Yogyakarta

When I first landed my feet on this land, I know it'll have to be my new home for the coming 5years. Nothing much here if you asked, but somehow after this 5years of "getting used to", I became very well fitted into this society here in Yogyakarta.

"Don't you wanna come to Yogyakarta and take a look on this place that I lived in for the past 5 years?" It's a question that i would casually ask my friends and family. The answer was always similar, "what is there to see?". Well, it's not as happening as Jakarta, no shopping spree like Bandung, no magnificient sight as in Danau Toba, no beautiful beaches like Bali... What is there to visit, they insisted. If that's the case you're thinking about, there is really nothing much to see here.

However, a picture says a thousand words, rather than me talking on and on about what we have here in Yogya, I might as well show you some pictures that i took ( unprofessionally ).

Presenting to you Mount Merapi's view from the airplane.

This is took @ Ketep Pass, a higher place which is cool and windy to have a better view of the mountains. Once we reached Ketep, just looking at the facinating great Mount Merapi and the greeneries around amazes me.

Introducing one of the wonders of the world- Borobudur. Wait, is this the one that we use to study in Sejarah, which was once upon a time? Yeah it is. Well before i came here, honestly i know nothing about Borobudur. But here it is, Travel Yogyakarta can never lack this tourist attraction!

I guess that's about it for today. Coming up more next on Tangerine Travels Yogyakarta.
