History of Indonesia The first known hominid inhabitant of Indonesia was the so-called "Java Man", or Homo erectus, who lived here half a million years ago. Some 60,000 years ago, the ancestors of the present-day Papuans move eastward through these islands, eventually reaching New Guinea and Australia some 30-40,000 years ago. Much later, in about the fourth millennium B.C., they were followed by the ancestors of the modern-day Malays, Javanese and other Malayo-Polynesian groups who now make up the bulk of Indonesia's population. Trade contracts with India, China and the mainland of Southeast Asia brought outside cultural and religious influences to Ind onesia. One of the first Indianized empires, known to us now as Sriwijaya, was located on the coast of Sumatra around the strategic straits of Malacca, serving as the hub of a trading network that reached to many parts of the archipelago more than a thousand years ago.
On neighboring Java, large kingdoms of the interior of the island erected scores of exquisite of religious monuments, such as Borobudur, the largest Buddhist monument in the world. The last and most powerful of these early Hindu-Javanese kingdoms, the 14th century Majapahit Empire, once controlled and influenced much of what is now known as Indonesia, maintaining contacts with trading outposts as far away as the west coast of Papua New Guinea. Indian Muslim traders began spreading Islam in Indonesia in the eighth and ninth centuries. By the time Marco Polo visited North Sumatra at the end of the 13th century, the first Islamic states were already established there. Soon afterwards, rulers on J ava's north coast adopted the new creed and conquered the Hindu-based Majapahit Empire in the Javanese hinterland. The faith gradually spread throughout archipelago, and Indonesia is today the world's largest Islamic nation. Indonesia's abundant spices first brought Portuguese merchants to the key trading port of Malacca in 1511. Prized for their flavor, spices such as cloves, nutmeg and mace were also believed to cure everything from the plague to venereal disease, and were literally worth their weight in gold. The Dutch eventually wrested control of the spice trade from Portuguese, and the tenacious Dutch East India Company (known by initials VOC) established a spice monopoly which lasted well into the 18th century. During the 1 9th century, the Dutch began sugar and coffee cultivation on Java, which was soon providing three-fourths of the world supply of coffee. By the turn of the 20th century, nationalist stirring, brought about by nearly three centuries of oppressive colonial rule, b egan to challenge the Dutch presence in Indonesia. A four-year guerilla war led by nationalists against the Dutch on Java after World War II, along with successful diplomatic maneuverings abroad, helped bring about independence. The Republic of Indonesia, officially proclaimed on August 17th, 1945, gained sovereignty four years later. During the first two decades of independence, the republic was dominated by the charismatic figure of Sukarno, one of the early nationalists who had been imprisoned by the Dutch. General (ret.) Soeharto eased Sukarno from power in 1967. Indonesia's economy was sustained throughout the 1970's, almost exclusively by oil export. The Asian financial crisis, which broke out in mid-1997, paralyzed the Indonesian economy with the rupiah losing 80% of its value against the US dollar at the peak of the turmoil. On May 21, 1998, Soeharto resigned after 32 years in power and was replaced by B.J. Habibie following bloody violence and riots. Indonesia held its first democratic election in October 1999, which put Abdurrahman 'Gus Dur' Wahid in the role of president.

