Jakarta is effortless for Muslim travellers — Indonesia is the world's most populous Muslim-majority country, so halal food is the default, mosques and musalla are everywhere (including the vast Istiqlal Mosque), and prayer times structure the day. Traffic is heavy, so plan around the MRT, commuter rail and ride-hailing (Gojek and Grab).
