Indonesia·Yogyakarta citywalk on the 1st, just walk like this

Yogyakarta is one of the oldest cities in the central and southern part of Java Island, and it is also the city where I stayed the longest on this trip to Indonesia. The reason for staying for a long time is not because it is fun, but because of laziness. Apart from the day trip to Borobudur, the city attractions of Yogyakarta are actually quite concentrated and very small. If you are diligent, you can basically finish it in one day. ✅Sultan Taman Water Palace The palace of the Sultanate, the entire building complex is very small, but it combines European, Javanese and Indian styles. The most characteristic are the two small swimming pools in the middle, which were the places where the concubines bathed. It is said that if the Sultan saw a concubine by the pool, he would throw a flower next to her, which is equivalent to turning over the card. 📍Taman Sari 💰5000⏰9:00-16:00 ✅Sultan Palace Located in the center of the city, it was built by the first Sultan of Yogyakarta. After Indonesia's independence, the original royal family continued to live here, and the servants in the palace were also wearing ancient clothes. I arrived at noon, but unfortunately, I was accompanied by staff all the way and was not allowed to wander around. The overall tour is quite ordinary. If you want to go, it is best to go at 11 o'clock in the morning because there will be performances. 📍Sonobudoyo Museum, Unit II 💰12500⏰8:30-14:30 ✅Yogyakarta Biennale Visual art is one of the most important cultural arts in Yogyakarta, and this positioned exhibition hall is also introduced by local Taiwanese students. Overall, the exhibition hall is small, and all the exhibits are student works. Some of the works are very interesting. You can go and see when you are bored, and there are often activities. 📍Biennale Jogja 17 ✅Malioboro Street The busiest street in Yogyakarta, and local artists will perform on the street at night. But overall, Yogyakarta's economy is not developed, and it is like a commercial street in the fourth or fifth tier of the country. 📍Malioboro Yogyakarta Although I stayed for many days, I didn't visit other attractions in the city. Because it's really too hot, I feel like I'm going to be sunburned. And to be honest, the attractions in Yogyakarta are small and there are not many highlights. When I was shopping at the end, I didn't want to go in and visit. So I didn't go to the puppet museum and so on.
