Fun and entertainment Yogyakarta

For those who love crafts, culture and DIY, Papermoon Puppet Theatre is a must. Established in 2006, this enchanting venue offers three-hour clay puppet-making workshops, as well as theatrical performances to delight young and old alike. The theater itself is superb, with its high ceilings, multicolored stained-glass windows, works of art scattered across the walls and, of course, a bevy of puppets. A real gem for artistic souls.

There are times when the best plan is to settle down in a café for a few hours, either to plan the next stages of a trip or, for those less fortunate, to get on with their work. Cold N Brew is the place to do just that, with its state-of-the-art coworking spaces, top-notch wi-fi connection, and an offering of specialty coffees to die for. Whether your heart's set on aeropress, French press or even siphon coffee (or cake), they've got you covered.

Located in the hills of Gunungkidul, about 40 minutes from Yogyakarta, Heha Sky View is the perfect place to watch the sunset for tourists and locals alike. On weekends, the place comes alive with live concerts, creating a festive atmosphere. Its café-restaurant offers a selection of drinks and dishes, mixing local and international flavours. For photography enthusiasts, the site abounds with installations such as glass platforms and swings, offering unique perspectives for capturing magical moments.
