Tugu Jogja (One of the attractions for tourists)



Good afternoon, this time I want to review the "Tugu Jogja" which became an icon of the city of Yogyakarta. Tugu Jogja is one relic of history, because he was already very old. Here is an explanation of Jogja monument that I took from Wikipedia: "Yogyakarta is a monument monument or tower that is often used as a symbol / emblem of the city of Yogyakarta. This monument was built by Hamengkubuwana I, founder of the palace of Yogyakarta. The monument is located at the intersection of Jl Sudirman and Jl. This Mangkubumi Prince, has a symbolic value and is a magical line that connects the southern sea, and Mount Merapi Yogyakarta palace. At the time of meditation, it is said the Sultan of Yogyakarta at that time using this monument as a benchmark the direction facing the top of Mount Merapi. This monument is now one of Yogyakarta tourism objects, and often known by the term "white pal monument" (pal also means the monument), because the color of paint used since the first is white. Pal monument is elliptical with a small ball and the pointed tip at the top. From Yogyakarta court if we look to the north, then we will find that Malioboro, Jl Mangkubumi, this monument, and Monument Way Back Yogya will form a straight line exactly with the direction to the summit of Mount Merapi." Maybe it's enough that I can write for you, if you are curious about the Tugu Jogja, please come directly and see its beauty at night. Thank you for visiting, greetings.
