Kraton and Taman Sari

The royal area of Yogyakarta (I suppose), houses among other things the Water Palace, or Taman Sari (direct translation: fragrant garden). It was a hideaway for the Sultan, for retreat, meditation, and other such things. It was damaged in the 2006 earthquake, but has been restored since.
