my trip my english adventure in MALIOBORO
Malioboro
Malioboro Street is very famous for street
vendors selling Jogja crafts and nightclubs that sell Jogja gudeg food and
famous as a gathering place for artists who often express their ability such as
playing music, painting, hapening art, pantomime, and others along this road.
Currently, Malioboro Street looks wider
because the parking lot on the side of the road has been moved to the parking
lot Abu Bakar Ali. Thus, for pedestrians to be more liberal because the
sidewalk on Jalan Malioboro can be used completely.
Malioboro is a legendary shopping area that
became one of the pride of the city of Yogyakarta. The naming of Malioboro
comes from the name of a British colonial member who once occupied Jogja in
1811 - 1816 AD named Marlborough
The colonial Dutch East Indies built
Malioboro in downtown Yogyakarta in the 19th century as a center of government
and economic activity. Symbolically also intended to rival the power of the
Palace of the splendor of his Palace that dominates the region.
Tourist activities in Malioboro not only
during the day, but in Malioboro this tourism activity will continue with the
nuances of dinner provided by the stalls that appear at night, especially after
21.00 pm. While eating a meal at Malioboro lesehan stall, tourists will be
entertained by street musicians who visit the lesehan while playing certain
songs.
Jalan Malioboro (English: Malioboro Street)
is a major shopping street in Yogyakarta, Indonesia; the name is also used more
generally for the neighborhood around the street. It lies north-south axis in
the line between Yogyakarta Kraton and Mount Merapi. This is in itself is
significant to many of the local population, the north–south orientation
between the palace and the volcano being of importance.
The street is the centre of Yogyakarta's
largest tourist district surrounded with many hotels, restaurants, and shops
nearby. Sidewalks on both sides of the street are crowded with small stalls
selling a variety of goods. In the evening several open-air street side
restaurants, called lesehan, operate along the street. This is the street of
the artists. Street musicians, painters, and other artists exhibit their
creations on this road. Less obvious to the tourist, but more for the local
population, side streets, lanes and structures that lead on to Malioboro are as
important as the street itself.
History
Jalan Malioboro (ca.1900-40)
Jalan Malioboro at night
The street was for many years two-way, but
by the 1980s had become one way only, from the railway line (where it starts)
to the south - to Beringharjo markets, where it ends. The largest, oldest Dutch
era hotel, Hotel Garuda, is located on the street's northern end, on the
eastern side adjacent to the railway line. It has the former Dutch era Prime
Minister's complex, the kepatihan, on the eastern side.
For many years in the 1980s and later, a
cigarette advertisement was placed on the first building south of the railway
line - or effectively the last building on Malioboro, which advertised Marlboro
cigarettes, no doubt appealing to locals and foreigners who would see a pun
with name of the street with a foreign product being advertised.
It does not reach the walls or grounds of
the Yogyakarta palace, as Malioboro ceases in name adjacent to the very large
market Beringharjo (on the eastern side as well). From this point the street
changes name to Jalan Ahmad Yani (Ahmad Yani Street) and has the former
Governors residence on the western side, and the old Dutch Fort Vredeburg on
the eastern side.
