Indonesia: city districts and the highlands of Bali

Indonesia comes into focus through very different island settings. Jakarta’s Thamrin district belongs to the urban landscape of Java, while Munduk is a village in Bali’s mountainous interior. earthTV’s perspectives on Indonesia connect these places through their particular geography, offering room for an interest in city life, highland settlements or the terrain around them.

Exploring Indonesia through Java and Bali

Jakarta occupies a coastal setting on north-western Java. The Thamrin district gives the city a specific urban focus, with an interest in the streets and buildings of a major commercial centre. Beginning with one district makes the scale of Jakarta more approachable and creates a place from which to understand its wider layout.

Munduk introduces another kind of settlement. The village sits in Bali’s highlands, where mountains, vegetation and nearby waterfalls shape the landscape. Lake Tamblingan adds a further geographical reference in the surrounding area. These features belong to the wider destination and offer different directions for exploration.

Java and Bali each provide their own context for understanding Indonesia. A city district and a highland village invite different questions about place, from urban form to the relationship between settlement and terrain. Let the detail that interests you become the beginning of a more personal connection with the country.
