Full Description

 

Your journey begins with a convenient pickup from your accommodation in Yogyakarta and making your way to the awe-inspiring sunrise at Puntuk Setumbu Hill. It is a small hill located about 3 km west of Borobudur Temple. From its summit at dawn, you a short 10 minutes’ drive from Plataran to the starting point, continued by 15 minutes of trekking up to the summit. Traditional morning tea and coffee will be served at the summit while you are enjoying the view up there.

 

After enjoying sunrise, you will be driven to see buddhis temple Borobudur. The Borobudur Temple Compounds is one of temples that every visitor can enjoy the mystical panorama of the temple, the surrounding Kedu valley and distant mountain peaks. The trip involves the greatest Buddhist monuments in the world and was built in the 8th and 9th centuries AD during the reign of the Syailendra Dynasty. The monument is located in the Kedu Valley, in the southern part of Central Java, at the centre of the island of Java, Indonesia.

 

Next visit, you will be taken to visit Kraton or called Sultan Palace. It is a grand complex that was meticulously planned to reflect the Javanese cosmos. This elegant complex of pavilions was constructed based on ancient beliefs, of the connection between the God, human and the natural realms. Each feature holds a special symbolic meaning related to the Javanese worldview, who considers the importance of Mount Merapi and The Indian Ocean. In Sultan Palace you will be explained the history of Kraton in detail by a local guide.

 

Next in your journey, you will explore the exquisite Prambanan, Indonesia's largest temple complex, dedicated to Shiva, where you will admire three temples adorned with intricate reliefs depicting the epic Ramayana and honoring the three Hindu divinities: Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma, along with their corresponding animal.
