WHERE TO GO

Beringharjo Market is officially located on Jalan Margo Mulyo No. 16, Yogyakarta. The word beringharjo literally means "banyan tree forest", a reference to the former trees that occupied the land, as well as to the notion that the market was expected to provide welfare for Yogyakarta residents.

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.

Jalan Malioboro is famous for its street vendors selling typical Jogja crafts and stalls. This street is also famous as a gathering place for artists who often express their abilities such as playing music, painting, happening art, pantomime, and others.
