Arriving by boat in Tanjung Priok, on the back of a steam tram with goods to sell at the pasar, kampung life in Kwitang, a dive into the Cikini swimming pool, with a sampan along the canals in the Chinese quarter, and a glimpse of the hustle and bustle at Pasar Ikan and Sunda Kelapa. And continuously looking at that Moët & Chandon champagne advertisement on the tram carriage. It would make one thirsty. This is not your average tour through Batavia showing white buildings, colonial monuments and tree lined streets. This is how the people of that time experienced life. The video has no sound, but please enjoy this tour and watch how the anak Betawi lived 90 years ago.
