Geocache Description:

This is a magnetic nano cache, located in the Taman Prasasti Museum in central Jakarta - a site filled with gravestones gathered from other parts of Jakarta and lots of photo opportunities.It has moved about 20m from its original position but should not be hard to spot with the clue in mind.
Correct coordinates : S 06, 10.314 E 106, 49.109

Taman Prasasti contains an interesting collection of tombstones and memorials dating as far back as 1690. When originally opened in 1797, the cemetry occupied 5 hectares. The cemetry was eventually closed in 1976 as a result of development pressures in Jakarta, and re-opened as a smaller memorial park as it stands today.

Many memorials are here including governors general of Batavia, merchants and community leaders. Look out for the memorial for Olivia, Raffles' wife too.

One of the few places in Indonesia to see such artistry in sculptures of angels - a real photographer's paradise.
