context_page_description: Blok M is a business and shopping quarter located in Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, Indonesia. It runs east from Iskandarsyah street to Bulungan street in the west. North from Falatehan street to Melawai street in the south. The development is less modern than some of the developments near Kota, West Jakarta and many of the buildings are run down. On daily basis crowds of people throng its street, and even more so during night time. Much of the popularity of the quarter is due to the prices of goods, the night life, karaoke, massage parlour and the accessibility of the centre, considering it contains one of the largest bus stations in Jakarta which many Transjakarta and Kopaja buses depart from, since 2019 this area is also served by Jakarta MRT with Blok M MRT Station which directly connected to Blok M Plaza.
