  • This article is a result of a phenomenological study of Kampung Luar Batang, a historical urban kampung located at Ciliwung river estuary in Jakarta, Indonesia. Islam missionary, Al-Habib Husein bin Abubakar Allaydrus, has forged image of the kampung as a pilgrimage place because of his sacred maqom. Outsiders who visit to this sacred maqom increase the intensity of public space uses and the occupants’ economic activities. Religious, traditional and economic activities have simultaneously created unique overlapping layers. This paper's intention is to generate a model that might be able to decode the elements and the layers of this interesting phenomenon.
