sunset from Pantai Carnaval, Ancol |
Yesterday, my mom was bored for staying home for more than 4 days. She then asked me to go out somewhere. We were about to go to Sentul but my aunt said she was already going home from there. So we went to Mall Alam Sutera because I had never been there, but on our way we thought about going to Ancol, and asked the family if anyone wanted to join.

Shortly we arrived at Ancol: mom, me and Oma. It was on the moment of sunset, so we parked at the new mall, Ancol Beach City Mall. Not long after, Aunt Lena, Oom Kus and Angelika joined us. We chilled at one of the tables outdoor, watching the dusk sky in the west and taking photograph of it on the beach and deck pier.
The mall is not so new, but nobody knows about its existence. Not so much fun inside of the building, but the open space is really nice to hang out. It has parts for dining, for relaxing in gazebos, picnic on sand, a bicycle lane, a pier and a live music stage. All of them facing west, perfect for watching sunset. If you like an urban touch on the beach, this mall is a nice place to sit down and chill.
After that we visited Pasar Seni (Art Market) that apparently still open till 11 p.m. There are many painters in various style exhibiting their artwork for sale in small huts in the complex area. It is fun to see the paintings, and I caught few that I liked. Too bad it started to rain so we hurried to go home. The next time I'm going there, I'll try the Gondola for sure!
PS.
