Tugu Yogyakarta

Yogyakarta is a province-level special region on the island of Java, Indonesia. Interestingly, the name of the provincial capital is also Yogyakarta. Uniquely, the name is often pronounced differently. Some call it Yogyakarta, Yogya, Jogjakarta, or Jogja.

“Yogya is made of longing, going home, and angkringan”

Yogyakarta is friendly with pocket money. If you want to take a vacation to Yogya, you can still find cheap accommodations that rent out rooms for IDR 60,000 per night. Yogyakarta is also known as a popular hangout place or what people call it as angkringan.

This city is one of several cultural centers in Indonesia. Every visitor can explore it by walking at the Keraton Museum (Sultan's Palace), chatting at Alun Alun Kota, and shopping at Malioboro, from enjoying the wonders of nature by visiting the beach to adventuring into other beautiful landscapes. Interesting sight points can be found on Panguk Hill, Pengger Pines, and Tembelan Gorge. Jogja's other tourist attractions are thousands of year-old temples, culture, and natural beauty. These are just a few of the many attractions that we can explore in Yogyakarta! To enjoy its culinary wonders, there is Gudeg, a special concoction of traditional Javanese recipes that have become the hallmark of this city. There is Bakpia, a traditional snack with lots of interesting flavors which is popular as a souvenir.

The city of Yogyakarta, in my opinion, is famous for its history, batik, and the friendliness of the people. Regarding hospitality, I think we all agree that Indonesians are well-known to tourists for their hospitality. It's only natural to be called a special city because Yogya is indeed special. Its culture and culinary delights have always been a tourist attractions.
