The Old Ciliwung Floodgates, also known as "Bendungan Ciliwung Kuno" in Indonesian, is a historical landmark located in Jakarta, Indonesia. These floodgates were constructed during the Dutch colonial era to regulate the flow of the Ciliwung River, which runs through the city. The gates were built to prevent flooding in the surrounding areas during periods of heavy rainfall or high tide. Today, the Old Ciliwung Floodgates stand as a reminder of Jakarta's colonial past and its ongoing struggle with flood management. While the floodgates are no longer in use, they serve as a symbol of the city's efforts to adapt to its geographical challenges and protect its residents from natural disasters.
