View of a Tea field at Kemuning, Karanganyar Karanganyar is also home to the Mangadeg Hill (also known as Truloroyo) Mangkunegaran royal burial complex built upon a small mountain. In the immediate vicinity are the Pablengan ruins of ritual bathing pools, fed by seven natural springs. Several hundred metres away is the mausoleum complex of former President Suharto Astana Giribangun as well as the alleged final resting place of legendary Javanese leader Raden Mas Sambernyawa at the peak of this same hill, titled Argosari.
There are a substantial number of especially Javanese tourists who visit the Mangadeg and Argosari cemeteries to pray to Samboernowo for assistance in life, particularly business or political affairs, in line with the Kejawen or Kebatinan ancestor-worship/shamanic belief system.
Karanganyar also has a great waterfall called "Grojogan Sewu", which means "thousand waterfall", located in Tawangmangu District.
