Pasar Senen: The Oldest Market in Jakarta
Pasar Senen is the oldest market in Jakarta. I was built by the Dutch in 1735 along with other commerce center, Tanah Abang. Initially Pasar Senen was called Pasar Snees because it opened only on Monday. Since 1766 though the market opens everyday. Pasar Senen was also known as Vinck Passer in he past.
I had no chance to visit the market before it was destroyed in a fire incident but it wasn´t too bad I could still explore the kitchen ware section of the market. It took my breath away.
