Surakarta Hadiningrat Palace

 

 Indonesia tourism, Solo City Info.
Solo City has 2 palaces, which until now, although activity was still limited to the cultural activities that is Surakarta Hadiningrat Palace and Palace of Mangkunegaran.

Surakarta Hadiningrat Palace is headed by a king with the title Pakubuwono while of Mangkunegaran Palace is headed by a king called Mangkunegoro.

Both palace is a cultural heritage that still must be maintained as a witness to history and also a major tourist destination in the city of Solo.

Inside the palace there are many relics that can tell the history of the past although not as much as formerly. From these relics we can imagine what a great power of the two kingdoms are owned in the past. The powers include the government, culture and social and religious.

To enter the palace we will be charged a fee ranging from Rp 15 thousand or U.S. $ 1.5.
To be able to know the story of each heritage, available guide that will help tell the history of each object we see. There are no official rates for this guide but it ranges from Rp 25 thousand or U.S. $ 2.5

Cheap hotels in Solo

Solo City Info, Indonesia tourism, Hotel in Solo Information Solo City this time about cheap hotels in the city of Solo. In addition to leading hotels in the city of Solo, there is widespread cheap hotel or inn.

For tourists from overseas and out of town, we recommend looking for the location of accommodation in the city like in the Kauman, Keprabon and Baluwarti or in territory Surakarta palace. In addition to its location in the middle of town, the area is relatively safe and quite clean hotel with very cheap rate of about $ 8 or Rp 75 thousand.

When staying in this area, then access to the city can be done quickly because it is close to the main road Slamet Riyadi. 

As a suggestion, to locations in Keprabon is about 10-50 meters from the main road Slamet Riyadi. You can just walk away and when you arrived on Main Street You can just choose a bus transportation modes of economic (non air-conditioner) with a rate of Rp 2 thousand, bus air conditioner with a rate of Rp 3 thousand and Batik Solo Trans rates to Rp 3 thousand. All rates are valid far and near, which means that if our goal is much the same rates apply when we are near the goal.

Taxi.
Almost all taxis in the city of Solo to use metered, I recommend only using the air meter taxi. There are many taxis as Kosti Solo, Central Taxis Solo, Solo Taxi, Taxi Crown Solo, and Solo Taxi Gelora.

2 name of the taxi fleet mentioned earlier is the longest operating in Solo at the same time that we recommend.

International Airport Adi Soemarmo Solo.


Adi Soemarmo Solo International Airport.

Indonesia tourism, Solo City Info today is about Adi Soemarmo International Airport as one of the gates to the city of Solo.

Actually, the location of this airport are in Boyolali. But already since the beginning the people more familiar with this airport as an airport in Solo. Even today there is a discourse that want change to be Adi Soemarmo Boyolali.
However, let the political process is running and we take a walk alone in the city of Solo.

From the airport we can use a taxi to the city of Solo who managed the airport at a rate of about Rp 75 thousand, or if the hotel where we stay provides transportation to pick up, it would be more advantageous.

It is currently only taxi service to and from the airport but the government is committed Solo in the near future will be transportation to the airport plusto the Solo and Railbus Batik Trans .

Hopefully these steps make us closer to the airport.

Below the cliff resort

  Solo City Info, Solo city tourism
Wow ... really interesting look at one resort located on the border of the tourist sites Tawangmangu Karanganyar with Sarangan tourist sites. But until now, I do not know anyone who has ever lived there.
I actually doubt that the resort as a place to stay but for strange rituals. A person who I asked about the resort was also confirmed that in fact the great officials who often "stay" to perform rituals involving the position, wealth, power and often crowded ahead of regional elections.
wow, ... please believe it or not but that's the facts.

I prefer it actually resorts to be a place to stay. And very rarely resorts to place under the bridge. Unique once ... hopefully no one litter so that litter the resort's roof.

Therefore, let us support it resorts to the real tourist area and used to stay while enjoying the surrounding scenery is quite interesting.
