We have an assignment to write and present about a place/site. So, I and my friend chose Malioboro street.
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.
Malioboro street is a wonderful place. Many tourists go there. This is because Malioboro street contains many unique crafts work and handmade from Yogyakarta. It is usually very crowded at night.
In Malioboro street, there is a mall called Malioboro mall. It is a three-storey mall that also contains many kinds of goods and crafts work made by the locals. The second and third floor mostly contains restaurants and shops we normally see in an ordinary mall but it also contains goods.
Besides the mall, there is a special food in the street called gudeg, which is a mixture of vegetables, but usually, people add their toppings such as chicken, meat, etc. This food is known all over Indonesia, but it is unique in Yogyakarta. This is a must-eat meal in Yogyakarta.
This street is very known all around the world. Its existence is well-known all around for its goods and unique crafts work from its locals. For me, this place is awesome and unique.
