Borobudur: The Largest Buddhist Temple in the World
Borobudur Temple is a 9th-century Mahayana Buddhist temple in Magelang Regency, not far from the town of Muntilan, in Central Java, Indonesia. The temple consists of nine stacked platforms, six square and three circular, topped by a central dome. The temple is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues. The central dome is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues, each seated inside a perforated stupa. The temple was built by the Kingdom of Sailendra, a Sailendra dynasty that ruled Central Java between the 8th and 9th centuries. The temple design follows Javanese Buddhist architecture, which blends the Indonesian indigenous form of the stupa with the Indian Gupta style. It is believed that the temple was a place for the royal family and Buddhist monks to study and meditate. Borobudur was abandoned following the 14th-century decline of Hindu kingdoms in Java and the Javanese conversion to Islam. War and earthquakes damaged the temple, and it was forgotten until it was rediscovered in the 19th century by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles. It has since been restored and is a popular tourist destination.

Do not hesitate, book her as your guide
We booked a trip to Borobudur and Prambanan with her. The communication before the trip was very clear and she helped us get the tickets to climb to the top. On the day she was on time and everything went smoothly. She added two small extra stops because of our interests and we also had a nice lunch. Tini has a vast amount of knowledge and we loved hearing all the stories. We can only recommend booking a tour with her.
