Menteng Park, Public garden in Central Jakarta City, Indonesia.
Menteng Park is a public garden in Central Jakarta with paved walkways, sports courts, and children's play areas distributed throughout the grounds. The space includes futsal and basketball courts along with a jogging track for various activities.
The park was built in 2006 and replaced the former Menteng Stadium, which had functioned as a sports venue since 1921. This transformation marked a shift in the site's use from a dedicated sports facility to a multipurpose recreational space for the community.
The park serves as a meeting place for neighborhood celebrations and local gatherings where people come together throughout the year. The open spaces and walkways are filled daily with families and groups enjoying time together in this shared community setting.
The park is open and accessible to all visitors throughout the day with free access to all facilities and areas. The pathways are well-maintained and easy to navigate through the different sections, making it convenient for people with varying mobility needs.
The grounds feature 44 absorption wells integrated into the design to manage rainwater and protect local groundwater reserves. This thoughtful system works quietly in the background, allowing the park to operate in an environmentally conscious way.
