This is one of a path in Jakarta that I like the most. This path is a way to get into Mekarsari Garden from the parking area. Mekarsari itself is a garden where you can see many kinds of plants and flowers as well as the way to caring them. Some of the plants and flowers in this garden are so unique that can't be easily seen at other places, such as Corpse Flower.
I believe one of the reason of why this garden built in Jakarta is to let Jakarta people feel the farm atmosphere of Indonesia that almost can't be found anymore in Jakarta. So to immediately offer the farm atmosphere to the visitors even the path way in covered by plant. The name of the plant covering this path way is Passiflora Edulis (or in Indonesian Language: Markisa Rola).

Nicely captured - looks like it goes on forever! Happy Photographing!
Very beautiful.
What a lovely idea.
It is such a nicely balanced image and interesting to read what it represents.
Wow, that looks to be a long, long walkway and so beautiful. Lovely shot.
great photo for theme day. very inviting and it goes on forever. i also liked the information about the corpse flower. Too bad you could not get the flower in bloom. it sounds interesting.
I love this. Takes me to a different world. That is what is so great about the city daily photo blogs! Wonderful.
Great shot! Love the roof(?) and the symmetry on this photo.
