In the morning visit the Sultan’s Palace, also known as ‘Kraton’ - the central aspect of the Javanese cosmology with the Kraton being at the centre of the Mt Merapi and Parangtritis Beach lines. This building constructed between 1756 –1790, is a fine example of traditional Javanese sultanate architecture. Next visit the adjacent ‘Taman Sari’, water palace and garden. This addition to the royal complex was built over 200 years ago by the first Sultan with bathing pools for his harem. Then continue to Beringharjo Traditional Market, Yogyakarta’s biggest and noisiest market that dates back to the 18th century.
