About this audio guide
This guide to Allianz Ecopark in Jakarta's Ancol district starts with a bundle of spinach and a herd of spotted deer that arrived in twenty ten. It reaches back to the years when this stretch of North Jakarta was scrubland, and to the beliefs that grew up around the animals living in it. Along the way you'll hear about a haunted bridge and the small precautions drivers once took to cross it. Best heard at the deer fence, with the leaves in your hand.
