About
クイックファクト: Visitors often spot tame Javan rusa deer wandering among formal lawns and centuries-old camphor trees, a calm that's rare in a capital region. A tropical greenhouse vibe appears after sudden rain, when the scent of wet earth and frangipani rises from shaded paths lined with botanical specimens.
ハイライト: Dew-damp grass often hosts dozens of Javan rusa deer at sunrise, while shafts of light pierce a canopy of banyans and camphors. A quirky tradition endures where state guests are sometimes photographed beside the deer during official visits, a practice linked to President Sukarno that produces unexpectedly intimate portraits.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes and a hat, paths can be grassy and muddy after rain.
- Bring a telephoto lens for deer and a wide-angle for the palace façade and ponds.
- Skip waiting for interior access unless you have a confirmed tour, focus on the gardens instead.
- Arrive early on weekdays to avoid crowds and get soft morning light for photos.
