Ragunan Zoo
This large zoo is quite easy accesible with the Busway line. Since the zoo is large in area, do rent a bike and go around cycling.
In general, the animals seemed well cared for and had large enclosures ( often bigger than in so called World class zoos I have visited) although there were a few exceptions such as the primates which hadn't made it into the new section. Overall though, I thought this was a good zoo, a great park and excellent value for money.
There was no rubbish and no people threatening the animals. There was plenty of activities, like go carts and elephant riding, and there where some small "warungs". The surrounding area of the zoo is like a tranquility since trees is all over the place, a good way to get away from big city.

Entrance price to this Zoo is ridiculously low, so low in fact many joggers simply pay the entrance fee so they run on "non-traffic congested" paths. There is plenty to see although some of the enclosures are empty. Its the only place I know where you can be photographed with a 200kg 7m python for a few dollars.
There was no raw sewage smell and the animals look well fed. There were plenty of trees for shade and the ground was clean.
The animals at Ragunan Zoo are also quite varied, from a bunch of Australian Pelicans near the entrance gate to some exotic ones like White Bengal Tigers, the endangered Sumateran Tigers, Orangutans, and cute Sumateran Elephants that would entertain you throughout your jogging spree. So, refresh yourself with a cool jogging experience in Jakarta, with some animals along the way!

Ragunan Zoo
#indonesiatrip
Worth to visit at least once if you lived in Jakarta or neighboring cities. Entries are dirt cheap, just 4k Rupiah.
Foods inside are also very affordable ranging from 10k ~ 50k.
Its a very large place to walk around, Shuttle are available for 10k/person if you choose to take it. The Zoo train is not worth it (10k) if you didn't have kids or didn't bring them, you could barely see any animals while on it, and if you do choose to take it try to avoid the 2nd carriage since the smoke from the Head Unit will choke you.
The lake is a good place to wind down and take a nice slow walk.
The primate center is a must if you visit here, although for an extra cost of 7,5k
Anything travels
Ragunan Zoo
Visited one of the most popular zoo in Jakarta, called Ragunan. It's good for family time. Many people came with kids to see the animals and do picnic. The zoo is quite big, and there are many activities we can do there.
Actually, there's another interesting part, name Schmutzer Primate Center inside the Zoo. But I haven't made it to visit to Primate Center, hope next time there's the time to visit it. There's another ticket you need to buy to access the Primate Center.

Its huge and had thousands animal specimens. Signboards a little bit confusing but we still enjoy the view. I admired that there was no raw sewage smell and the animals look well fed. There were lush trees all throughout the zoo and the ground was clean.
The entrance fee is only IDR 4,000 (0.35 cents US$) - amazingly cheap. Using JakCard, an e-money card by Bank DKI, which you can easily get at the entrance if you haven't had one.
The animals at Ragunan Zoo are also quite varied, from Pelicans, White Bengal Tigers, the endangered Sumateran Tigers, Orangutans, Sumateran Elephants, Deer,gorillas, ostrich,crocodile, gibbons, komodo dragon, etc. The bottom line is: this zoo is worth-trying.

Outdoor walk under the tree, looking to various different animal. It’s a big area to walk, you can also rent a bike, or bring your own bicycle. Try to get there early in the morning, less hot and less people doing some picnic specially on the weekend, a bit crowded with some street market inside the zoo selling hat, sun glasses etc totally unrelated. #wintergetaway
