Going back home does not always mean returning to the birthplace, does it? It can mean visiting certain places or cities where someone used to stay in the past. Tour de Djokdja, with this edition theme of "Back to Jogja", invites those who stayed in this student city in the past to return, to hold something like reunion and to visit favorite places that they often visited when they were in Yogyakarta.
For those who have not been to Yogyakarta, we would like inform you some interesting specialties of this city such as Kopi Joss sold by Angkringan Lik Man as one of the oldest food stall in Yogyakarta, antique things sold in Pasar Klithikan and Masangin done in the South Square.
For those who lived in Yogyakarta before, these will bring memories to the gudeg city; and for others who have never been to Yogyakarta, this information is expected to attract them to visit Yogyakarta.
Enjoy your journey!
Angkringan Lik Man, Spending Your Night in Yogyakarta with Kopi Joss
Angkringan is food stall selling rice, side dishes and drinks at very cheap prices. Angkringan Lik Man, named after the owner, is managed by the son of Grandpa Pairo who was the first angkringan seller in Yogyakarta. Serving special drink, namely Kopi Joss or Coffee Joss, this place once was the place for spending the night by some popular characters of Indonesia.
Pasar Klithikan of Yogyakarta, Hunting Unique, Used Things
Known since 1960s, Pasar Klithikan offers more than used things. Its good quality, uniqueness and friendly nuance of the market are added values.
Alun-Alun Kidul (The South Square), Finding Tranquility and Blessing
Alun-Alun Kidul symbolized by a calm elephant offers a tour package to calm someone's heart down, to warm nighttime with ronde and bajigur beverages and to get blessing through Masangin.
