Yogyakarta City in Indonesia has 14 districts. One of them is Kotagede. This city is considered as a historic neighborhood in Yogyakarta. Established in the 16th century, Kotagede remains as the first capital of Mataram Sultanate. Nowadays, there are some of the remains of the old Kotagede such as palace, the royal cemetery, the royal mosque, and defensive walls and moats. Several years ago, during the May 2006 Java earthquake, many old buildings were destroyed. The question is, how should government revitalize this city of heritage?
