Plataran Teras Hutan Ibu Kota: A New Era of Sustainable Luxury in Indonesia, Groundbroken by President Jokowi

On September 25, 2024, President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) officiated the groundbreaking ceremony for Plataran Teras Hutan Ibu Kota, a landmark project in Indonesia's visionary new capital, Ibu Kota Nusantara (IKN). Positioned to redefine dining and hospitality in the region, this flagship initiative by Plataran combines Indonesian culinary excellence, cutting-edge architecture inspired by Kalimantan, and a steadfast commitment to sustainability.

 
Plataran Teras Hutan Ibu Kota will showcase Indonesia's diverse culinary heritage, offering an elevated menu that celebrates the nation's rich flavors while incorporating modern techniques. Guests can expect a sophisticated dining experience that not only delights the palate but also tells the story of Indonesia's culinary traditions, making every dish a journey through the archipelago.

The architectural design of the venue pays homage to Kalimantan's cultural essence, seamlessly blending it with contemporary Indonesian aesthetics. Incorporating elements such as intricate Dayak-inspired carvings and traditional geometric patterns, the structure will utilize sustainable materials to create an elegant yet eco-friendly space that harmonizes with its lush forest surroundings.

President Jokowi expressed his optimism for the project, stating, "Plataran Teras Hutan Ibu Kota is more than a dining destination–it's a symbol of Indonesia's commitment to creating a sustainable future. This initiative will inspire more investment and innovation in IKN, showcasing the potential of our new capital to the world."

At its core, Plataran Teras Hutan Ibu Kota embodies the principles of ecotourism. From the construction process to daily operations, every aspect will prioritize environmental conservation, community empowerment, and cultural preservation. The project underscores Plataran's mission to lead the way in sustainable tourism while delivering world-class experiences.

Slated for completion within a year, Plataran Teras Hutan Ibu Kota is set to become a cornerstone of IKN's development, attracting visitors and investors alike. This venture aligns with the broader vision for IKN as a green, inclusive, and forward-thinking capital that reflects the best of Indonesia's heritage and aspirations.

As a beacon of sustainable luxury and innovation, Plataran Teras Hutan Ibu Kota is not just a dining destination–it's a testament to Indonesia's ability to harmonize tradition with progress, proving that the future of hospitality lies in honoring the past while protecting the planet.
