Reviewed by: CameronL from on Mar 09 2006 the museum of elephant national museum or museum gajah (the elephant museum),as the jakartans dub it because there's a white elephant statue -a gift from a Thai king/prince- in front of the building, is one of the few museums in Jakarta that are easy to access. located in the center of the city and close to monas, it's a perfect place for tourists or even curious citizens to take a historical journey. it also hosts big events, like art exhibitions. the last one i saw was the tribe art/julian opie exhibition.
Reviewed by: Dian from on May 06 2005 Worth a look The National Museum has a fine collection of statues and cultural artifacts. Also make sure you check out the collection of gold items in the treasure room upstairs,
