YOGYAKARTA

ABOUT YOGYAKARTA

Yogyakarta is a bustling town of some half a million people and the most popular tourist destination on Java, largely thanks to its proximity to the temples of Borobudur and Prambanan. The city of Yogyakarta is one of five districts within the semi-autonomous region of Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta (DIY), literally the "Yogyakarta Special Region". This special status is thanks to the Sultanate of Hamengkubuwono, which has ruled the area since 1755 and steered the state through difficult times of occupation and revolution.

During the Indonesian war of independence, Sultan Hamengkubuwono IX offered the fledgling Indonesian government his enclave as capital city, thus Yogyakarta became the revolutionary capital city of the republic from 1946 to 1949 when Jakarta was still occupied by the Dutch. As a result, the central government recognized the Sultan of Yogyakarta as the appointed governor of Yogyakarta Special Region.

Alas, Yogyakarta lies in one of the most seismically active parts of Java and has thus repeatedly been struck by earthquakes and volcano eruptions. The worst in recent times was the earthquake of 27 May 2006, which killed over 6,000 people and flattened over 300,000 houses. However, the epicentre was 25km north of the city, which thus avoided the worst of the quake, and a surprisingly effective disaster recovery effort saw most of the physical damage repaired quite quickly.

Only four years later, in October 2010, the nearby volcano of Mount Merapi erupted, spewing lava over nearby villages, Cangkringan and killing 353 people. After rumbling on and off for two months, the volcano quieted down by December 2010. The area now becomes a tourist's spot to explore the damaged areas from the eruptions. Locals have been evacuated to other safe new locations, and the activities are only during the daylights for tourists and 'sand's-rocks collector'.

The imperial legend lives on at Royal Ambarrukmo Yogyakarta. What once served as the Yogyakarta Royal palace and gardens stand today as one of the city’s finest 5-star luxury hotel.

Meticulously renovated, Royal Ambarrukmo Yogyakarta infuses authentic royal tradition, glamour and grace with 21st century modernity and sophistication. Behind its regal façade, the Royal Ambarrukmo Yogyakarta hotel features 247 room and suite accommodation for a luxury experience beyond compare, infusing the tradition and heritage of the Java royal palace with 5-star amenities and indulgences.

Dress code: casual

This morning we will depart to visit one of the royal palaces in Indonesia where the sultan and his family live. Kraton, serves as a cultural center for the Javanese people and contains a museum that displays the sultanate's artifacts. From the palace, we continue to visit Water Castle or Taman Sari. It is the site of a former royal garden of the Sultanate of Yogyakarta. It is located about 2 km south within the grounds of the Kraton Yogyakarta. Built in the mid-18th century, the Taman Sari had multiple functions, such as a resting area, a workshop, a meditation area, a defense area, and a hiding place. Taman Sari consisted of four distinct areas: a large artificial lake with islands and pavilions located in the west, a bathing complex in the center, a complex of pavilions and pools in the south, and a smaller lake in the east. Today only the central bathing complex is well preserved, while the other areas have been largely occupied by the Kampung Taman settlement.

The temple compound, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the largest Hindu temple site in Indonesia, and one of the biggest in Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its tall and pointed architecture, typical of Hindu architecture, and by the towering 47-metre-high (154 ft) central building inside a large complex of individual temples. Prambanan attracts many visitors from around the world.

We will depart to Abhayagiri restaurant just before sunset to enjoy early dinner with a view of Mount Merapi, Prambanan and Sojiwan temple.

Dress code: casual

Our lunch today will be in the the Kraton complex. Bale Raos Restaurant serves special dishes from the past kings of the King of Sri HB VIII to Sri Sultan HB X. The idea to open this restaurant comes from GKR Hemas – the wife of Sri Sultan HB X who wanted to preserve the culture of the palace, especially culinary.

In the afternoon we will visit Prambanan or Rara Jonggrang temple. It is a 9th-century Hindu temple compound in Central Java, Indonesia, dedicated to the Trimurti, the expression of God as the Creator (Brahma), the Preserver (Vishnu) and the Destroyer (Shiva). The temple compound is located approximately 17 kilometres (11 mi) northeast of the city of Yogyakarta on the border between Central Java and Yogyakarta province.
