BATAVIA
Batavia, the residence of the Government of Netherlands-India and the capital of the "provincie" West-Javá, is situated in 106° 48′ E. longitude and 6° 7′ S. latitude. The old city is built in the ancient Dutch style and was till the beginning of the 19th century surrounded by fortifications, which have since been demolished. It has always been unhealthy. In 1699 the unfavourable conditions were greatly increased by an eruption of Mount Salak, masses of mud and sand being washed up by the river Tjiliwong, so that drainage became, very difficult. On account of this unhealthy condition only very few Europeans remain day and night in the old city. The fine large houses are employed for offices and godowns, and in the afternoon, when business is finished, most of the Europeans retire to the new town, which is situated south of the old city and built in modern style. Broad roads and spacious squares and nice bungalows surrounded by gardens form there a desirable place. It was, Marshall Daendels who, in the first years of last century, began to build the new town with the construction of barracks and the palace that was designed to be the residence of the Governor-General, but has never been used as such. It is now utilised for Government The palace is situated on the eastside of the Waterloo Square, where are
offices.
