    The museum has several unique, endemics and rare collections of Indonesian flora and fauna. Students can improve their knowledge on Indonesian plants and animals. This museum is good for educational recreation about Indonesian biodiversity. Nowadays, this museum appear with new look, more beautiful in appearance.

    Both of my son were so excited to see things inside the museum. It has quite a lot of preserved animals, from the Big one like golden cat, to the small one like intestinal worms. My son loves insects and animals, that will explain why they were enthusiastic about died animals in jars and glass cupboards. From my point of view, this museum definitely needs quite a lot of maintenance. The things inside are so precious, so let's put them in a good place. A broken ceiling, died bulbs, missing labels, dirty glass, were some that can be repaired to make this museum more attractive. Hello crazy rich people, i hope some of you would like to give some touch ups to this museum :) Oh ya, the ticket is so cheap. Less than 10k.

    An old museum run by Gadjah Mada University. It is clean and the staffs are friendly. There are some collections of mummified animals and skeletons. It needs something to work on to attract more visitors.

    I love this place, though its kinda dusty n dark n old. They should have done some reconstruction or update/add new collections. But for idr 5k of tickets, i still enjoyed it.

    It has a rather extensive Indonesian animal specimens albeit a bit worn out. If you're into checking out animal bones, this is the place for you. The staffs are quite helpful. My kid had a great time checking out the skeletons.

👍👍 The old buildings, the street and the attraction is really something. The vibes of surrounding are giving another sense of Jogja at the old times. Walking a bit, you'll find Keraton which is the king's palace and also the famous Malioboro street. Evening to the night time is a perfect timing here.
