Slightly taller than 6 meters in height, the statue of General Sudirman, one of Indonesia's most respected and revered military leaders during the freedom struggle, is seen standing in salute to the countless cars that pass him by. Located on a street named after him as well in the heart of the city, Sudirman's statue on Jalan Sudirman stands testament to the ever-lasting legacy that he has left on the country and is a tribute to his invaluable sacrifice towards Indonesia's independence movement.
Situated in the heart of Jakarta's commercial district, the statue is within close proximity to many other attractions in central Jakarta, with Menteng Park and Lake Lembang Market are both less than 2km away. Sudirman's larger-than-life presence can be felt throughout Indonesia, with most cities having at least one street named after the general.
