Kantin Beringharjo

History of the Beringharjo MarketnnThe Beringharjo Market area was originally a banyan forest. Not long after the establishment of the Sultan's Palace in 1758, this market area was made a place of economic transactions by the citizens of Yogyakarta and its surroundings. Hundreds of years later on March 24, 1925, the Yogyakarta Palace commissioned the Nederlansch Indisch Beton Maatschappij (Dutch Indies Concrete Company) to build market booths. By the end of August 1925, 11 kiosks had been completed and the others had followed gradually.nnThe name Beringharjo was given after the reign of Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono VIII on March 24, 1925. Sri Sultan Hamngku Buwono VIII ordered that all agencies under the auspices of the Sultanate of Yogyakarta use Javanese. The name Beringharjo was chosen because it means a region that was originally a banyan forest (bering) which is expected to provide welfare (harjo). The name Beringharjo is considered appropriate because the market location is a former banyan forest and the banyan tree is a symbol of greatness and protection for many people.nnBeringharjo Market has a historical and philosophical value with the Sultan's Palace because it has gone through three phases, namely the kingdom, colonialism, and independence. The development of Beringharjo Market is one part of the design of the Yogyakarta Sultanate city planning called Catur Gatra Tunggal. This urban planning pattern includes four things namely the palace as the center of government, the square as a public space, the mosque as a place of worship, and the market as the center of economic transactions.
