Things to Do in Yogyakarta City
Shopping in Yogyakarta City
Shopping in Yogyakarta City is inseparable from sightseeing itself. Malioboro and Kilometer Zero are its arteries — rows of vendors selling batik, Jogja-themed shirts, silver crafts, and legendary souvenirs like bakpia and yangko. Nearby, Beringharjo Market, standing since 1758, offers an even wider batik selection at negotiable prices. Because the shopping quarter sits next to the city's cultural spots, a single afternoon is usually enough to cover both.
