Description:

In the charming rural areas outside of Yogyakarta, encounter authentic villages and local people as you experience Javanese culture. Visit a museum and see displays of local art, cycle through farmland and plantations, and watch a breathtaking sunset over the vast site of Ratu Boko.

Begin your tour at the privately owned museum of Ullen Sentalu. Well known for its fascinating exhibits of local artwork and artifacts from the historic royal palaces, it offers you a wonderful introduction to the culture of Java. Following lunch in the neighboring colonial building, continue to Kaliadem for your bicycle ride.

On mostly downhill trails, pedal through the lush agricultural landscapes. Aromas of tobacco and snake fruit hang in air, and there are regular stops to pause and chat with locals who work the fields. Upon arrival in Plaosan, a car is waiting for the final leg of the tour to Ratu Boko.

This vast archaeological site offers much to explore, including former temples, auditoriums, burial places, and more. The elevated location on a plateau means that you are in prime position to enjoy the deep oranges of the sunset as the shadows fall on Ratu Boko.
