After enjoying the architecture of old Batik Factory, we continued to the first destination of Surakarta Prince Residence, Ndalem Sasonomulyo. Uniquely, we did not enter front the main gate of the residence (south gate), but we entered from back part of the residence in which we needed to pass crowded housing area which is called as mager sari. Mager sari is the concept of living in an area owned by more respected or prosperous people especially the king; without paying and without owning the land. Basically people who do mager sari are abdi dalem (Royal assistant) From the northern gate, we directly saw the front part of the rooms in eastern side of the residence."

DPRD Bali Dituding 'Wacana Doang' | lensaINDONESIA
DPRD Bali Dituding 'Wacana Doang' | lensaINDONESIA: "LENSAINDONESIA.COM: DPRD Bali yang selama ini siap menjadi fungsi kontrol dituding hanya ‘wacana doang’. Pasalnya, wakil rakyat ini enggan bereaksi ketika sejumlah dinas melakukan ‘kenakalan’ hingga terbukti melakukan korupsi. Bahkan, wakil rakyat ini diduga hanya mengumbar janji akan melakukan pemanggilan, meski kenyataannya tidak pernah dilakukan.
Hal itu diungkapkan pengamat dari Unud (Universitas Udayana) Drs Ida Bagus Jelantik MHum. Diantaranya, keluhan masyarakat soal izin taksi, kemahalan pengadaan geguntangan, kasus X-Ray hingga kasus LED TV."
