Hidden away on Indonesia’s Java Island, Yogyakarta warmly welcomes all those who discover it. And once you’re here, this Island city’s stunning scenery and tranquillity will embrace you and enchant you to spend time exploring the sites. Yogyakarta is known for its rich cultural heritage and the people’s love for traditional arts. Throughout the region, you’ll see evidence of this deep-rooted culture that manifests in its traditional music and dance, delectable food scene, and unique things to do. You can immerse in the heritage in locations like the Sultan’s Palace, an 18th-century complex that hosts Javanese dance concerts. Another historic site you can visit is Fort Vredeburg Museum where precious artifacts are preserved. If you’re interested in visiting Yogyakarta but don’t know where to stay, don’t fret.

1. Rumah Gladak (from USD 32)
This traditional building was initially used to store harvested rice but has since been converted into a rustic and idyllic retreat that overlooks Yogyakarta’s farm fields. Savvy travelers could consider this property a culture-immersive glamping spot where they can experience Indonesian country life.
There’s an outdoor kitchen where guests can prepare their meals, but those looking for authentic Indonesian cuisine can also order traditional homemade meals from the village. There are also many experiences for culture vultures, such as joining workshops for Wayang Kulit shadow puppetry and making jamu, a traditional Javanese herbal drink.
