Local Guides contributions spotlight: Indonesia

[BorrisS]

Local Guides add immense value to Google Maps every day. Our series, Local Guides contributions spotlight, aims to bring you high-quality reviews and photos shared by Local Guides like you on the map. Each month, we focus on a new country to celebrate the diversity of our community. If you wish to see your or another Local Guide’s contributions featured here, make sure to share them with us using our nomination form.

This month, we visit Indonesia.

@DeniGu: What we love about Local Guide @putrisetyo’s photo inside Ayam Bakar Pak D - Cemengkalang is the perspective and lighting. She chose an angle that shows how bright, colorful, and spacious the area for customers is at this food stall in Sidoarjo, East Java. The tables are well spaced out and have stickers telling people where to sit for a safe distance. These details assure visitors that Ayam Bakar Pak D complies with local health regulations. The decorations and clean surfaces also make this a pleasant space to have a bite or wait for your takeout. 

Next time you visit a small local restaurant, consider a wider angle for your photo and enough natural light!

@BorrisS: Local Guide @indahnuria describes herself as “a big fan of traditional markets.” So it’s not surprising that her review of the Pasar Rawamangun market in East Jakarta is packed with helpful information. She starts by mentioning some of the available products—from fresh produce to recycled items, clothes, and medicine, that market seems to have it all! Indah also comments on the prices and notes that you can negotiate them, which is great if you’re on a budget. We learn about the COVID-19 measures in place and the accessibility of the market, too. Indah’s review is an example of being helpful on Google Maps, and that’s what she got nominated for! 

You can read the full review here.

Awww. My dear Indah @indahnuria @BorrisS even at Meetups, Indah is so fascinating. She takes her time to ensure she is giving useful tips that will really help, an Avid Traveller herself, she ensures you get immersed in the experience she has had.

Have you read her accounts of her trip to the Northern lights? The Aurora Borealis?

Indah is pure delight
