Things to do in Yogyakarta, Java: The Best Shopping

June 6, 2021 Alice Mieles

Yogyakarta boasts stunning architecture and a truly spiritual sensibility. The ancient Hindu temples of Prambanan look like hand-drizzled sand castles, while the Sultan's palace is reminiscent of a gilded music box filled with jewels. Known for its arts and handicrafts, Yogyakarta is a cultural hub, a nerve center for traditional and modern puppetry.

Gajah Gallery Yogyakarta and Yogya Art Lab

Since 1996, Gajah Gallery has been a pioneering body in the Southeast Asian arts scene, representing the region’s leading artists such as Yunizar, Ashley Bickerton, Suzann Victor, Li Jin and emerging artist such as Erizal As. After twenty years in the business, Gajah Gallery established a second outpost in Yogyakarta, at the heart of the Indonesian art scene. Gajah Gallery Yogyakarta aims to nurture an exchange between the Singaporean and Indonesian art scenes, while promoting artists from the region and advancing their international portfolio. This is evident through exhibitions such as Intersections in 2014; a groundbreaking visual juxtaposition of notable artists from Southeast Asia and Cuba, as well as the Bantul Art Summit in 2016, and most recently SUPERnatural; which features 20 Singaporean contemporary artists from a broad spectrum of disciplines. Within the gallery premises is the Yogya Art Lab; an experimental laboratory, creative space, and casting foundry.

Leksa Ganesha Batik Gallery

Reviewed By jonathann509

Incredible craftsmanship. Tatang was a gracious host who explained the many different pieces of batik art on display in the gallery and the stories of the artists who made them. The quality of batik in this gallery is unparalleled in Indonesia, and the effort made by Leksa Ganesha to use their batik craft to impact local issues in Indonesia, including orangutan habitat preservation and maritime conservation, makes Leksa Ganesha stand out in the field of batik in indonesia. In addition to exceptional batik, the kind folks at Leksa Ganesha will show you each step of the batik process, including how the dyes are created, where the resist wax is applied, and how it is removed at the end of the process. They also have a coffee shop that sources local beans from farmers working in volcanic areas of Indonesia like Ijen and Merapi. We can't recommend this strongly enough. We were able to get incredibly beautiful, unique, and priceless batik that we will treasure long after we have left Indonesia, as well as an interesting tour and insight into the efforts of this great organization throughout Indonesia. Go visit!

I have been to Batik Seno 4 times now. Each time I bring my daughters and guests from abroad. Albeit the price might be higher than at other places, unlike other places where you are limited to 1 color and you are limited to a simple design, here you are free to explore, copy from one of their batik, or create your own design, use many colors and learn the different coloring techniques as well. Highly recommended for those interested in batik and batik making. You will truly appreciate the value of batik after a workshop like this. Note: suitable as a family activity as well, I last took my 10-year old niece and she loved it, especially since she could bring home her batik and have it framed. I recommend you call in advance to make sure 1) there is enough sun (need it to process the batik colors), and 2) the lovely ladies who batik there are available to teach and help correct mistakes (believe me there will be many!)

Malioboro Road

Reviewed By suyowong - Jakarta, Indonesia

If you are the first time to Yogya, this is recommended, surround by hotels, shops, batik shops, local foods, international foods, mc.donalds, starbucks etc to gudeg, soto, fried rice until hidden gems like delicious pork satay. Malioboro is the way to Kraton (Yogyakarta Palace) so this is important road and you may walk from train station to Kraton. Dont forget to visit the local traditional market and Hamzah Batik for one stop souvenir shoppings and cafe also cabaret show in Hamzah batik 3rd floor. Search Hamzah Batik/Raminten Cabaret review.
