Back from Indonesia

Candi Borobudur

Back from Indonesia.
Enjoy the 4-days-trip pretty much.

Candi Borobudur is a monument that may only attract tourists with buddhism background or those who are really interested in arts and architecture. Candi means temple.
It is surrounded by 5 volcanoes and 2 rivers. There is a possibility for it to disappear from the earth again as what had happened in the old days due to the earthquake caused by the eruption of the volcano around it.

Candi Prambanan

We had also visited to the Candi Prambanan, a Hindu monument, Candi Sewu (Sewu is a Javanese word that means a thousand), a buddhist monument, Kraton Palace and the ruins of the palace where the 1st to 3rd Sultans had stayed in the old days in Jyogjakarta.

Ramayana Ballet

And ya, we had also watched the Ramayana Ballet at the Prambanan theatre. Ramayana Ballet is a very beautiful Javanese arts performance in combination of dance, drama and gamelan music. In their beautiful costumes, the dancers presented the story through their graceful movements as well as various facial expressions. We enjoyed the show really much.

Sunrise at the Candi Borobudur

Besides, we had also witnessed the sun rose early in the morning at the Candi Borobudur too, every one was thrilled by the awesome view of the sunrise, it was such amazing and the surrounding was such serene at that moment.

My heartfelt thanks to our trip organizer for his effort to have the free and easy trip planned perfectly, and not forget my fellow members of the trip, who had been bringing lots of joy among us throughout this trip!
