Braga’s Timeless Allure

Picture this: Wandering between Jalan Braga and Jalan Asia Afrika, your eyes catch the impressive Warenhuis De Vries. Originally a general store owned by a Dutchman named ‘de Vries,’ this building has witnessed the city’s evolution. From a department store to a restaurant and, briefly, an uninhabited space, it was resurrected as a bank in 2011. Despite the transformations, the original architectural charm remains intact, making it a prime instagenic spot in the Braga district.

2. Merdeka Building

Built in 1895, the historic Merdeka Building started as a coffee shop. Not just any coffee shop, though—it was the hub for Dutch socialites of the Societeit Concordia. The opulent European-style architecture, complete with dance halls and marble-floored bars, has made it a hotspot for both tourists and millennials alike.
