Interactive City Map of Yogyakarta

The slow pace and compact size of this quintessential Javanese city makes Yogyakarta easy to explore on foot (as you can see at the interactive map below). Most areas of interest center around Malioboro Street, whose wide, canopied sidewalks offer shelter from the mid-afternoon heat and by night turn into a colorful street market where you can buy leather goods, textile, batiks, wayang puppets and much more. Close to the extraordinary monuments of Borobudur and Prambanan, the silversmith's village of Kotagede, and the beaches at Parangtritis, Yogyakarta offers a feast of culture and history plus nature in all her majesty, from rumbling volcanoes to pounding surf.
