Borobudur Temple

Felix6699
The scenic area is well organized, the English explanation is clear, there is no Chinese explanation guide for the time being. Buddhists deserve to visit the ancient Borobudur pagoda in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. It is very spectacular and shocking. It is hard to imagine how such a huge and complex Buddhist building was built in ancient times. It is worth the trip.

Prambanan Temple

_TI***ju
We were lucky that a trainee volunteer offered us a guided tour, which made the experience so much more authentic. We found out about the history of the temple, as well as the meaning of all the sculptures, which we wouldn't have known otherwise. He was very sweet! The temple that is a bit more further from Prambanan was closed, so we could only see the site from the gate. The ticket is a bit expensive for Indonesia, but slightly cheaper than other websites on Trip.com.

Ramayana Ballet Purawisata - Jogja

今天也开心🤪
It was my first time watching such a performance, and I loved it!!! The plot was familiar to me because I had learned it when I was in school, and the actors' performances were also wonderful! There were some "breaking the fourth wall" interactions from time to time, I loved it! I took a photo with the leading actors after the performance hehehe (What made me a little distracted was that I felt that the actor who played Rama was too thin🤣 He was too thin and weak, and it seemed that he couldn't protect Sita, and it was not easy for him to perform that kind of decent momentum (Dan still acted well!))

Taman Sari

Saya ke sana naik becak dari sekitar keraton 22ribu sudah termasuk taman sari, toko pia, toko batik.Buka setiap hari jam 9 sampai jam 3 sore.tiket masuk murah untuk turis domestik.Disarankan bawa topi dan kipas karena panas sekalu.

Surabaya Zoo

珏子的妈妈
When you go to Surabaya, the zoo is worth visiting. It is close to the city center, and the ticket price is just over 7 yuan. There are many kinds of animals, and they are also unique: Komodo dragons, large, medium and small. The number is beyond imagination. The proboscis monkeys are lively and cute, entertaining themselves. It is also convenient to have a dining area in the zoo. The local people are also very friendly. In short, it is so convenient to watch Indonesia's national treasures and special animals up close, and the cost performance is really high. If you have time, you can have a good time for half a day.

Beringharjo Traditional Market

It is well-known locally and is a good place to experience local city life.

Kraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat

The original royal family, servants and staff still live in the Yogyakarta Sultanate Palace, and they all wear ancient clothes. The palace is located at the end of Malioboro Street. After shopping, you can take an electric tricycle to get there quickly. The palace is not very large. The architecture is traditional Javanese, European, and Islamic architectural features can also be seen. The main attraction is the ancient gamelan musical instruments. It is said that one set is a relic of the Majapahit Dynasty and the other is from the Demu Kingdom. There is a monument donated by overseas Chinese in the palace. The door opens at 8:30 in the morning. An old man at the ticket office has served the palace for decades and has received many Chinese tourists. Chat with him and get some information. The ticket is a package ticket, including air tickets, a total of 8RMB. It takes about an hour to visit. From another exit, you can walk or take a tricycle to the water palace.

I have visited jodipan rainbow village is unique with colors, entry is two thousand rupiah per person, there are lots of wall art paintings which are very cute in their dimensions, the cleanliness is sufficient and what is very difficult to find is a parking space.
