The district (
kecamatan) of Kebayoran Baru was originally developed as a standalone
planned satellite city of
Batavia (now
Jakarta) after
World War II, carrying the principles of "
garden city" onto its design. Thus, the planned city design has included many urban parks and other green spaces, including three separated yet adjacent parks in block C near Kyai Maja street, a site that what is now lies within the Kramat Pela subdistrict (
kelurahan). These three parks were later known as
Ayodya,
Langsat and
Leuser parks, divided by the Barito and Kyai Maja streets to the east and north. To the east of Langsat Park, there is Barito Street, where there used to be a row of kiosks for
ornamental bird traders outside the compound, which had already existed since the 1970s. Ayodya Park, formerly named Barito Park, was partially used for ornamental animal and flower kiosks that covered its frontage. These kiosks were inaugurated by then
Jakarta Governor Ali Sadikin in 1970 and were collectively known as the "Barito Market" (
Pasar Barito). In January 2008, the Jakarta Provincial Government under
Fauzi Bowo ordered the demolition of about 150 kiosks of the Barito Market, in order to restore Barito Park as an open green space. It drew clashes during the process. The traders were relocated to the nearby markets, but some of them were given new kiosks along the eastern border of the Langsat Park at Barito street. In July 2025, Governor
Pramono Anung envisioned an "
ASEAN Park" near the commercial square of
Blok M; it was revealed that the vision is in a form of the revitalization and merger of Ayodya, Langsat and Leuser parks. However, the plan name was changed to "Taman Bendera Pusaka" ('Heirloom Flag Park'). Because of this, the ornamental bird kiosks along the eastern border of Langsat Park had to be relocated and the traders initially refused to do so. On 8 August 2025, a groundbreaking ceremony was held to start the revitalization and merging process; it was surreptitiously held to avoid protests from the traders. The ornamental bird kiosks remained in site until they were ultimately demolished in late October 2025 and were later relocated on a site near
Lenteng Agung railway station. The revitalization and merging process costed around 100 billion
rupiah and was funded through
corporate social responsibility. On 14 March 2026, the Bendera Pusaka Park was inaugurated by Governor Pramono Anung and former
Indonesian President Megawati Sukarnoputri. == Monument ==
