Whether you’re a local or an international tourist, visiting this place is essential. Make sure to have a tour guide to share captivating stories. I highly recommend Pak Sumarsono as your guide; his photography skills are exceptional.

    New building just open around 3 months ago. With now interactive show, modernize puppet story, too bad no info or movie about “keris” and “batik” history and design. Overall good place. Will love to see some improvement in the future. ?

    This is definitely one of the better museums I have seen in Indonesia. Especially the second, new building has a modern appeal, the pieces are well presented but sometimes still lack English descriptions or have a description that is somewhat lacking (comprehensibility, key info such as dates are missing, placement of small font description directly on the ground or so far from the lines you’re not supposed to cross that they’re really hard to read etc). 20k entrance fee. Focus on music instruments, batik, puppets, and some other historical artefacts of different periods.

    Very smart and beautiful museum Nice for leisure walk or adding your traditional javanese knowledge. You can also rent some traditional clothing during the tour, but preferable to book it days before your visit, even 1 week prior if you visit in weekends

    There are two buildings to this museum depicting the Javanese and Balinese culture, from Batik to wayang (masks), music instruments and puppets. At one side of the museum, you’ll see a puppet workshop showing people how puppets are made (if you’re interested, you can buy one too!) Upon entering the old building, there are a few rooms displaying statues, batik and puppets. Some exhibits have English translation but some don’t. Follow the instructions and enter the new building and yes! That’s an impressive museum! From transport to performance arts and history. What impressed me the most was the inclusion of the interactive and innovative elements there. They have creative interpretations for the puppets (less scary I’d say) and AI technology. Check out the pics and videos! Don’t miss it when you’re in Jogja! Staff there are super helpful too!

    I think we accidentally skipped a part of the older collection, but the modern building was interesting, interactive and full of great items. Good for younger visitors.
