Enjoy the thrill of Yogyakarta Malioboro Street

Clouds are hanging in the city of Surabaya to haunt my steps to immediately go to several main bus terminal. The terminal has become a center for people who use land transportation to and from Surabaya. My aim is to Yogyakarta. The town is full of tradition and cultural heritage.

Terminal Giwangan be the last port of call on entering the city of Yogyakarta. Witnessed the sun that has begun to dim, I continue the journey toward cultural icons one of the cities in Java. Yes ... that is the area Jalan Malioboro. Dim the lights as the colorful welcome my arrival.


After booking the hotel to stay, go on to enjoy the wonderful atmosphere at night in Malioboro. Maliboro Road is the name of the street in the city of Yogyakarta, which stretches from Tugu Yogyakarta up to the intersection of Post Office in Yogyakarta. Consists of Prince Road Mangkubumi and Jalan Jend A Yani, this road is the imaginary axis line of Yogyakarta Kingdom.


What caught my attention when crossing Malioboro is reopening old colonial memory. The reason, in the path of this road there are some magnificent buildings with ancient arsitektu still standing strong. As Tugu Yogyakarta, Tugu Station, Great House, Market Beringharjo, Fortress and Monument Vendeburg Oemoem attack March 1.


Less afdol if not enjoy the typical dish Gudeg City while in the region. Especially famous Malioboro in the presence of street vendors who peddle a variety of crafts and of course typical Yogya lesehan stalls are ready to be a loyal friend when stomach rumbling.


Not only that, this place is also a place of creativity of artists to express themselves. From start artists music, painting, hapening art, mime and several other artists made the Malioboro Street, the media to show his ability.


Unfortunately, although the concept of "populist" is very strong in this area, but if you visit this area please be careful. Yes, the price of food in Malioboro can strangle the neck. Looks like the shop owner saw the potential draw of the tourists who come here to raise the price of food is quite expensive. So do not be surprised if your shadow in the region eat cheap.
Adorned Heart Yogya


Not if one is called the heart of Malioboro Yogyakarta city. In this very busy road by passing vehicles. From traditional vehicles such as tricycles, then gig / carriage / wagon, bicycles, carts and motorized vehicles such as cars, taxis, city buses and public transportation do not miss this street jazz.


Hustle and bustle of it, too, who make Malioboro feel alive. Yet if we trace, the length of this road is not up to two kilometers. As if there are magnetic, this street is always crowded by locals or foreigners who want to just get together, go shopping or just enjoy the beautiful night in the city of Yogyakarta. Unlike the major metropolitan cities such as Jakarta or Surabaya, vibrant Malioboro is still much influenced by local culture. This is what makes Yogya has its own charm.


Enjoying food in Malioboro less fit without listening to the song Om Donate Doel. "All I remember. And do not be kulupa. Memories of the most beautiful. ... And the most fun. There is a beautiful song in Malioboro. The song of love about you and me. There is a beautiful poem in Malioboro. Sajak love about you and me. "


Yes ... romantic out if you hear a song Om Doel, especially if the streets with people dear. Guaranteed to beat the hectic atmosphere of Malioboro. But then again, when eating alone, lest you be tempted by the menus in Lesbian scattered in these streets.


Notice the price of food, ask for a draft price menu. If you do not want to bag you out too deep. Shame it, because I'm romantic in the bag of money apparently thin. Missing deh romantic atmosphere.
