Goods from being imported and local goods, from daily necessities to electronics goods, furniture and so forth. Also provides a variety of crafts, eg batik, wayang, ayaman, bags and so on. There is also a foreign currency exchange, bank, up to five-star hotel type jasmine. However, do not lag to browse Malioboro street that is already very popular. Can walk from edge to edge on two side streets, or with a 'gig' [delman / andong] and becak typical Jogja. In the daytime the area is very busy Malioboro both residents and visitors of tourists, especially when the school holiday season arrived or have national holidays that long.

If you had lived in Yogyakarta or just stop by while you may not have with a foreign name Angkringan. Angkringan, as seen in the picture side is the place sells a variety of food found in many of the city Yogyakarta.

Food sold quite diverse, there is rice in cat, gorengan, sate, sweet tea, ginger wedang, and many others. Generally operate in the evening until the early hours even though not a little that can be also found disiang days.

Angkringan albeit often labeled as the stalls puisne consumers have a diverse, ranging from population Jogja, driver angkot, becak carpenters, rough workers, artists, cultural, and not as a lecturer and students even executive class society.

Kind of consumer behavior that can be found in Angkringan. There is just buy and then bring them home, have a meal in a home there also continues to type 'loyal customers ", namely the consumers who come, eat, chat, go, come again, eat again and again to chat.

Speaking in a matter of chat Angkringan, there are many themes that are common but usually discuss issues other than the private consumer is also not uncommon to discuss issues that are 'hot' that occurred around the operation area is about their work or even the incentive is being made in the incentive-radio and television.

Viewed in terms of economic, business Angkringan quite promising. The advantage of this business Angkringan can reach tens and even hundreds of thousands per day.

Traders Angkringan, as far as one author, it is usually enough bermodalkan tent and trailer and a little equipment, such as stove and cooking pot for heating water. While for the goods that are sold more on goods from the supplier, except sugar and lemon for the ice tea and sweet orange, two drinks the most in demand in the sale.

Few tips for you who want to try the menu Angkringan, memiiki if you have enough money that you choose to try the direct Angkringan in place for a while have the money from hand to mouth, as I often experienced while still a student in Yogyakarta, prefer to buyers who bought into the menu as needed and continue to return home (not eaten in place, pen). Nothing actually only if you choose to eat in the place where food is concerned that many akan 'dicomot,' want this, if you want it later in the calculation 'jatunya' can be more expensive than buying roasted rice plus chicken rice stalls in the Jakarta.

2009-08-18T00:05:00.000-07:00

Yogyakarta was the establishment of the Agreement Date Gianti on 13 February 1755 by the Netherlands under the signature of Governor Nicholas Hartingh on behalf of the Governor-General Jacob Mossel. Content Agreement Gianti: Country divided Mataram two: Half is still a kingdom of Surakarta right, half right into Prince Mangkubumi. In the agreement, she also recognized Pengeran Mangkubumi became King bag half hinterland Kingdom with Java Degree Sultan Hamengku Buwono Senopati Ing Alega Abdul Rachman Sayidin Panatagama Khalifatullah.

The areas which the authority is Mataram (Yogyakarta), Pojong, Sukowati, Bagelen, Kedu, Bumigede and the world that is added; Madiun, Magetan, Cirebon, Half Pacitan, Kartosuro, Kalangbret, Tulungagung, Mojokerto, Bojonegoro, Ngawen, Sela , Kuwu, Wonosari, Grobogan.

Once completed the Regional Division of the Agreement, Pengeran Mangkubumi the title of Sultan Hamengku Buwono I immediately determined that Regional Mataram is in his name is given Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat and beribukota in Ngayogyakarta (Yogyakarta). This proviso was announced on 13 March 1755.

Place the selected capital city and a center of government is called the Forest Beringin, where there was a small village called Pachetokan, while there are a Pesanggrahan Garjitowati named, made by Susuhunan Paku Buwono II first and then the name changed to Ayodya. After the above determination was announced, Sultan Hamengku Buwono immediately ordered to the people membabad forest was established earlier for the Palace.

Before it was Palace, Sultan Hamengku Buwono I was occupying the guest house Ambarketawang Gamping, the center also works. Menempatinya Pesanggrahan is authorized on 9 October 1755. This is the place he's always supervise and manage the development of the Palace is being done.

A year later the Sultan Hamengku Buwono I wish to enter the opening of the New Palace. Thus the city of Yogyakarta or stand with the name utuhnya is Negari Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat.

City built in 1755, together with the Kingdom of dibangunnya Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat by Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono I Beringin in the Forest, an area between the river and river Winongo Code where the location is visible aspect of the defense strategy at that time the security
After the Independence Proclamation 17 August 1945, Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono IX and Sri Paku Alam VIII Royal Highness received a charter to be appointed Governor and Vice Governor of Province of DIY from the President of the Republic of Indonesia, next on 5 September 1945 he issued a mandate that states that the Sultanate and the region is Pakualaman Special areas that are part of the Republic of Indonesia according to article 18 of the 1945 Constitution. And on 30 October 1945, he issued a second mandate which states that implementation of the Government in Yogyakarta akan conducted by Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono IX and Sri Paku Alam VIII Royal Highness with the National Labor Committee

Although the City of Yogyakarta which is the better part of the Sultanate, and become part of Pakualaman can have a House of Representatives and the City Council of the City Government led by the Regent and the City Kasultanan Pakualaman, but have not become a city of Yogyakarta City Praja or Autonomous City, because of the autonomy covering various areas of governance still remain in the hands of the Government of Yogyakarta Special Region.

City covering the areas Kasultanan and a new Pakualaman Praja City or Town with the birth of Autonomy Law Number 17 Year 1947, in Article I states that the District includes the City of Yogyakarta and Pakualaman Kasultanan region and some areas of Bantul Regency is now a District Kotagede Umbulharjo and defined as areas that have the right to set up and manage the household alone. Area called Haminte City Yogyakaarta.
Autonomy to implement the Mayor's first dijabat by Ir.Moh Enoh experience difficulties because the region is still a part of the Special Region of Yogyakarta and its status has not been removed. This is increasingly evident with the introduction of Law Number 22 Year 1948 on Key Local Government, where the Special Region of Yogyakarta as Level I and Yogyakarta municipality as a Level II to be the Special Region of Yogyakarta.
