Batik adalah salah satu cara pembuatan bahan pakaian. Selain itu batik bisa mengacu pada dua hal. Yang pertama adalah teknik pewarnaan kain dengan menggunakan malam untuk mencegah pewarnaan sebagian dari kain. Dalam literatur internasional, teknik ini dikenal sebagai wax-resist dyeing. Pengertian kedua adalah kain atau busana yang dibuat dengan teknik tersebut, termasuk penggunaan motif-motif tertentu yang memiliki kekhasan. Batik Indonesia, sebagai keseluruhan teknik, teknologi, serta pengembangan motif dan budaya yang terkait, oleh UNESCO telah ditetapkan sebagai Warisan Kemanusiaan untuk Budaya Lisan dan Nonbendawi (Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity) sejak 2 Oktober, 2009.

Kampung Wisata di Yogyakarta
Lima kampung wisata di Yogyakarta meningkatkan daya tarik wisata dengan menonjolkan keunikan lokal. Targetnya adalah wisatawan dari berbagai kalangan, baik domestik maupun mancanegara. Target tahun ini: 2,5 juta wisatawan.
"Kampung wisata merupakan salah satu program untuk meningkatkan kunjungan wisatawan. Setiap kampung wisata memiliki produk unggulan yang dapat menambah keunikan budaya Yogyakarta, kata Yulia Rostianingsih, Kepala Dinas Pariwisata dan Kebudayaan Yogyakarta, Kamis (18/7).
Lima kampung wisata tersebut adalah Dipowinatan, Cokrodiningratan, Tahunan, Kadipaten, dan Purbayan. Kelimanya memiliki keunggulan yang berbeda. Dipowinatan, misalnya, memimliki wisata urban, sedangkan Cokrodiningratan memiliki wisata lingkungan. Setiap kampung sudah mendapatkan dana pusat sebesar Rp65 juta untuk pengembangan.
Sejak diluncurkan kampung wisata pada tahun 2006 lalu, angka kunjungan wisatawan mulai meningkat. "Peningkatan paling mencolok adalah kunjungan wisatawan asing, yang biasanya hanya mencapai 180 hingga 200 ribu per tahun, meningkat menjadi 210.000 per tahunnya," jelas Yulia. Wisatawan asing ini banyak didominasi dari negara Eropa, Belgia, Jepang, dan Belanda.
Menurut Yulia, status kampung wisata dapat meningkatkan perekonomian warga sehingga beberapa daerah di Yogyakarta tengah mengajukan diri menjadi kampung wisata. Pemerintah akan melakukan peninjauan secara intensif untuk mengkaji pengajuan. Sementara itu, pada tahun ini, kampung wisata diharapkan dapat melakukan peningkatan baik dari produk maupun SDM-nya
“Sayangnya, kampung wisata belum memliki home stay sehingga wisatawan asing masih tinggal di hotel. Home stay akan menjadi pengembangan ke depannya,” kata Yulia.
Kunjungan wisata biasanya meningkat saat hari tertentu. Pada Lebaran tahun kemarin, dalam sebulan jumlah wisatawan mencapai 250.000 ribu orang. Oktober mendatang, angka wisatawan diprediksikan Yulia meningkat meningkat adanya perhelatan besar Jogja Java Carnival dan Royal Wedding, serta hari ulang tahun Yogyakarta.

Merapi Volcano
Merapi volcano is one of the world's most active and dangerous volcanoes. It contains an active lava dome which regularly produces pyroclastic flows. Eruptions occur at intervals of 1-5 years and are of low gas pressure. Since magma is poor in gas, eruptions are usually less than VEI 3 in size.
Merapi is one of the most active volcanoes in Indonesia and has produced more pyroclastic flows than any other volcano in the world. It has been active for 10,000 years.
Most eruptions of Merapi involve a collapse of the lava dome creating pyroclastic flows which travel 6 to 7 km from the summit. Some awan panas have traveled as far as 13 km from the summit, such as the deposit generated during the 1969 eruption. Velocity of pyroclastic flows can reach up to 110 km/hour. A slow up flow of andesitic magma leads to an extrusion of viscous magma, which accumulate and construct a dome in the crater.
Violent Eruptions at Merapi volcano
There is evidence that the current low level of activity may be interrupted by larger explosive eruptions. Eruptions of Merapi volcano during the 7–19th centuries A.D. were more violent than the past hundred years, and produced explosion pyroclastic flows. Widespread pyroclastic flows and surges traveled up to 25 km down the flanks of Merapi.

