WELCOME TO JOGJA – WELCOME TO PURAWISATA
Jogja (Never Ending Asia) : Lying in the shadow of a 2914 meter-high pressure cooker, appropriately called Fire Mountain or Merapi, is the seat of the once mighty Javanese Empire of Mataram, Ngayogyakarto Hadiningrat.
It is called Yogyakarta (Jogja) today and came into being in 1755, when a land dispute effectively split the power of Mataram into the Sultanates of Yogyakarta and Surakarta (Solo).
The Sultan’s Palace or Kraton of Yogyakarta : Built by Prince Mangkubumi at this time and he used it as a focus to build the most powerful Javanese state since the 17th century. The Sultan’s palace is still the hub of Yogyakarta’s traditional life and despite the advance of 20th century modernity, it still radiates the spirit of refinement which has been the hallmark of its art for centuries.
Purawisata : Lying in the centre of the town, closed to the Post Office, only 300 metres south east of the Sultan Palace and the main historical street Malioboro. Only a few minutes from several star hotels in the town.
