    The place is very lively at night. There are some interesting attractions and food vendors. However, due to its packed nature, sometimes it's hard to find a parking place or even drive around it.

    Always becoming a tourist magnate with its historic values and the eye catching colourful and bright cabs. You can also find local food at an affordable price here. Prepare small change as there are many beggars.

    Nice for a short sightseeing, like 1 hour. Enjoy the crowd while sitting on the grass. And ride the cartoon wheel car around the square. Get cheap street food if you're a bit hungry.

    Salah 1 tempat favorite di jogja, baik utk warga lokal dan turis. Disini kita bermain sepeda gowes yang berbentuk replika mobil. Ada juga jajanan khas kota jogja di pinggir alun alun kidul. Dan dua pohon beringin yang menyimpan tanya. Karena banyak orang mencoba melewati dua pohon beringin tersebut dengan ditutup matanya, ada yang berhasil ada juga yang tidak.. akam menjadi sensasi tersendiri untuk anda dan teman liburan anda

    The good place to get the true feeling of Yogyakarta. You can enjoy the night view of Alun Alun Kidul riding "Colourful Light Bicycle". And, when you visit in the daylight, don't forget to visit nearest tourist attraction 😊

    Place: it is public place, known with two big trees in the center of the field. If you go here you should try to walk from the line of the field with closed eyes to the middle between the trees. You better go here when it is dawn, because you can see crowd here with colorful lamp bicycle that can be ride for 3-6 person. There are rest room in the north, and mosque in the west of the field.

    There are many stall here where you buy your (oleh-oleh) - gifts. There are many shirts and other trinkets to choose from.

    The open field is a great place to sit and relax.

    There are a fair amount of stalls selling various foods including VERY fresh fish, calamari (squid) and other items.

    The pricing is very reasonable and there is a lot of food that you get.

    The people are very friendly and always willing to help.

    One of the square that is alive during the night. You can find many street foods and some street attractions in this place. There is also a famous challenge here in which you have to go through between two big trees that are located at the center of the park. Once you made it, it is believed that you will be lucky enough to get what you've been wishing for. You also can ride unique bicycle that are full pf lights and they have various shapes that will attract your attention.

    this grassy open field is a great place to hang out with your friends or family especially at night.you can enjoy the street food such as wedang or cilok, ride carnival cars decorated with lamp, buy traditional toys or you can just sit there and enjoy yogyakarta's night air. it's quite crowded in holiday season. do not come when it's raining and the street singers can be a little disturbing, but all and all it's interesting place to visit

    One of the beat place to enjoy city life in Jogja. Here you can just sit around with your mates, enjoying the street food or you can try the legendary tale-game called 'masangin'. If you can do it, your wish would come true, people said. There used to be elephant cage with real elephant in the west side of this place but now it's gone.

    This is one of many attractives place in Jogja.
    Tourism sites, of course.
    Many peoples visit this place, especialy during holiday..
    You might have the best experience if you visit this place at night.

    There's also a myth here, which is whom who can pass-walking between two trees on eyes-closed, s/he would be able to get what s/he wants.

    Based on this myth, either you believe it or not, so many peoples are trying to pass between these two trees..
    There are also some people who rent an-eye-cover to ease you not to cheat and see the way..

    It sounds like easy, but trust me, it is not that easy to walk straightly..

    It isn't a sight to see at day, but it's pretty eventful at night. There are this neon bicycles and cars you can ride with your fam or friends. On the sidewalk, there are so many food stalls you can choose from to fulfill your appetite, or if not hungry yet, you can try to step pass the two legendary banyon trees.

    Great place to wind down after a long day. Street bites such as Cilok & various Tempura (fish balls etc.) can be enjoyed while chilling on the mats on the ground in between the stalls.
    Iconic LED lit bikes available for rent as well at around RP 40,000 for 1 circle around Jalan Alun Square.

    It's really just an undeveloped town square inside the Kraton. It seems popular with local high school kids. I think there's a secondhand market here on Sunday mornings.

    You can try the "pure heart" game and walk into between of the two banyan trees, use your own eyelids or rent for just 5000 rupiahs. Or, you can in the night rent a quadcycle that fascinates your sight with light plays.

    I loves how this place has a very friendly environment.
    At night, especially weekends there are so many people hanging out here.
    Be prepared with coins to face the "street musician" coming to your place (if you wants to give them, it's ok if you didn't).
    I don't recommend going to this place at day because it is clearly very hot.
    The grass didn't quite covers the soil completely, so it'll be wise if you bring something and put it under your butt (this will keep your pants clean).
    The most to try thing here is walking through the two trees with your eyes closed.

    No other place like this one in Jogjakarta or even Java. A " magical place" known for the two big trees between which one can walk through with eyes closed and found him/herself off-track instead of maintaining a straight path. It is an old square close to Keraton where people just spend time sitting on a tatami and have simple food/drinks or rent a "bicycle-car" or ride on horse or just waiting for sunset.

    This place is awesome and beautiful. You can visit here at the afternoon to enjoy the city of Jogjakarta. This place is strategic and really well known because of two magical banyan trees in the middle of alun-alun. Many people believe that if someone can through the space between two banyan trees with closed eyes, your dream will be come true.

So why don't you come here, and try it. Lots of fun you will find here.

    A field located behind the royal palace of Yogya. In the middle of the field there are 2 giant banyan trees. Tradition here, if you can walk right through these two banyan trees with your eyes closed, you're a clean-hearted person and your way of life will be smooth. You can believe it or not. In this place you will not be charged, only you can rent a blindfold of 10,000 rupiah.

    Popular place to jog or workout in the morning and every Sunday. Very crowded at weekend, holidays, and peak season. Many attraction such as toy cars or tandem bike. Many food stalls selling snack, food, beverage. Little bit hard to park for cars when it's started to get crowded at night. Fun thing, you can try 'Masangin' too here. There's myth that if you pray for something and can pass through the twin Beringin trees in the middle of alun-alun with eyes closed your wish will come true.

    It is one city square in Indonesia which its function still run: as a public meeting place. The square still open for public, no fence installed. You can try the mith of two big trees in the center, or you can jog arround it in the morning, or eat the street food, or at night you can paddle the decorated car-bike in fancy neon light. The cars are suitable for young children or new couple wanting to strengthen the bond.

    The grass need some trimming. Be careful when stepping into the field, some ground is muddy when wet.

    Used to be a very standard touristic spot since this is part of the Sultan's Palace, but now the experience improved significantly - thanks to Yogyakarta's ingenious culture. Visit this place after dark and you'll be amazed by the organic light show, traditional toys sellers and bubble attraction. If you have small kids, they will never forget the experience :)

    I really enjoyed a chicken noodle dish here on those low tables they set out at twilight. It's fun to watch (or drive) the pedal cars with the neon lights. By day, its worth while checking out the craftsmen working the semi-precious stones. You might find something you really like. Very handy to the Trans Jogja stop.
