Authors have been conducting the field research under the title 'Origin, Transformation, Alteration and Conservation of Urban Space of Colonial cities' since 1999. The cities where we carried out field studies are Cape Town (South Africa), Cochin (India), Galle (Sri Lanka), Malacca (Malaysia), Jakarata, Surabaya (Indonesia), Elmina (Ghana), Recife (Brazil), Paramaribo (Suriname), Willemstad (Dutch Antilles) etc.. We had grasped almost all the factories, forts and cities constructed by VOC and WIC, collecting old maps, documents and literatures from ARA (Algemeen Rijksarchief), KB (Koninklijke Bibliotheek) in Den Haag and KITLV (Koninklijk Institut voor Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde) in Leiden. Batavia was the capital of VOC which was called 'Queen of Asia'. The plan of Batavia is thought to follow the plans of cities in mother country as Amsterdam, Delft and so on. Among many architects and engineers who were active in 16^<th> century, Simon Stevin attracts us as a theorist of urban planning. This paper discusses the relationship between the spatial form of Batavia and S. Stevin's 'Ideal City'.
