Admire Borobudur Temple

Borobudur Temple is one of the most famous attractions in Indonesia and consists of a large Buddhist temple complex in Central Java. It is easy to visit Borobudur from the neighboring city of Yogyakarta on a day trip, and the temple is an impressive relic of a different time, having been built in the 9th century. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has an amazing 72 sculpted figures of Buddha. Borobudur is also the largest Buddhist temple in the world, and you can climb all over the structure, including up to the central platform which affords you amazing views over the rest of the complex. It is particularly beautiful at sunrise and sunset so try to time your visit to make the most of the natural light show here.

Located on the island of Java, the magnificent Borobudur temple is the world’s biggest Buddhist monument, an ancient site widely considered to be one of the world’s seven wonders. The temple sits majestically on a hilltop overlooking lush green fields and distant hills. Built in the 9th century during the reign of the Syailendra dynasty, the temple’s design in Gupta architecture reflects India’s influence on the region, yet there are enough indigenous scenes and elements incorporated to make Borobudur uniquely Indonesian.
