Prambanan Temple
6.7
4.7/5278 Reviews
Historic buildings
Open tomorrow at 06:30-17:30
118***00:“Prambanan, the largest Hindu temple complex in Southeast Asia, is magnificent. Each tower is engraved with vivid stories and legends. Under the setting sun, it looks even more mysterious and glorious. It is also a great time to take photos and is well worth a visit.”
Borobudur Temple
7.2
4.5/5369 Reviews
Historic buildings
Open tomorrow at 06:30-17:30 (admission ends at 16:30)
Felix6699:“The scenic area is well organized, the English explanation is clear, there is no Chinese explanation guide for the time being. Buddhists deserve to visit the ancient Borobudur pagoda in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. It is very spectacular and shocking. It is hard to imagine how such a huge and complex Buddhist building was built in ancient times. It is worth the trip.”
Ramayana Ballet Purawisata - Jogja
5.3
4.7/518 Reviews
Live ShowPerformances
Open tomorrow at 09:00-21:30
今天也开心🤪:“It was my first time watching such a performance, and I loved it!!! The plot was familiar to me because I had learned it when I was in school, and the actors' performances were also wonderful! There were some "breaking the fourth wall" interactions from time to time, I loved it! I took a photo with the leading actors after the performance hehehe
(What made me a little distracted was that I felt that the actor who played Rama was too thin🤣 He was too thin and weak, and it seemed that he couldn't protect Sita, and it was not easy for him to perform that kind of decent momentum (Dan still acted well!))”
Surabaya Zoo
5.6
4.9/540 Reviews
Open tomorrow at 08:00-16:00
珏子的妈妈:“When you go to Surabaya, the zoo is worth visiting. It is close to the city center, and the ticket price is just over 7 yuan. There are many kinds of animals, and they are also unique: Komodo dragons, large, medium and small. The number is beyond imagination. The proboscis monkeys are lively and cute, entertaining themselves. It is also convenient to have a dining area in the zoo. The local people are also very friendly. In short, it is so convenient to watch Indonesia's national treasures and special animals up close, and the cost performance is really high. If you have time, you can have a good time for half a day.”

chinadesk1:“The original royal family, servants and staff still live in the Yogyakarta Sultanate Palace, and they all wear ancient clothes. The palace is located at the end of Malioboro Street. After shopping, you can take an electric tricycle to get there quickly.
The palace is not very large. The architecture is traditional Javanese, European, and Islamic architectural features can also be seen. The main attraction is the ancient gamelan musical instruments. It is said that one set is a relic of the Majapahit Dynasty and the other is from the Demu Kingdom. There is a monument donated by overseas Chinese in the palace. The door opens at 8:30 in the morning. An old man at the ticket office has served the palace for decades and has received many Chinese tourists. Chat with him and get some information.
The ticket is a package ticket, including air tickets, a total of 8RMB. It takes about an hour to visit. From another exit, you can walk or take a tricycle to the water palace.”

Model J Hotel Jakarta Soekarno - Hatta Airport
4.6/5466 Reviews
Guest User:“It's a brand new hotel, I can only say everything is perfect. Thanks a lot for the wonderful breakfast and convenience of the free bus traveling between the airport and the hotel.”
Sheraton Surabaya Hotel & Towers
4.7/5112 Reviews
Bk_Em:“I originally booked one of the renovated rooms and there is a bit of fiasco in the first day when I came back to the room it just reeked of raw sewage, almost like a pipe it exploded, and I immediately called housekeeping who sprayed but said that they would move me to a different suite which is the one in the photos. This is one of the more expensive suites and it’s basic and similar in comparison to the renovated suite. However, renovated suite looks like it was renovated back in 1990s as the other suite was much nicer and more modern
Overall, the service was fantastic. The food in the breakfast was delicious. The pool is nice. I’ll be at a little quiet and overall it’s a great location if you wanna go out to different sites or if you just wanna cruise the mall or do some quick shopping ”

OOI YEW TEIK:“Exceptional Hospitality and Unmatched Convenience
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the entire hotel staff for their exceptional hospitality. From the moment I arrived, I felt like a true VIP—thanks to the warm and professional service from every team member, including reception, housekeeping, and security.
This hotel's prime location makes it an ideal choice for both business travelers and families. The seamless connection to Pakuwon Shopping Mall provided a fantastic shopping experience, adding to the convenience of my stay.
The room exceeded my expectations in cleanliness and comfort, allowing me to enjoy a restful sleep throughout my two-night stay. The hotel’s facilities, including the well-equipped gym and the refreshing swimming pool, were impressive and well-maintained.
A standout highlight was the remarkable Asian cuisine offered at the hotel. The flavors were authentic and diverse, and an expanded selection of 10 to 15 types of sambal would elevate the experience even further.
One of the most memorable touches was the fulfillment of my special request for welcome fruits, which truly made me feel valued as a guest.
Overall, I wholeheartedly give this hotel a well-deserved five-star rating and look forward to returning for another exceptional experience.”