Scientists predict that the quiet of the 20th century will be broken by a larger
explosive eruption within coming decades. (Scientific report published in 2000). This was proved true with the large 2010-211 eruptions.

2012 ActivityA small emission of ash occurred at Merapi volcano, Indonesia on 15th July 2012. The small eruption was not followed by other signs of unrest and the alert status remained unchanged. The eruption was caused by a small collapse of the lava dome which remains unstable after the 2010-11 eruptions. Ash emission reached a height of 1 km above the crater, and ashfall occurred at Jurang Jero and Srumbung.
2010-11 Eruption
Merapi volcano began erupting on 26th October 2010. The eruption was the was the largest at the volcano in 100 years. Ash emissions reached an altitude of 40,000 ft, and 370,000 people were evacuated from a 20 km radius danger zone. Over 190 people were killed by pyroclastic flows and ashfall.

2006 Eruptions
Seismic activity began increasing at Merapi volcano in March 2006, and 10,000 residents were prepared for evacuation. On 10th April people were banned from climbing the volcano. On 12th April the Alert Level was raided from 2 to 3. An 8 km exclusion zone was placed around the volcano. On 27th April nearly 2,000 villagers were evacuated from Sidorejo and Tegalmulyo villages around Merapi volcano. On 13th May, the Alert Level was raised to the highest level 4, and about 4,500 people living near the volcano were evacuated. On 15th May pyroclastic flows traveled up to 4 km west. By 16th May, more than 22,000 people had been evacuated. On 8th June, the lava-dome growth rate at Merapi was an estimated 100,000 cubic meters per day, with an estimated volume of 4 million cubic meters. Pyroclastic flows and rockfalls decreased in frequency and intensity after 28th June 2006.

2006 Earthquakes
On 27th May 2006 a magnitude 6.3 earthquake killed about 5,400 people produced in a three-fold increase in activity at Merapi volcano. On 17th July 2006 a magnitude 7.7 earthquake hit 50 km south of Merapi volcano. The earthquake was the result of thrust-faulting on the boundary between the Australian and Sunda tectonic plates. The earthquake produced an 8 m high tsunami which hit the southern coast of Java. This event was classified as a tsunami earthquake, because of the low earthquake magnitude compared to the tsunami size. The earthquake caused 5,750 deaths, 38,560 injuries, and up to 600,000 people displaced in the Bantul-Yogyakarta area.

1994 Eruptions
On 22nd November 1994, a large number of dome-collapse nuees ardentes were generated over a period of several hours at Merapi volcano. The nuees ardentes descended mainly the Boyong valley and the Bedog valley, a tributary of the Krasak-Kecil valley. This was in contrast to the 1984 and 1992 flows which traveled exclusively towards the southwest and west.

Kraton Yogyakarta
Sultan or the King of Yogyakarta lives in kraton complex and these particular buildings were constructed in the mid-18th century. At the centre of the kraton, there is a place called Golden Pavilion (Bangsal Kencana), which has a beautifully detailed roof and some huge teak columns. This hall is surrounded by Kedhaton yard so that people must go through layers of the yard that seem like waves in order to reach the center. Other points of interest to look out for include the separate male / female entrances (with respective dragon signs), regular musical 'gamelan' performances and shadow puppetry, and the onsite Museum Kareta Kraton (Sultan's Carriage Museum).
Sultan Palace, Yogyakarta is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Yogyakarta. Sultan Palace, Yogyakarta was established in the year 1755 by Pangeran (Prince) Mangkubumi.
The Sultan Palace is popularly known as Kraton. The name originates from ke-ratu-an. The word means the dwelling place of the queen or king. Most of the buildings and structures in the Kraton area have some significance in regards to the Javanese philosophy of life.
From north part to west part of the Palace area, there are North Square, North Siti Hinggil, North Kemandhungan, Srimanganti, Kedhaton, Kemagangan, South Kemandungan, South Siti Hinggil and South Square (the yard that is protected by high walls).
In order to reach all of the places, there are nine gates (called regol) that must be passed through, namely: gerbang, pangurukan, tarub agung, brajanala, srimanganti, kamagangan, gadhung mlati, kemandhungan and gading.
