Location on  Jl. Garden House, RT.8/RW.1, Kamal Muara, Penjaringan, Kota Jakarta Utara, Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta 14470,  we are greeted with the gate of Taman Wisata Angke Kapuk. The uniformed green doorman with a smiling face served us. We bought an entrance ticket for Rp 25,000 per person. This ticket must be kept not to be lost because inside will be checked again.

From the gate, we walked into about 200 meters and met the checkpoint.
