[Save this post for your next holiday]⁣ 💙Taman Sari Water Castle is a recreational as well as a meditation area for the Sultan and his family. It is actually a massive complex but most of it doesn’t exist anymore or were not in a rehabilitated condition now. The most famous one is this pool complex called “Pasirangan Umbul Binangun”, which is the bathing area for Sultan’s family. ⁣⁣There are 3 pools in this area. One for his immediate family, one for his concubines, and a more private one for the Sultan himself. Legend has it that he used the tower to oversee his concubines bathing in the pool and would choose one lucky (or not so lucky?) girl to join him in his private bath behind the tower.⁣⁣Would suggest to come here really early before it opens at 9 am because this place gets crowded pretty fast!⁣⁣⠀⠀⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣.⁣ #justbackfrom #tamansari #historicalplaces #visitjogja #Indonesiaku #yktripdiary #watercastle #clozetteid #visualwanderlust⁣
