, beautiful decoration at the top of the roof in front of the tower building the museum, a statue of Goddess or Goddess Justice Yustitia now gone. Even women with a statue blindfold right hand while holding the sword and left hand holding the weight, it is the favorite.
***
Jakarta History Museum managers, the seminar last week to know the background of history, architecture, spatial structure and function of the building since the days of VOC, the Dutch East Indies government, the occupation of Japan to the Republic.
"In fact, many new things are revealed in this seminar," said Tinia Budiati, Director of Singapore History Museum.
During the VOC, for example, out of this building regulations, a Chinese trader. Chinese traders to become object VOC extortion by the head tax imposed. Understandably, when the population of China is considerable amount in Batavia, namely, the year 1619 about 300 people a year and then increased to 800 the year 1621 and 2,100 people become inflated.
In the Dutch East Indies government, the building was named Stadhuis (Balaikota) is also a place that is quite respected. Balaikota building is also equipped prison for the hijacker, escaped, and the military disersi.
Around the year 1743, when the network was built in Batavia, water pipes leiding (drinking water), created in the front of the fountain that can be the first fountain in Batavia. Because it is not surprising in the afternoon, the water fountain is always a public spectacle. Unfortunately, the fountain broke and now there is no more. In fact, the damage to the water fountain is more than the first loss Goddess Statue of Justice.
Soon, what he knows part of the damaged building which used to be headquarters Kodim Jakarta Center. Understandably, hands and dry now often make use scratch-graffiti spray paint on the walls around Stadhuis the building has become the Jakarta Museum of History.
