Serang Bus Tickets
Serang, the capital of Banten, is the heart of the region’s provincial government and a gateway to natural wonders unlike any other.

Serang is around 90 kilometres (55.9 miles) away from Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia. You can travel by bus to Serang or by train or a rented car. Serang bus tickets from the country’s top bus operators are available on redBus.
Important Locations to Visit
- Masjid Agung Banten: Also known as the Great Mosque of Banten, Masjid Agung is a 16th-century mosque that represents the few relics of Banten’s erstwhile glory. The remains still display the Javanese style of architecture considered eclectic in those times. The minaret is a recognizable landmark, featuring a mix of Indian-Mughal designs and Candi fixtures.
- Old Banten: The Old Banten Complex hosts the remains of Serang during the time of the Islamic Banten Sultanate. The walls of the fort are well-preserved, and the surrounding areas are worth a walk-about. You might not find a tour guide in the area, so it is recommended that you read up on the history of the site before visiting so you can enjoy its full potential.
- Karangantu Harbour: Once a bustling crossing to and from the rest of the world, today the Karangantu Harbour is a sleepy port with fishing boats bobbing about. If you head to the Port of Karangantu, you might be able to board a tourist fishing boat that takes a two-hour journey on the water, showing you the sights and sounds of Serang.
- Kaibon Palace: This historical relic is a window to Banten’s glorious past. Despite being hit by earthquakes, the structure is still relatively stable and packs quite a punch in terms of history. You might or might not find a tour guide here, so it is always best practice to read up on the history of the place before you head there. This way, you know exactly what you are looking at and can have a more enriched experience.
- Vihara Avalokitesvara: This Buddhist temple is home to one of Southeast Asia’s tallest statues dedicated to the Goddess of Mercy. The brass statue is said to be 61 feet (16.8 metres) tall and coated in gold of 22-carat value. The grounds of the temple feature delicate Chinese motifs and religious deities as well as a massive dragon fruit plantation.
