Traditional dance is an art form that attracts many to the islands of Bali and Java, and one of the finest Javanese troupes we’ve seen is the Ramayana Ballet Dance troupe performing at the Purawisata Amusement park each evening at 8 pm. You can combine the show with a terrific dinner that begins at 7pm at the Gazebo Garden Restaurant, which iactually part of the theatre. This amazing performance has been given for more than 30 years, elaborately staged, and lighted. This is a “can’t miss” in Jogjakarta, and a favorite of ours
