The Kraton, Reflection of Javanese Cosmos

# data[].attributes.body
The Kraton (also spelled keraton or karaton) or the Palace of Yogyakarta, is a grand complex that was meticulously planned to reflect the Javanese cosmos. Yogyakarta Palace is located at Jl. Rotowijayan Blok No. 1, Panembahan, Kraton District, Yogyakarta City, Yogyakarta Special Region. The distance of Yogyakarta Palace from the city center is 500 meters.

This elegant complex of pavilions was constructed based on ancient beliefs, of the connection between the God, human and the natural realms. Each feature holds a special symbolic meaning related to the Javanese worldview, who consider the importance of Mount Merapi and The Indian Ocean.

The Kraton was built in the center, facing directly north towards the majestic Mount Merapi. Its south side was built facing the Indian Ocean, believed to be the abode of Kanjeng Ratu Loro Kidul, the Queen of the South Seas and the mystical consort of the Sultan.
This splendid example of traditional Javanese architecture has no equal. The basic and original layout of the main building of The Kraton began its construction during the reign of Sultan Hamengku Buwono I, in 1755 - 1756.

Other surrounding pavilions were then gradually expanded by the successor of the throne. The official symbol of the palace is named Praja Cihna. It depicts important elements that radiate a philosophical meaning. The Javanese lettering in the center is “ha” and “ba”, the acronym of Hamengku Buwana. The red is a symbol of courage and vigilance to value the truth, while the gold is a symbol of majestic splendor.

A green square called Alun-alun Lor or the north square is set to be the front side of the palace, with large banyan trees guarding its center, named Kyai Dewandaru and Kyai Wijayandaru. Alun-alun Kidul or the south square is located at the other side of the palace’s north-south invisible horizontal axis.

This palace was designed to be more than just a royal residence. It was built to be a focal point of the Sultan’s entire kingdom. When a sultan passed away, the cortege will leave by the southern gate and head its way to the royal cemetery located in Imogiri.

South square or Kidul square is a landmark in the form of a field that cannot be separated from the Yogyakarta Palace. The people of Yogyakarta call South square with the name Alkid which stands for Alun-alun Kidul. As the name implies, the location of South square is on the south or the back side of the Yogyakarta Palace and is in the beteng area. The existence of South Square is also on a philosophical axis that is drawn straight between the Gilig Golong Monument to the Krapyak Stage.

What Can You Do In Alkid Yogyakarta?

1. Doing A Game Of Masangin

2. Renting Tandem And Odong-odong Bikes

3. Relax While Eating Culinary in Alun-alun

One of the characteristics of the South Square of Yogyakarta is the existence of two banyan trees called supit urang and given a round fence so it is also known as Ringin Kurung. The fence of the two banyan trees are in the form of bars with the image of bows and arrows as a symbol that an adult girl or man, akil balik, has dared to release her heart to the opposite sex.

Masangin Tradition in South Square of Yogyakarta Masangin is a tradition that is the attraction and uniqueness of South Square of Yogyakarta and often makes tourists curious. The Masangin tradition, which is related to the myth of twin banyans, is carried out by walking between two banyans with their eyes closed. Even though it sounds easy, it turns out that many people fail to do it even though they have tried many times.

The myth of twin banyans in the South Square of Yogyakarta is also getting stronger with the belief that in the middle of the tree there is a talisman to repel reinforcements to repel the enemy. That said, during the colonial period when the colonial army passed through the middle of the tree, their strength was immediately lost. From there came the belief that whoever managed to cross the two banyans was able to refuse reinforcements.

Despite its small size, the island holds stunning natural beauty and is a popular destination for travelers seeking adventure and incredible underwater life.

Among Penida’s most famous temples is Goa Giri Putri, a Balinese Hindu temple set within a limestone cave in the village of Karangsari. It sees a steady flow of pilgrims from the Bali mainland visiting to pay their respects and ask for holy water and blessings. Despite its growing popularity among tourists, Nusa Penida still retains its natural charm and invites visitors to preserve nature. Access to the island is still limited, but there has been infrastructure development to better welcome tourists. Boats mostly depart for the Nusa islands from the Bali mainland from the Padangbai seaport in East Bali, but you can also hop on a boat from Sanur. Most visitors usually stop at Lembongan and Ceningan first, then add a boat ride to Penida as an extended tour on their Nusa Islands trip. To get a beautiful sunset in Nusa Penida, I recommend visiting the place in the afternoon.
