Travel Blogs from Yogyakarta, Indonesia
Day 51, Pt.1: My First Motorcycle Ride
This is a top pick! ... place during my time here, dangit. It was a peaceful place to spend an hour or two however, and a good introduction to Yogyakarta's general relaxed vibe. I also made an Instant-Friend(tm) here who after volunteering his guide services onto me, despite my ...
Day 51, Pt.2: Mister Chah'Ching
This is a top pick! ... . Awesome. I sat for a while listening to the performance and nibbling on some coconut fried chicken, then disembarked for the Internet cafe where I killed the rest of the night. Nightlife in Yogyakarta ("Jogja") isn't terribly wild, so I didn't miss ...
Yogyakarta
This is a top pick! ... very good, brand new looking planes, professional staff…and I believe they even now have a license to fly in Europe! Yogyakarta, pronounced Jogjakarta, is an hour east by plane from Jakarta. It has a completely different feel to Jakarta and as our ...
there's a market for everything...
This is a top pick! June 18 What an amazing adventure I had this evening...unexpected as they usually are. Yogyakarta, (promounced joeg-ja-karta), which is a city in Java, has a bird market right in the middle of town, near the Sultan's palace. I thought I'd ...
Mount Merapi & Yogyakarta - Day 184
This is a top pick! ... sides of the volcano. Finally reached the village two and half hours after leaving the summit. Had some breakfast and returned to Yogyakarta in the mini-van. When I arrived back in Yogyakarta, went straight to the train station and booked a ticket to ...
The real Java
This is a top pick! Jakarta was crap, and I was tired. Really tired. I hadn't had more than 4 hours sleep since arriving in Sabah the week before, and the amount of miles I had covered was exhausting. It's much more tiring sitting in a bus all day than you'd think. I had ...
Big Buddhas of Borobudur
This is a top pick! ... places so I can keep writing vaguely interesting entries. I hope you don't mind. To start this week I found myself in Yogyakarta, a major city in south central Java with a population of 2 or 3 million. It's considered the arts and learning capital of ...
Javan Lava
This is a top pick! ... to pass on the offer for our possibly last chance of such luxury for a very long time. A... On the April 5th Indonesia will be holding their first ever free presidential elections, and campaigning is pretty well under way here. It's pretty ...
Yogyakarta - Day 180-181
This is a top pick! ... epic journeys now. When I get home I'll be catching buses and trains everywhere, who needs a car! When I arrived at Yogyakarta train station I walked the short distance to Jalan Sosrowijayan or Sosro for short. Sosro is where all the cheap ...
A little dancing, a little protesting
This is a top pick! Yogyakarta is pronounced Jogjakarta, and that's how it's spelled in Indonesia. I have no idea why we spell it with a Y. It's also the cultural capital of Java, and an excellent jumping off point for Borobudur. Our excursions in Yogya ...
Jogia
This is a top pick! ... sold a trip for the next day to see some temples, but first he had to drop us off in Yogyakarta !!! Yogyakarta is an autonomous ruled city in Indonesia. Even though the country has a president, this place has a Sultan but does not have any real power as ...
More Temples
This is a top pick! Now if it wasn't for Borobudur being such a huge site on it's own, another World Heritage site, Prambanan would be widely known, but then again, before I visited Borobudur, how many of you knew of it? To be honest, I knew about Borobudur but I had no ...
The Circle of Enlightenment
This is a top pick! ... spectacular on top, we also had fun with the locals again. Now I dont really understand why people dont travel through Indonesia, maybe the bomb in Bali has effected this, but at the temple was us and another two western looking blokes and heaps of ...
Via Via Cafe
Today I really slept in until 10:30AM, it felt great. The hotel was already booked for tonight so I knew I had to make other arrangements. Luckily I met an Aussie, Jonathan who was staying at the same hotel who offered for me to share his room (two beds) ...
