Old Town of Jakarta
The Old Town of Jakarta was founded in the 17th century by the Dutch East India Company. Then called Batavia, the town had the largest volume of trade in Asia. A mix of Western culture, Chinese culture, Indian culture and Middle Eastern culture contributed to the Indonesian culture. The remaining structures include houses, warehouses, shipyards and forts from the 17th and 18th centuries. The proposal also includes four Outlying Islands (Onrust, Kelor, Cipir dan Bidadari) in the Bay of Jakarta.
