Go beyond temples and step into real village life in Jogja’s pottery village.
If you want to understand Yogyakarta beyond the temples and see traditional Jogja village life, Kasongan is worth your time.Just outside Yogyakarta, this village is known across Indonesia for its pottery. Almost every home doubles as a workshop, and generations of families have shaped, fired and sold ceramics here for decades. It’s not a show - it’s how people make a living.You’ll walk through the village and see the full process up close: clay being shaped by hand, sun-dried in courtyards, then fired in traditional kilns built beside family homes.Afterwards, you’ll step into an open studio and try it yourself. With guidance, you’ll shape your own piece of traditional pottery and understand how much skill and patience it takes. Expect about 1.5 hours of focused, creative time — and something you’ve made to take home.It's a chance to go beyond the usual sightseeing, meet local artisans, and understand the craft’s significance in their community. Whether you're travelling solo, as a couple, or with family, these authentic insights and creative activities make it a meaningful day out.What to ExpectVisit charming Kasongan village, exploring local homes and workshops filled with colourful pottery piecesWitness the entire pottery-making process, from moulding the clay to firing it in traditional kilnsCreate your own pottery masterpiece with guidance from expert instructors in their open studioGood to KnowThis is a private trip; perfect for families, couples, or small groupsThe pottery class lasts about 1.5 hours.