Borobudur
This is a top pick! Now that I am in Lombock, I have a hard time remembering all the things i have done and seen along the way. Let's backtrack to Yogya. In Yogya, i wnt to see a sarong collection that includes more than 3000 sarongs from Java and the Yogya area. Some of ...
From Jakarta to Yogyakarta
This is a top pick! ... that my boyfriend/husband has to work in Malaysia and that I don't so I took the time to travel for 2 months across Indonesia. It works and can keep the guys off my back. I also watched devoted Moslems fulfilling their 5 times a day prayer obligations ...
On Top of the World
Tonight I had already booked a midnight hike to Mount Merapi, the local active volcano. The van filled with seven others arrived at 10:30PM and drove an hour and up into the mountains. Not a smooth drive to say the least. Our fee was sold to us as ...
Chill Time
Today was another relaxing day. I woke for the 9:00am yoga class, had breakfast and a shower before catching a becak. I didn't mention before but a becak is the local transport, taxi substitute which is a cart attached to a bicycle that they guys line ...
Ready for Asia
... inevitably delayed and confusing functionality in Indonesia. For example the flight I booked upon arrival in Jakarta to get me to Yogyakarta was scheduled to depart at 7:00PM; I believe we finally left at around 9:00PM arriving into Yogya, also spelled ...
Another Day on the Back of a Moped
Now that I had access to someone with a scooter, Agoes and I arranged for him to escort me around to all the major sites today. Again for a fee. Original meeting time was scheduled for 9:30 but I chose to sleep in. First stop we went directly to the ...
Choo choo to Yogya!
This is a top pick! We decided to take the train to Yogya which would pretty much take us the whole day and the scenery on the way was stunning once again - flying past volcanoes, rice paddies and small villages! Most amusing watching 2 little boys having a gunfight over ...
Touring the Cigar Factory
... out what you're talking about, they BOTH correct you. WW noticed painted in the empty cigar box that they were hand rolled in Yogyakarta at the Taru Martani cigar factory. So we set out on foot, with map in hand, determined to find it. We walked ...
Bed bugs, belly aches, batik & Borabudur!
that's a lot of b's! we've spent the last 6 days or so in Yogyakarta, a lovely city & the culture capital of Java (if you've been to Chiang Mai in Thailand, this is a good comparison). it's a very tourist friendly town, as the main sites, ...
sleep on the train???
... us with jokes and magic tricks (due to it being impossible to read with all the madness around us). Very tired we got to Yogyakarta, taxi was waiting for us, checked into the hotel and off to explore the place. We ended up eating fried and BBQ duck in ...
In Merapi's shadow
... (under 50p I'm afraid). So it's bye to Indonesia & Serena & Jacqueline & off to Drawin. Have enjoyed Indonesia, particularly outside of Bali where we have been fairly lone tourists (except for the Gili's) and everyone has been very friendly. ...
Jamu, Mak Erot & Gado Gado
... shocking and definately eye-opening!!. The next day I finally received news that my friend Kumis was heading to Yogyakarta and after a tedioous day of waiting around and trying to contact each other through various borrowed telephones, he turned up at ...
"I Need More Allowance - yo di lay hee ho"
... , who is singing a retro song from the cartoon 'Doug.'" Come to think of it, more allowance wouldn't hurt. ;) -- We got into Yogyakarta ("jog-jagarta"), aka Yogya, after an 8 hour train on Sunday. On the train we got to see many rice paddies, ...
From Cycles to Sultans
Day 9 Last night we made a vow to get up early this morning, so before 9 we were out in the heat and light of Yogyakarta. We had only a vague notion of what what there was to see and do, so first of all we headed down Jalan Maliboro (street of flowers - ...
Jogjakarta
... was, a beautiful towering volcano with smoke pluming from the crater summit. We had totally enjoyed Java and Cathy and I would like to visit Indonesia in more depth than just the month we plan to be here. But for now its off to Thailand to meet up with ...
