Tourism

At @america

Tourism is travel for recreational, leisure or business purposes. The World Tourism Organization defines tourists as people "traveling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes.

This is the result of our observation about a recreation place in Jakarta. Our group visit a place where you can enjoy while learn something new, exactly about American Culture.

Guys, to be able to learn a foreign culture, we usually go to visit the Embassy of the foreign countries in Jakarta. But the embassy building designs that tend to have high walls, sturdy, and coupled with the level of security in layers. Creating atmosphere embassy so stiff and uncomfortable. Certainly less attractive to be a place in the study of foreign culture

Well, maybe not many people know that now the U.S. Embassy Cultural Center has a place in a mall (Pacific Place) in Sudirman. Far from being rigid because it is in the mall. Instead this place is designed so friendly and also has a versatile Hi-Tech, even as the first high-technology Cultural Center of America in the worlds.

It is located in Pacific Place Mall Level 3, unit 325 Jendral Sudirman Street Kav 52-53. Conveniently located in the heart of Sudirman Central Business District.
