Golden Triangle of Jakarta

Golden Triangle of Jakarta (Indonesian: Segitiga Emas Jakarta) is roughly a triangular shape area of Jakarta, Indonesia, which extends from Central Jakarta to South Jakarta. Most of the business, financial, and diplomatic establishments are located in the area, which also forms the center of the city. The area is the main CBD of Jakarta, where most of the tallest skyscrapers are located. The area is bordered by main avenues of Jakarta, Jalan M.H. Thamrin-Jalan Jenderal Sudirman (North-Southwest), Jalan H.R. Rasuna Said (North-Southeast), and Jalan Jenderal Gatot Subroto (East-West). There are many other roads criss-crossing the area. There are at least 3 main centers of commercial buildings such as SCBD (45 hectares), Mega Kuningan (54 hectares) and Kuningan Persada (17 hectares). The area is one of the fastest evolving CBD in Asia-Pacific region.

During the period between 1960-1965 Jakarta's urban development changed drastically when President Sukarno, also an architect and an urban planner, personally drove the city into a modern capital that would not only be the pride of the Indonesian nation, but would also be a "beacon" of a powerful new nation. Development axis of Jakarta was shifted towards south direction starting from Medan Merdeka to Kebayoran as the center of Jakarta in the 1950's, replacing that of Medan Merdeka-Senen-Salemba-Jatinegara axis which has grown since the 18th century.
