Yogyakarta: Oud Djocdja , Transformatorhuis van ANIEM bij Nieuwe Wijk - Jalan Ngadikan - Jalan F.M. Noto - Jalan Serma Taruna Ramli
Few places in the Special Region of Yogyakarta have a history as closely tied to colonial-era urban planning as Kotabaru in Yogyakarta. Developed in the early 20th century as a residential quarter under Dutch rule, Kotabaru retains broad, intersecting streets and an unusually ordered layout amid the dense modern city. Jalan F.M. Noto meets Jalan Ngadikan and Jalan Serma Taruna Ramli here, near the Gardu ANIEM transformer house, a reminder of the neighbourhood’s early electrical infrastructure. The district lies on the east side of the Code River. Its former Dutch name, Nieuwe Wijk, survives in historical references, while Indonesian street names firmly place it in present-day Yogyakarta.
