Discover Borobudur

Highlights

- Borobudur temple, the largest Buddhist monument in the world

Description:

To start with, you will be met by your guide at your hotel lobby.

We will bring you to the most spectacular and world’s biggest Buddhist monument complex, Borobudur, built around 800 A.D.
Looming out of a patchwork of bottle-green paddies and swaying palm tops, this colossal Buddhist relic is one of the continent’s marvels.

After the decline of Buddhism and the shift of power to East Java, the monument was abandoned soon after its completion. For centuries the complex laid forgotten, buried under layers of volcanic ash.

Climb up to the top and enjoy a wonderful view on the Menoreh Mountains. Enough time is given to stroll around the complex and to discover its beauty and learn about the story of Buddhism in Indonesia.

Afterwards we continue to visit the nearby located temples such as Pawon Temple and Mendut Temple.

Trip back to your hotel at the end of the excursion.
