There are world-class hotels, shopping malls, coffee shops, Internet cafes &amp;ndash; yet are all still ruled over by His Majesty Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono X from his official residence, the Kraton of Yogyakarta.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ask a tuk-tuk driver and you&amp;rsquo;ll be whisked out of Yogya, where you&amp;rsquo;ll also get more than you bargained for. The stunning Gunung Merapi, a volcanic fireball of a mountain, is awe-inspiring enough, but nothing matches the sheer scale of Borobudur, an enigmatic Buddhist temple that ranks as one of the most beautiful in Asia.
