Photograph at the Monas Monument

Monumen Nasional (abbreviated Monas) is a Transjakarta bus rapid transit station located on Medan Merdeka Barat Street, Gambir, Gambir, Central Jakarta, Indonesia. The station serves Corridor 1 and is the downtown terminus of Corridor 2 and Corridor 3. It is adjacent the National Monument to the east (hence the name in Indonesian) and the National Museum of Indonesia to the west. However, the station is far from the entrance to that iconic monument, and passengers are instead advised to alight at Balai Kota or Gambir 2 station to access the monument complex's entrance. Monas BRT station currently serves as one of the central stations in the BRT system temporarily since 4 March 2023. The one of its kind nearby, Harmoni, is operating with low capacity temporary buildings due to the Jakarta MRT construction. Therefore, several routes are currently temporarily rerouted, including corridors 2 and 3, encouraged an expansion to accommodate climbing passenger volume.
