Yogyakarta Stories

Yogyakarta, the old royal capital is Java’s artistic hub. Yogya is the cradle of Javanese civilisation, home to Indonesia’s ancient Buddhist masterpiece the Borobudur and remains the undisputed creative capital of Java Island. A city that is fiercely protective of ancient rituals and festivals, but at the same time an easygoing student town with modern art galleries, original batik boutiques and artisan cafés.
