An alun-alun (Javanese, correctly hyphenated but occurs occasionally without hyphen; also found as aloen-aloen, aloon aloon, and erroneously alon-alon) is a large, central, open lawn square common to villages, towns and cities in Indonesia. Commonly, alun-alun in modern-day Indonesia refers only to the two large open squares of kraton palace compounds. A highlight of the tour is a visit to the famous Alun-alun Kidul: the city's central square. The guide narrates fascinating stories related to the square's cultural and mystical significance as visitors try out traditional games and enjoy the street performers.
