The streets of Jalan Malioboro

Jalan Malioboro is a major shopping street in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. 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 operate along the street. Less obvious to the tourist, but more for the local population are the side streets, lanes and structures that lead on to Malioboro are as important as the street itself.

My travel mates and I named this "the Orchard Road of JOG".
