Yogyakarta

Java's cultural capital combines ancient temples with living traditions. Watch sunrise illuminate the world's largest Buddhist temple at Borobudur, explore the Hindu temples of Prambanan, witness silver crafting and batik making, experience the Sultan's palace, and watch a wayang kulit shadow puppet performance. The city buzzes with students, artists, and motorcycles.
