Bangsal Kencana, its marble floor, intricately decorated roof, Dutch-style stained-glass windows and great columns of carved teak.
Sneaked view of the performers while they were taking a rest.
The visitors can enjoy the atmosphere of the kraton in former times by visiting the life-size diorama of wedding ceremonies on the palace meeting hall, performed by puppets, which are intentionally arranged to create such an atmosphere.
A museum of Keraton. The architecture of it and patterns on the walls are very intrigued and grand.

KEBUN BUAH MANGUNAN
Exotic place with nice view, beautiful green forest, hills, valley and river.
A nice sunrise and sunset also provide in this place. Since then Mangunan fruit garden become popular in social media .
Best timing to visit is in the early morning which the thick clouds are still covering the moutains.
But we went there in the late afternoon so we missed the thick moists.

Taman lampion pelangi is one of the night monument of Yogyakarta that ought to visit. It contains variety of unique lanterns that resembles flowers, bears, historical buildings, and many more. Live music is held there every six months.
Check out the lanterns below.. Unfortunately, those weren't everything because the park is too huge and we had only limited time to explore T.T
There,, we were rushing to JOGJA CITY MALL before it closed for operations
it is the biggest mall in Yogyakarta with unique Roman facade and pillars inspired architecture. A bit far from city centre however it offers different atmosphere from other malls in the city. Wide range and selection of culinary treats are available there, from high-end restaurants to cheap & affordable food stalls.
It is worth to give a visit. The mall is spacious and not so much noises compared to others place. It gave the feeling of overseas.
