 With the diversion of the Ciliwung toward the Gunung Sahari Canal, a section of the Ciliwung between Prinsen Laan (now Jalan Mangga Besar) and Postweg (now Jalan Pos) was dried out.The old course of the Ciliwung now corresponds with Jalan Kartini XIII Dalam.In the early 19th-century, a Chinese cemetery ("Chineesche Kerkhof") was established around the area of the old course of the Ciliwung.
