Kraton Palace and Masjid Gede Kauman

A friend of mine, Mas Nby Matahati, went to Yogyakarta for few days. Good oportunity to hang around with him...
First, we went to Merapi. But I already have so much from this...
The next days was in Yogya, visiting the old mosque Masjid Gede Kauman , then going to the sultan palace, called Tamansari, ou Water palace... and finaly the Kraton palace...







My Friend Nby, always ready to make some fun...








I don't know exactly the protocol ruling the life of the Sultan's palace, but there some public exhibition of traditional Javanese dance and music. And the palace if full of different places with different role in the protocol, for different member of the Sultan family... Hey, I'm not writing a touristic book, just showing you some pictures... !!!
