The Hall of Independence (Indonesian: Ruang Kemerdekaan) is situated inside the goblet or "cup" part of Monas (Indonesian: Cawan).
The hall, which contains various symbols of independence, can be reached through spiral stairs at the north and south doors.
The original text of the Proclamation of Independence is stored in a glass case inside the bronze golden door.
On the west side of the inner wall.
Mechanized bronze doors weigh 4 tons and are coated with goldleaf adorned with the image of a Wijaya Kusuma flower, symbolizing eternity, and a lotus flower, symbolizing purity.
The doors, known as Gerbang Kemerdekaan or the Gate of Independence, open slowly while the nationalist Padamu Negeri song plays followed by a recording of Sukarno reading the text of the Proclamation.
On the southern wall there is a large bronze gold-coated statue of the coat of arms of Indonesia weighing 3.5 tons.
On the eastern side is the text of the proclamation in bronze lettering.
Originally the eastern side displayed the most sacred Indonesian flag, Sang Saka Merah Putih, originally raised on 17 August 1945.
However, because it is fragile and in poor condition it is no longer displayed.
The wall on the northern side displays a map of the Indonesian archipelago coated in gold.

There is a middle platform on top of the cawan (goblet) which provides visitors with views from a height of 17 metres.
This middle platform is accessible through the elevator on the way down from the main observation deck (the lift stops on the way down at the cawan to allow visitors to exit) or through stairs from below.
