Not worth visiting if you are tight on time. The admission ticket for foreigner is very cheap at Rp15,000 so you could still enter to view the site. However, we didn’t take away much from this...

Amazing palace. I visited the palace in Feb 2020, and I still remember it until today. It is an ideal place to know Javanese culture, enjoy the traditional dance and gamelan. In addition, a visitor can know the brave Sultan’s contribution in 1825-1830, and also can learn the importance role Yogyakarta played in struggling for the independence of Indonesia. The entrance fee is just nominal, only 10k. Everywhere is worth seeing, everyone behaves with courtesy. Thanks Sultan’s family for providing us visitor such a good opportunity to have a good time in this palace in Yogyakarta.😊🙏

I guess this place is one of the top want-to-visit sites in your list in Yogyakarta. Little bit too wide to look around thoroughly but you can feel quietness and coolness inside. It's almost like an open-air park. I don't know whether it's really worth visiting for all, but only if you have a bit or more of curiosity on Indonesian culture, maybe it's worth spending some time on it and tick the list. Some places are not allowed to even enter, but it seems okay to enter into because it is just open. As a result, a staff runs to me and gets very angry in Indonesian language. You'd better show a warning sign in English! If you want to take some photos, it costs you Rp. 1000. There is an official guide you can hire for free, but mine was non-English speaker. If an English-speaking guide, my experience was more exciting?

The palace seems to be grouped into two paid sections. Both cost 15 K to enter. The first includes the royal carriages and an inside area with some artefacts. This is located opposite the parade ground. Going to the second palace, it includes more of the outside areas which will entertain some people. It's all oddly cool on the second location outside

We came here on Sunday, so many people there. But we enjoyed it. Great historical place to visit, love the ambience. Recommend to bring your kids here, so they can learn the culture.
