4 Nava K - a year ago

Out first sightseeing for the day. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I love it. All the different designs of style of the carriages. From those days and to, maybe the latest ones. Overall, a wonderful experience. Furthermore, my handphone camera wouldn't stop clicking. On this day, since it was the off peak season, no many people. In fact, just us during this 1/2 an hour we were in this museum. Not really a big museum, yet, an experience I am still treasuring till this day.

Small museum, specialized in royal family carriages. There are 27 type of carriages which is pulled by 2 to 8 horses, depending on how high the position on the royal family hierarchy. Not enough lighting, make it feels unwelcoming atmosphere, but fortunately most of the carriages are so beautiful and breathtaking, and all the carriages are still used in certain occasion. The ticket and taking picture permit are cheap. Better come to this place early in the morning, and at weekdays

This museum houses a complete collection of horse carriages dates back from as early as 19th Century... These carriages used by the Royal Family on various occasions from Royal Marriages to Funeral... It's recommended to hire a guide who can explain any info about each carriage n its history...

The entrance fee was Rp5.000,00 and the additional fee for taking pictures was Rp1.000,00. It was a relatively small museum and it could use some rejuvenation and better lighting, but it can be tricky with such a meager amount of entrance fee. Using a guide is recommended as written explanation in the museum was limited. It houses various horse-drawn carriages that belong to the Yogyakarta Sultanate.

It is the place to. The entrance fee is cheap and you can pay a cheap fee to have a permission to take a photo. Here, you can see the collection of carriage of Kraton Ngayogyakarta and see the details of the carriages. The people (also being the guard of this museum) here are the Abdi Dalem of Kraton Ngayogyakarta. We can learn how to live in peace from the people even they don't have many. The parking lots is quite big.
