Triwindu Antique Market

As the original Triwindu market located on Jl. Diponegoro between Jl. Slamet Riyadi and Mangkunegaran Palace is being revitalized (scheduled to open midyear), the merchants are now temporarily gathered in the area of Sriwedari Park. Once inside, your eyes will be spoiled by the extent and range of antiques and memorabilia laid out simply along the kiosks. Choose whatever antiques you are seeking from various sculptures, Buddhist statues, lanterns, ancient coins and jewelry without the merchants hassling you. Be aware of the age of each “antique”, though, because some of the items here are imitations, despite vendors’ claims that their goods date back hundreds of years.