Malioboro street is a major shopping street in Yogyakarta the name is also used more generally for the neighborhood around the street. It lies north in the line between Yogyakarta Kraton. The street is the centre of Yogyakarta's largest tourist district surrounded with many hotels and restaurants nearby. Sidewalks on both sides of the street are crowded with small stalls selling a variety of goods. In the evening several open-air streetside restaurants, called lesehan, operate along the street. Less obvious to the tourist, but more for the local population, side streets, lanes and structures that lead on to Malioboro are as important as the street itself.
The magnificent Borobudur temple is the world’s biggest Buddhist monument, an ancient site widely considered to be one of the world’s seven wonders. Built in the 9th century during the reign of the Syailendra dynasty, the temple’s design in Gupta architecture reflects India's influence on the region, yet there are enough indigenous scenes and elements incorporated to make Borobudur uniquely Indonesian.
The Prambanan temple is extraordinarily beautiful building constructed in the tenth century during the reigns of two kings namely Rakai Pikatan and Rakai Balitung. The Prambanan temple build in the ninth century Hindu temple compound in located approximately 18 km east of Yogyakarta city on the boundary between Yogyakarta and Central Java province, dedicated to Trimurti, the expression of God as the Creator (Brahma), the Sustainer (Vishnu) and the Destroyer (Shiva). The Prambanan temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, currently is the largest Hindu temple in Indonesia, and is one of the largest Hindu temples in south-east Asia. It is characterised by its tall and pointed architecture, typical of Hindu temple architecture, and by the towering 47m high central building inside a large complex of individual temples and the area that now functions as beautiful park.

The beauty of green lime-scratching hill with blue seawater offers a perfect harmony, which is very natural and ideal for sun bathing.
The beach is located in Wonosari, Gunung Kidul Yogyakarta, not too far from the Kukup beach which is about 3 km. Although it's a small beach, Sundak offers exciting beauty. We do really enjoy the beauty here. If you'd like have a vacation to the beach with the atmosphere of an unspoiled nature, Sundak with all its beauty can be a choice. It's just that the beach is less developed as a tourist destination, so that existing infrastructure is also very simple.

Religion The first principle of Indonesia's ideology states that Pancasila: "belief in the one and only God". A number of different religions are practiced in the country, and their collective influence on the country's political, economical and cultural life is significant. As of 2011, the population was estimated at 245,613,043. Based on the 2010 census, 87.18% were Muslim (including Shias and Sunnis), 6.96% Protestant, 2.91% Catholic, 1.69% Hindu, 0.72%Buddhist, 0.05% Khong Hu Chu, 0.13% other, and 0.38% unstated or not asked.
Climate Yogyakarta enjoys a tropical climate, with warm sunshine and correspondingly high temperatures for the best part of the year. o o o o The average daily temperature is between 26 C and 28 C, with highs not exceeding 35 C and lows rarely dipping below 18 C. Humidity is relatively high, which can give the city a sticky feeling, especially in the rainy season when humidity can be as high as 75 per cent.Yogyakarta experiences two seasons: the dry season running from May to October and the wet season occupying the remainder of the year. While the wet season occupies a lengthy period, rainfall is not constant, with the heaviest rains experienced between January and April. The lowest temperatures are experienced between October and January, with evenings and early mornings offering pleasant cool spells. This is a popular time for visitors to visit, as are the months of May, June and July. If you decide to visit in the rainy season, be sure to pack a waterproof jacket. Daytime attire for any season needs to be modest on account of local etiquette and religious views. Lightweight and loose-fitting cotton clothing that covers your body is suitable.
Javanese People Javanese, Indonesian Orang Jawa, largest ethnic group in Indonesia, concentrated on the island of Java and numbering about 85 million in the early 21st century. The Javanese language belongs to the Austronesian (Malayo-Polynesian) family. Islam is the predominant religion, though Hindu traditions of an earlier era are still evident in many areas, and relatively few Javanese strictly observe Muslim precepts. Belief in assorted local spirits is widespread. Historically, Javanese social organization varied in structure from relatively egalitarian rural communities to the highly stratified society of the cities, with their complex court life. These differences found linguistic expression in distinct styles of speech that shifted according to status differences between the persons speaking. Today the most commonly used styles are ngoko (informal), krama (polite or deferential), and madya (between informal and polite), although there are also several others.

Dinner Having dinner in Indonesia, we usually have dinner with the whole family member in the dining room, but with Indonesia‘s condition nowadays, sometimes the family member are too busy to have dinner with the other family member so they decided to have a dinner by their own, because most of the time, they are still outside the house at 7.00 PM
