Wayang Golek Menak performances at Keraton Yogyakarta feature traditional wooden puppets used to tell captivating stories, often based on Javanese folklore and historical tales. These puppet shows are distinct from the more common Wayang Kulit (shadow puppetry) and are known for their vibrant wooden figures and colorful staging. These performances are held on Wednesdays at 10:00 AM in the palace, offering visitors a unique cultural experience. The shows combine intricate puppetry with live gamelan music, creating an engaging atmosphere that reflects the rich artistic heritage of Yogyakarta.
