2. Visit nature tourism
Yup, instead of just going to the mall, there's no harm in occasionally enjoying nature tourism, right? Make no mistake, because in Jakarta there are still natural attractions that you can enjoy without having to go all the way out of town, you know.
3. Visit a relative's house
For example, this long weekend in September on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, you can take advantage of this moment to visit a relative's house while strengthening ties. Especially if this Eid al-Adha there are relatives from out of town or even abroad who are returning to their homeland. Of course, Hari Raya moments will be even more exciting by gathering with family.

5. Visit the Library
It's definitely for you, book lovers! Reading books in the library doesn't mean you're a bookworm. Because in the library you can find books that are no longer published on the market or listen to audiobooks in a place with a calm and comfortable atmosphere.
You can also take advantage of free internet facilities which are usually provided in public libraries. Have a fun staycation, Jakartans!
