Santa Maria de Fatima Catholic Church
The Santa Maria Catholic Church is the only church building in Jakarta that uses Chinese architecture in Jakarta. This building was built in the early 19th century, which was originally the house of a Chinese nobleman surnamed Tjioe during the Dutch colonial period. In 1953, the building was purchased by Fr. Wilhelmus Krause Van Eiden SJ, on the assignment of the Apostolic Vicar of Jakarta (now the Archdiocese of Jakarta). Then in 1955, this building became a place of worship until in 2000 it served as the rectory of the Church of Santa Maria De Fatima.

Jin De Yuan Temple or Vihara Dharma Bhakti.
The Jin De Yuan Temple, also known as the Kim Tek Temple (Golden Virtue Temple) or Jin de Yuan (Mandarin language), is the oldest Chinese ancestral house of worship in Jakarta. In the 1700s, in the courtyard of this pagoda, a school was established for the Chinese who lived in Batavia. Initially this pagoda was named Kwan Im Teng, with the main altar deity namely Kwan Im. The term Kwan Im Teng is what has long been pronounced as a pagoda. This pagoda is estimated to have been around since 1650, built by Kwee Hoen. In 1740, this pagoda was burned and damaged, due to the Pacinan commotion in Batavia. Until 1755, this temple was rebuilt under the leadership of a Chinese captain named Oei Tjhie and named Kim Tek Ie or Jin De Yuan.
