A 913-square-meter empty land in front of Kembangan Selatan Urban Village office, Kembangan, West Jakarta was transformed into a beautiful, neat, and instagramable park.
Kembangan Selatan Urban Village Head, Pradana Putera said the land is an asset belonging to the Jakarta Parks and Forestry Agency, originally not cared for and used as a vehicle parking lot. It was made into a park through three pillars by carrying out the Green Jakarta concept.
