The vast, clean and beautiful grand mosque of the Yogyakarta Islamic Mataram Kingdom dating back to the 18th century facing the North Square and located in Kauman, Ngupasan, Gondomanan District, Yogyakarta City. The main building has a Javanese tajug architecture, but there is no minaret. Spectacular interior design. Next to the Kauman Muhammadiyah Primary School. Clean separate ladies and gents toilets with washing taps. Spacious parking lots for motorbikes, cars and buses. A quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The backyard is an old public cemetery with a high wall. The North-East and the South-East corners of the vast front yard have buildings of the so-called Pagongan for performance of the traditional royal gamelan orchestra during the yearly Sekaten festival. To the North is the mosque management office (Kawedanan Pengulon) with beautiful and sparkly clean buildings.
