The plan is this: From Amplaz, buy a bus ticket for Rp 3.000, then head to Vredeburg Fort on the Downtown area and Visit a Museum built by Dutch.. then i catch another bus, and go for "Alun-alun" area which is my favorite because of the Keraton Building.. The downside was that taking the bus today meant missing the Prambanan's Culture Exhibition.. But as sulaiman pointed out, it should be an easy access to get it tomorrow..
I managed to cadge the back seats on the bus, which was great for the first couple of minutes as the bus wasn’t very full..
then i'm arrived in this Beautiful fort..named Vredeburg, after the colonization of dutch in jogjakarta..the shape of the fort actually better seen from above than from below, i got this photoshoot from google earth
well as you entered the main gate and pays the tickets for Rp 2.000.. you can see how the Dutch's influence play a role in the shape of it's building..built in 1760 as written on walls.. (as de facto) built by Dutch mayor Van Den Burg in the land owned by Kesultanan Jogjakarta (Islamic kingdom of jogjakarta)..
inside there were several old building, among them is the building for Leutenant, soldier barrack, Logistic Silo, Gunpowder warehouses, Hospital, and residence houses..this fort used to be guarded by 500 Town Watch, including Medics..
after a 3 hours of exhausting journey back in the year of 1760..my friend sulaiman told me to move on to the next destination, Alun alun utara (northern citycenter) ..
