Jakarta-architecture at a quick-pace

Driving through Jakarta on work days could be a nightmare, luckily it went smoothly for us that particular morning. Well, it's a smooth-ride for Jakarta standard of traffic flow which notably known for its horrific traffic congestion, so don't get to impressed of it. tsk tsk!  These photos might be just a few of interesting architecture landmark that I could snap on the go. Perhaps I would need another shot touring Jakarta on its own just to have a feel of how living in a heavy populated city feels like and experience its architecture.
