Borobudor Temple

Borobudur is the largest Buddhist temple in the world, and ranks with Bagan in Myanmar and Angkor Wat in Cambodia as one of the great archeological sites of the world.

It is estimated to be around 12 centuries or 1200 years old.

The area is surrounded by beautiful scenery of Central Java’s nature that you can only find there.  The temple sits majestically on a hilltop overlooking lush green fields and distant hills.

Built between AD 780 and 840 during the reign of Syailendra dynasty, the temple’s design in Gupta architecture reflects India’s influence on the region. However, there are enough indigenous scenes and elements incorporated to make Borobudur uniquely Indonesian.

Prambanan Temple

This is the most famous and also the most magnificent of Central Java’s temples or more precisely complex of temples.

Prambanan is the masterpiece of Hindu culture of the tenth century.

The top of the main shrine is visible from a great distance and rises high above the scattered ruins of the former temples.

King Balitung Maha Sambu built the Prambanan temple in the middle of the ninth century.

Dieng Plateau is a natural wonder tucked in the highlands of central Java, Indonesia, not too far from the city of Yogyakarta. This former caldera complex has everything from active volcanoes to ancient Hindu temples, smoking sulfuric springs, multicolored lakes, fresh mountain air, sunrise views, and endless terraces covering the hills in every direction. Dieng means ‘Abode of the Gods,’ and that name seems about right for the incredible scale and mystery of this place! One of the main attractions is watching the sunrise over Mount Sundoro, one of Java’s active volcanoes.

 It’s also fresher up here as it we are almost above the clouds. The plateau offers two sunrises, the golden sunrise and the silver sunrise – the first one between 5:30 and 6 am, is  sparkling golden red.
