Happy Holiday!
it is Sunday today, what activity do you have today??
well, when you are in Jogja now, you should have time to visit Taman Sari. It is actually a complex of Yogyakarta Palace which contains of some buildings there. Inside the buildings, you will find a pool. some years ago, it was used as bathing pool for the princess, and now, you are restricted to touch the water and play the water. the buildings looks so old, you can see from the walls and the woods which has already been peel and porous. But, those are the things which make Taman Sari beautiful and ancient.
Taman Sari is next to Kraton Ngayogyakarta, and it is about 500m from the famous Malioboro Street and Bringharjo Market. You only need to pay about Rp 3.000,- to enter the building. hmmm....so cheap right?? Yeah, you may also take best pictures there because every corner of Taman Sari has a uniqueness. check my photos here....

nah, those are just few pictures I took with my friends inside Taman Sari. Although it was raining at the time, the visitors kept walking around this area. I met some foreigners who were really interested to know this place. With an umbrella, they were seriously paying attention to the guide. My friend and I actually wanted to know more about this place by listening to the guide's explanation too (hee...lumayan....free guide service! hoho).
You know what, I got some information about this place. Actually, it was so often here that people surrounding Taman Sari heard mysterious voices in the night. Sometimes they heard Gamelan Sound (Javanese Traditional music), or sometimes heard a cart and the horses. whuuuu.....made me feel scared suddenly. moreover when I passed the dark alley inside this place. hiiiiyyy...I didn't want to pass it alone! Btw, I myself never hear about it before, but I can feel 'something' here. Yeah, the place gave me different and cold atmosphere, so silent here, just made me comfort and fresh, it wasn't noisy like the other tourism place.
FYI, outside Taman Sari, you can visit the other ancient building near Taman Sari. This building is not complete anymore, it was because of the time and might be the earthquake happened in Jogja before. anyway, here you can see the view from the top of the building. But, be careful, the wind was so strong (not appropriate for thin person! haha....no). But, last time I went there, we were banned to go up to the top because the doors were locked. I thought it was dangerous anymore for us to go up further.

| hey, it's the building! can you see it?? |

| before restricted, you can go up higher |
all in all, Taman Sari is still becoming an appropriate tourism place to visit in Jogja. this place contains of a pure Jogjanese historical buildings. The societies are pure Jogjanese people. the combination between the place and the societies show us the real Jogja. It's comfort, natural, friendly, fresh, and clean. this place has ever been the location for making some movies. So, don't be confused anymore to visit this place guys!
