You will find a pretty ‘temple’ behind a mountain. I’ve been here many years ago and surprised to see lots of improvement in this area. I love this place because of the landscape and stone...

Historical place where kings palace and Temple. It is a very beautiful place and well maintained.you have to climb by stairs for 5-10mins. This place can tell us how historical Indonesia was and how it was destroyed later. Now the only entrance is that we can see the rest is ruins. The Indonesian archeology department must focus on this site and use modern tools to excavate the remains.

Historical temples, older than Borobudur and Prambanan. It took us almost 2 hours to see all the places. I recommend paying for a tour guide so you know all the enchanting stories behind every corner. The view is very beautiful, you can see the Prambanan temple from here. I would love to go back and watch the sunset here.
