In this museum, you can find carriages owned by the royal family. Most of them were made in Netherlands. There are certain carriages that are so grand, they'll make your jaws drop.
Each one of the carriage has its own name, a name that sounds sacred. We wonder why Keraton have to name their belongings with honorific like kyai and nyai -- they even treat the item as if it has gender.
Too bad we weren't accompanied by any guide. We have unanswered questions, such as "Do different carriages own different purposes?", "We know the carriages are only used for special occasions now, but is it also the case in the old days? Did the royal family have a casual trip in one of these?", etc.
For all readers who are curious about the museum, maybe this article can give you an overview.
At this time, we saw healthy-looking horses in a stable next to the museum building. One of them is white. Looking at it, we can't help wailing, "White horse! We only lack a prince."
Unin also had this idea to borrow those horses and ride them to the next museum (fyi, the next museum is still in Keraton area, but it's not that close if we go on foot). Of course, nobody listened to her.
