What people say

"Given the popularity of this attraction, don't be surprised if you'll have to wait in line to get in! The system may look a little disorganised at first but fret not, sometimes a crowd bunches up at the entrance as they let people into the underground tunnel (that takes you to the ticket counter) in batches for crowd control.
Wander around the basement to view the exhibits that trace the founding of Indonesia, before heading to the second floor where you can catch a reading of the proclamation of Indonesia's independence by the first Indonesian President Sukarno.
If you're lucky enough to snag tickets, head all the way up to the top of Monas for a view of this sprawling metropolis ๐๏ธ"
