Being a thick concrete jungle as it is, it’s probably a little hard to believe that golf is one of the many fast-growing sports in Jakarta. Before rejecting the claim, bear in mind that the city is a business destination, meaning many meetings and discussions occur on the green manicured grass instead of in board rooms. Golf does indeed offer a chance for the overworked to relax, enjoy the view, and work the muscles once in a while. Here are some of the best golf courses in Jakarta and the surrounding area.
