Gamelan, the beauty from Yogyakarta

Tweet

A few days ago I got a project out of town, namely to Yogyakarta. Luckily for me, Yogyakarta is my favorite city on Java. Yogyakarta is a beautiful paradise with their traditional culture. I like their special food, puppet show (in Indonesia we call it wayang), batik art that has existed since long ago and of course its traditional music. And the coolest of all is their music, which is very melodic and very soothing, namely gamelan. His voice is very melodious and attractive. Things I rarely find in big cities like Jakarta. Usually I watch this music program at Kraton. Kraton is a Javanese language from the palace, and is a residence for the king of Java. I attached a video from YouTube that might make you interested in visiting there.
