Senayan, Kebayoran BaruIt is worth to note that in spite of the name use, the Gelora Bung Karno sport complex - which is also known as Gelora Senayan Sports Complex, isn't within the boundaries of this administrative village, not even in South Jakarta. The sports complex lies within the up-north adjacent Gelora administrative village, which is under the administrative municipality of Central Jakarta.
The name Senayan is derived from the word Wangsanayan, "land of Wangsanayan". According to De Haan, Wangsanayan was a Lieutenant from Bali who lived at the end of the 17th century, but little is known about him. As time progressed, Wangsanayan was shortened to Senayan.
