Borobudur Temple

Another early start! But not so early this time, only 05:00! We visited Borobudur Temple first, arriving quite early and were surprised that the crowds were so small. Borobudur Temple is represented by Buddhist theory. It was built in the 9th century, stands 35m high and has a 118m square base. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1991, and is one of the most famous temples in all of Indonesia. There were countless Buddhist sculptures inside the ‘stupas’ (Bell-shaped stones with diamond cut-outs). After our visit was done, we drove to Prambanan Temple. Prambanan Temple was also built in the 9th century,  has an inner and outer zone, and amazingly has 240 temples inside. The temple is dedicated to the Hindu gods Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. After indulging in a sub-par buffet, we survived the glistening heat and took more photos of the Prambanan complex.Les mer
