What to do and see in Yogyakarta, Java: The Best Things to do Adventurous

December 2, 2021 Jasper Kershner

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.

Merapi Volcano

Reviewed By pondheron - Mumbai, India

We took the 90 minute mini Jeep Tour to Merapi - a little apprehensive about the rainclouds that obscured the sky through most of the day. The brightly coloured old red Jeep with a young man at the wheel bumped across the route - which was mostly paved , slowed by oncoming truck traffic carrying volcanic ash away for construction. We stopped at a village which had been damaged by the lava in the 2010 eruption - preserved complete with skeletons of cattle, burnt motorcycles and home appliances, a volcanic rock that was shaped like a face and appropriately called The Alien, and finally at the last lookout point 4.5 kms from the imposing volcano. The rain clouds cleared after a drizzle and the volcano was clearly visible - smoking ominously. An eerie and imposing sight on a dull drizzly day. The route is dusty so make sure you use the dust cover or take care especially if you are asthmatic or allergic. A very enjoyable drive with a fascinating view. Well worth the price of ₹1750 (Rp 350000) for 2.

Jomblang Cave

Reviewed By avangelio_86

Din expect there is 300m muddy, slippery, rocky and dark hike. And I brought my 7yo boy with me! Whole hike is tough and hard, but it is so worthy! We made it to the end and come back! Its beautiful! And u will see the light only when u are lucky enough! Worth a try, remember to wear slippers, sport attire and prepare a head torch if you may, It is really useful. Extra clothes and pants too, u will need it after the hike.
