Little trips round Yogya -- 45 -- Taman Budaya
by prudence on 20-Apr-2014Our walk this morning took us once more from Prawirotaman to the ever-picturesque Kraton area.
Our ultimate destination was Taman Budaya, where there's an exhibition of sculptures by Purjito, called Sembah (Worship).
I loved it. Very simple. Serried ranks of white figures, multiplied by mirrors, all in poses of reverence and adoration. Very powerful. And ever so slightly spooky...
Rounded off with a stroll through the calm, peaceful grounds of Banteng Vredeburg. It turns out there's a smart new cafe...
Finally, we took a becak back to Prawirotaman where we recovered Rufus, and rode home.
I love our little trips. I've been really busy all semester, and mostly work six days a week. Little trips are a life-saver...
