About this audio guide
This guide to Ancol Taman Impian in Jakarta steps away from the rides to Pasar Seni, the Art Market tucked inside the park, and to the developer Ciputra who started it in the nineteen seventies. It follows his unusual bargain with painters, the governor who laid its stones, and the masters of Indonesian painting said to have gathered there. Best heard walking among the open studio fronts.
