I've dinner at Gudeg Bu tjitro in front of Jogja Expo Center. Gudeg are cooked chicken into the soup with a combination of herbs ginseng, dried dates, ginger, cinnamon, and secret spices. Savory broth mixed perfectly with the taste of ginseng. Besides delicious, this food also has many health benefits including eliminating fatigue and increase stamina.

The palace was originally named Abhayagiri Vihara (meaning monastery on a peaceful hill) was built for seclusion and to focus on the spiritual life. Being in this palace, you can feel the peace as well as see the sights of the city of Yogyakarta and Prambanan temple with the background of Mount Merapi.
