Abstract

Being capital of Indonesia, Jakarta is the center of government, trade and business. It is also the largest city in Indonesia that has large shopping centers that is why it has become the paradise for tourists who love to shop. Yet it has tourist places with cultural values that are as interesting as shops. It is regrettable that this is not well known by tourists. It is necessary that they have a tourist guide on Jakarta. A tourist guide or travel guide is a book that contains information about specific places, a region or a country and that can help tourists to make the discovery. It also makes it easier for them to find important, simple but useful information. In addition, it is a means to promote a country’s tourism wealth. In Jakarta, it is difficult to find tourist guides who can speak in French, but the number of Francophones who are in Jakarta is significant. Thus, this research aims to create a travel guide for Francophones who are in Jakarta or who will discover Jakarta. It is a research and development (recherche et développement) whose data are derived from surveys of Francophones in Jakarta, tourist documents as well as interviews with a guide and staff of the Ministry of Tourism of Jakarta.
