Candi Borobudur




Remember to wear something to cover your legs. If not they have batiks that you can loan.










Touch the Buddha shoulders and you will get good luck




This is an amazing Hindu temple. Beautiful.

Candi Plaosan Lor

Around Candi Prambanam there are 2 more temples which you can visit. You will need to take a drive to see it. Walking to it is too hot to even think about. We went to both, one (I do not remember the name) and the 2nd on is Candi Plaosan Lor which is more magnificient compared to the other one.

Candi Prambanam


Prambanan
is the ninth century Hindu temple compound in Central Java, Indonesia, dedicated to Trimurti, the expression of God as the Creator (Brahma), the Sustainer (Vishnu) and the Destroyer (Shiva). The temple compound located approximately 18 km east of Yogyakarta city on the boundary between Yogyakarta and Central Java province.[1]

The temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, currently is the largest Hindu temple in Indonesia, and is one of the largest Hindu temples in south-east Asia. It is characterised by its tall and pointed architecture, typical of Hindu temple architecture, and by the towering 47m high central building inside a large complex of individual temples. (Wikipedia)












Its amazingly beautiful constructed Hindu Temple, it makes me think how man could actually think of building something like that.

Word of advise - bring umbrella, comfortable shoes and sunblock with you.
