Cave Goa Selarong

Selarong Cave is located at Kembang Putihan Village, Pajangan District, Bantul Regency. It is a historical cave with scenic natural view, cool air and historical traces at the karst hills. The historical value of Selarong Cave is that this cave once used by Diponegoro as a base during his guerilla against the Dutch. The war is known as the Java War which lasted for five years since 1825 – 1830. From Selarong Cave, Diponegoro planned his guerilla strategy and troops launched a sporadic attack to the Dutch army.

B. Description Object
Selarong Cave is located at Kembang Putihan Village, Guwosari, Pajangan District, Bantul Regency. It is about 13 kilometers south of Yogyakarta City or 5 kilometers north of Bantul City. The entrance ticket to Selarong Cave is very affordable. Only need Rp 2.000 per person with some additional money for the parking fee and insurance Then, we are welcomed to enjoy the various objects at Selarong Cave for free.
As we enter the gate to Selarong complex, we will be welcomed by Diponegoro statue. He is in his white robe and turban, riding on his horse looking as if leading his troops with his hand pointing forward, toward the enemy stockade. Before moving forward, it is suggested that we look at the map placed near Diponegoro statue. There are several choices of tourism objects in the map. After that, we can continued the tour into the cave. Along the passage there are sellers, mostly of old age, offering fruits which are Selarong special natural products such as sapodilla, wongai plum, guava, longan, mangosteen, banana, rambutan, and more.
After the historical remains, we can move on to the cave complex by tracing the same passage. It is said that when the rain falls, people can see waterfall flowing from the hilltop across the stairways to the cave. To get to the cave complex you must ascend a series of steps. Permanent stairways have been built to make it easier for visitors to climb and walk through the steep and difficult passage to the cave mouth. In every 10 steps there is a space large enough to take a rest while enjoying the beautiful panorama. There are also frangipani and some other trees growing on both sides of the stairways which shade the passage.
Arriving at the cave, we will see a yard. Never expect seeing a cave with a long, dark and musty trail. Selarong Cave looks more like a chamber for resting. There are two caves at the back of the yard. The one on the left side is known as Kakung Cave. The word kakung in Javanese language means male chief or respected man. It can be inferred then that this cave used to be the chamber or resting place of Diponegoro. The one on the right side, meanwhile, is called Putri Cave which signifies that this cave was inhabited by Raden Ayu Ratnaningsih, Diponegoro’s wife. The word putri in Javanese language means lady or respected woman.
Both Kakung and Putri Caves are located on the lower part of a big lime mountain, which makes it as if two holes were made deliberatily on the mountain for settlement. It was in this cave that Diponegoro planned his strategy with his followers to attack the Dutch. While quartered in Selarong Cave, Diponegoro and his troops were attacked three times by the Dutch on July 25, October 3 and 4, 1825.
Next, we can continues th adventure to the top of the karst hill. There are a series of steps on the left of Putri Cave. They are all in good condition. While ascending the steps, enjoy the scenery around. At the hill top there is an edifice functions as a view tower. From here, we can enjoy the great view and the mountain breeze while taking a rest.
